Automating adaptive maintenance changes with SrcML and LINQ

Abstract

Automated program transformation can significantly improve the speed and accuracy of adaptive maintenance tasks. However, developers typically eschew program transformation because of the difficulty in creating, using, and maintaining transformations. They may also be unwilling to learn a new technique that will be used infrequently. We present an approach that leverages programmers' existing knowledge of C# and LINQ to drastically reduce the learning curve associated with program transformation.
