Api hyperlinking via structural overlap

Fan Long, Xi Wang, Yang Cai

Abstract

This paper presents a tool Altair that automatically generates API function cross-references, which emphasizes reliable structural measures and does not depend on specific client code. Altair ranks related API functions for a given query according to pair-wise overlap, i.e., how they share state, and clusters tightly related ones into meaningful modules.
