Graphs

[mariem]

Hello,
How I can see control flow graphs of the program and a program
dependence graph ?

Thank you for your help.
Mariem.

Sorry for letting your message be delayed in the moderation queue;

sometimes messages can get stuck there longer than we'd like.

The short answer is that the easiest way to see CFGs and PDGs in graph
form from Vine is by using options like "-cfg" and "-pdg" to the
"utils/irtrans" program. People are often surprised that these graphs
are larger than they expect for binaries, so I'd suggest you start by
viewing graphs for some hand-written Vine IR programs, and then for
individual functions, before you try constructing such graphs for
complete programs.

This topic has come up a few times before on the mailing list, so you
may find those discussions have more information. For instance:

Hope this helps,
