Technical Briefing on srcML & srcDiff: Infrastructure to Support Exploring, Analyzing, and Differencing of Source CodeResearch Track at Humphreys

This technology briefing is intended for those interested in constructing custom software analysis and manipulation tools to support research. The briefing is also aimed at researchers interested in leveraging syntactic differencing in their investigations. srcML (srcML.org) is an infrastructure consisting of an XML representation for C/C++/C#/Java source code along with efficient parsing technology to convert source code to-and-from the srcML format. srcDiff (srcDiff.org) is an infrastructure supporting syntactic source-code differencing and change analysis. srcDiff leverages srcML along with an efficient differencing algorithm to produce deltas that accurately model developer edits. In this tech briefing, we give an overview of srcML and srcDiff along with a tutorial of how to use them to support research efforts. The briefing is also a forum to seek feedback and input from the community on what new enhancements and features will better support software engineering research.
