Katana databas 1.0

Sammanfattning: The task to this thesis has been to create an application, Katana-databas 1.0, for analysing c-code. The generated output gets stored in a data structure which content in the end of the program run gets written in a textfile which gets used by Katana. It's a tool for reverse engineering, developed by Johan Kraft at Mälardalens institute. Katana-databas has got the following limitations. (1) It can only handle preprocessed files, meaning it doesn't contain any rows beginning with "#". (2) Only complete files can be handled. (3) No references to unknown functions or variables are allowed. (4) A further limitation is that the application can't handle any ADT's. It can only handle primitive types. (5) Finally the application is only written for pure c-code, and thus doesn't handle code written C++. The task has been solved by creating an automatically generated lexer with Flex and Bison rules in Visual Studio. There after a limited parser has been developed which purpose is to process the lexemes which the lexer generates. The underlying causes for the thesis is to replace Understand with Katana-databas. Katana has this far used the database in Understand, but it contains closed source code. What is seeked is open source code, which Katana-databas is based on.
