- Pointer analysis
Unreferenced date November 2006 In computer science pointer analysis , or points to analysis , is a static code analysis technique that establishes which pointer computer programming pointer s, or heap references, can point to which variables or storage locations. It is often a component of more complex analyses such as escape analysis . A generalization of pointer analysis is shape analysis software shape analysis . Introduction Performing pointer analysis on all but the smallest of programs is a very resource intensive activity. Various simplifications have been made to reduce this overhead, the disadvantages of these simplifications is that the calculated set of objects pointed to may be larger than it is in practice. Simplifications include Treating all references to a structured object as being to one object. Ignoring flow of control when analysing which objects are assigned to pointers, known as context insensitive pointer analysis when ignoring the context in which function calls are made or flow insensitive pointer analysis when ignoring the control flow within a procedure .
