摘要： Techniques and tools for implementing a source code annotation language are described. In one aspect, keywords are added to a function interface to define a contract for the function independent of function call context. In another aspect, annotations are inserted at global variables, formal parameters, return values, or user-defined types. The annotations include, for example, properties and qualifiers. A property can indicate, for example, a characteristic of a buffer. In another aspect, an annotation indicates that a value has usability properties sufficient to allow a function to rely on the value, where the usability properties depend on value type.

摘要： A system and method employing pre- and/or post-condition(s) specified at a source code level and persisted (e.g., in associated object code and/or a specification repository) facilitating static checking of the object code is provided. The system and method are based, at least in part, upon a framework that employs rules for using an interface to be recorded as declarative specifications in an existing language. The system can employ a range of annotations that allow a developer to specify interface rule(s) with varying precision. At the simplest end of the range, a specifier can mark those methods that allocate and release resource(s). A specifier can also limit the order in which an object's methods may be called to the transitions of a finite state machine. At the more complex end of the range, a specifier can give a method a plug-in pre- and post condition, which is arbitrary code that examines an object's current state and a static approximation of the method's actuals, decides whether the call is legal and returns the object's state after the call.
