-
public class FollowFlow extends java.lang.Object
FollowFlow follows the program's code flow either forward or backward from an initial address set. It adds the flow addresses to the initial address set by flowing "from" the initial addresses in the forward direction or by flowing "to" the initial addresses when used in the backward direction. The flow can be limited by indicating the flow types (i.e. unconditional call, computed jump, etc.) that we do NOT want to follow.

Method Detail
-
getFlowAddressSet
public AddressSet getFlowAddressSet(TaskMonitor monitor)
Determines the address set that flows from the addresses in this FollowFlow object's initialAddresses set. The address set is determined by what addresses were provided when the FollowFlow was constructed and the type of flow requested. This method follows flows in the forward direction.- Parameters:
monitor
- a cancellable task monitor, may be null- Returns:
- the resulting address set.
-
getFlowToAddressSet
public AddressSet getFlowToAddressSet(TaskMonitor monitor)
Determines the address set that flows to the addresses in this FollowFlow object's initialAddresses set. The address set is determined by what addresses were provided when the FollowFlow was constructed and the type of flow requested. The constructor indicated the flow types not to be followed. All others will be traversed in the backwards direction to determine the addresses that are flowing to those in the initial set.- Parameters:
monitor
- a cancellable task monitor, may be null- Returns:
- the resulting address set.
