First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method of facilitating detection of externally referenced interfaces of a program, said method comprising:
- obtaining a program for which one or more externally referenced interfaces of the program are to be detected; and
detecting the one or more externally referenced interfaces without having to execute the program during runtime.

Abstract
Externally referenced interfaces of a program are statically detected. The static detection of the externally referenced interfaces is performed prior to runtime and without the source code of the program. Input to the static detection is the compiled output of the program, and the output is a list of the externally referenced interfaces of the program.
