Dear all, I was wondering if a static code analysis tool has been packaged for Debian. For example, I'm looking for something that would generate a call-graph, i.e. which Java methods call a particular method and the other way around. A tool that comes to my mind is Soot [1]. As far as I can tell, it is free software (licensed under LGPLv2.1). However, I don't see it packaged for Debian. How come? I know compilers and IDEs provide some static code analysis, but there are other than things done by the compilers and IDEs a Java developer would be interested in, such as the call-graph case mentioned above. I want to use this information (the call-graph) in a program analysis tool. Basically, I just want to check if there is already a tool for static code analysis for Java along the lines described above, which is present in Debian and that I am not aware of. If not, packaging Soot sounds like the way to go. [1] https://github.com/Sable/soot -- Kind regards, Marko Dimjašević http://dimjasevic.net/marko
