What is frama-c-base
frama-c-base is:
Frama-C gathers several analysis techniques in a single collaborative framework, based on analyzers (called “plug-ins”) that can build upon the results computed by other analyzers in the framework.
Thanks to this approach, Frama-C provides sophisticated tools, including:
- an analyzer based on abstract interpretation (Value plug-in);
- a program proof framework based on weakest precondition calculus (WP plug-in);
- a program slicer (Slicing plug-in);
- a tool for verification of temporal (LTL) properties (Aora? plug-in);
- several tools for code base exploration and dependency analysis (plug-ins From, Impact, Metrics, Occurrence, Scope, etc.).
These plug-ins communicate between each other via the Frama-C API and via ACSL (ANSI/ISO C Specification Language) properties.
This package provides the library of Frama-c which is useful to build plugins for Frama-c, the command-line tools, and the graphical interface.
