After that, a following screen is launched.
Integrated Code Clone Analysier(ICCA) is a comprehensive code clone analysis environment.
ICCA can analysis code clones included in source codes.
Currently, ICCA consists of tree components, Gemini, Aries, and Libra.
Here, we introduce these components briefly.
Gemini is a code clone analyis component.
Gemini has the Scatter Plot and the Metric Graph,
which enables user to browse source codes of code clones and filter code clones effecfively.
Aries is a refactoring support component based on code clone analysis.
Aries can detect code clones that can be easily refactored.
Aries characterizes code clones using several metrics, which enables user to refactor code clones effectively.
Libra is debugging support component for code clone.
If user have a code fragment with which he/she want to get code clones, Libra is very useful.
The following table summarizes functions of each component.
| browsing the distribution of code clones | filtering code clones by metrics | filtering code clones by their units | detecting code clones with a specified fragment | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Gemini | ¡û | ¡û | ||
| Aries | ¡û¡Ê¢¨¡Ë | ¡û | ||
| Libra | ¡û |
| Scatter Plot | Metric Graph (Metric View) | Clone Set List | File List | Directory Tree | Source Code View | Variable List | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Gemini (Clone Set Base Analysis View) | ¡û | ¡û | ¡û | ||||
| Gemini (File Base Analysis View) | ¡û | ¡û | ¡û | ¡û | |||
| Aries | ¡û¡Ê¢¨¡Ë | ¡û | ¡û | ¡û | |||
| Libra | ¡û |
Each component uses CCFinder to detect code clones.
In followings, we describe the installation of ICCA, and more concrete usege of each component.
JRE(Java Runtime Environment) is required to execute ICCA.
You have to install JRE at first.
Install JRE(version 1.4 or above is required) from the web site of Sun Microsystems.
Please read the manual included in CCFindeer package
Here, test whether icca is installed correctly.
At first, input "java -jar icca.jar" in command prompt.
After that, a following screen is launched.
You will find label "analyze refactoring-oriented code clone".
push the next button of its label.
Next, the following screen will be displayed.
Pushing the "refer" button launches the following file selecting dialog box.
Here, for testing, select sample.xml which is in sample directory, and bush the "Start Aries GUI" button.
If following screen is displayed, your installation of ICCA succeeded.
