ABSTRACT

The Ada Semantic Interface Specification (ASIS) is an interface between an Ada environment and any tool requiring information from it. An Ada environment comprises valuable semantic and syntactic information that can be exploited for automated code analysis. ASIS provides an open and published callable interface that gives access to this information; further, ASIS has been designed to be independent of underlying Ada environment implementations, thus supporting portability of code analysis tools while relieving tool developers from needing to understand the complexities of an Ada environment's proprietary and evolving internal representation.
