Semantic Analysis of Source Code in Object Oriented Programming. A Case Study for C#
Journal Title: Romanian Journal of Human - Computer Interaction - Year 2016, Vol 9, Issue 2
Abstract
This paper describes the CSCRO ontology and the Sharp RDF system, used together to semantically analyze the C# source code. The CSCRO ontology formally describes the domain of C# programming language, in which the concepts are represented as classes, properties and individuals. The purpose of the project is to provide the ability to retrieve information about the source code in form of metadata. The first step to achieve this is to incrementally build a graph-oriented knowledge-base from plain source code, based on the ontology. This is done using a convenient format like the Resource Description Framework (RDF). Having the knowledge base in place, it is easy to query the system (e.g. SPARQL) about its interacting components and services, retrieving data in a machine readable format. Going further, an answering mechanism could be applied for enabling natural language questions on the knowledge base.
