ABSTRACT:
Techniques for analyzing object-oriented computer programs are provided. A snapshot of the objects that are active at a specific point in time during execution may be stored. An analysis tool may be utilized to generate hypertext documents that allow a user to analyze the active objects. Additionally, a user may compare two different snapshots of active objects at two different run-times so that, for example, new instances of a class may be easily identified.
