Abstract

Using metamodels during context-sensitive analyzes of reusable components of computer software applications, including identifying entry and exit paths into and from a reusable component within a metamodel of a computer application development environment, determining during a static analysis of a computer software application that navigation will proceeds along a path corresponding in the metamodel to such an entry or exit path, retaining, if an entry path, an identifier of an invoking node along the path within the computer software application, and, if an exit path, for each terminal node along each of a plurality of paths from the reusable component within the computer software application, comparing an identifier of an invoking node preceding the terminal node with the retained invoking node identifier, and determining, if the invoking node identifiers match, that the path among the plurality of paths is a correct path for a current context of the static analysis.
