# DASCA
## Installation
### Prerequisites
* Java 8 (Java 9 or later is currently *not* supported)
* Eclipse Oxygen, including the following additional packages:
* From the Eclipse Marketplace:
* The Plug-in Development Environment (PDE)
* JavaScript Development Tools (JSDT)
* Gradle Integration (Buildship)
* From the [Scala IDE Update Site](http://scala-ide.org/download/current.html)
* [Scala IDE and Scalatest Runner (the latter is optional)](http://download.scala-ide.org/sdk/lithium/e47/scala212/stable/site)
* The native libraries and the JNI packages for [CVC3](http://cs.nyu.edu/acsys/cvc3/).
On a Debian-based Linux system, you need to install the package `libcvc3-5-jni`. CVC3 is
only required for the sub-project `com.logicalhacking.dasca.dataflow` and the
corresponding tests.
Note, if you install the [Eclipse for Java EE Developers](http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/release/2018-09/r/eclipse-ide-java-ee-developers),
you should get a version that includes already PDE, JSDT, and Buildship. Thus, you only need
to add the Scala IDE.
### Checkout
The repository can be cloned as usual:
``` sh
git clone https://git.logicalhacking.com/DASCA/DASCA.git
```
Note, if you authorized to access the confidential test cases of
DASCA, you can obtain them by executing
``` sh
git submodule update --init --recursive
```
### Configuration (optional)
The dataflow analysis can be configured in various ways in the
`com.logicalhacking.dasca.dataflow/config/main.config` file. Most importantly,
if you experience problems or want to optimize the performance (e.g., by
analyzing the programs based on a different Java version), you might need to
configure the location of the Java JDK. The JDK used as part of the static
analysis is configured in the file
`com.logicalhacking.dasca.dataflow/config/main.config`, e.g.
``` sh
cd DASCA/
echo "java_runtime_dir = " >> ./com.logicalhacking.dasca.dataflow/config/main.config
```
Don't forget to adjust the path to the Java JDK accordingly, i.e.,
the `` should point to the directory containing the file
`rt.lib`.
### How to Compile
First check that the variable `JAVA_HOME` is configured correctly, to ensure
that Java 8 is used, e.g.:
``` sh
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64
export PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH
```
The project can be compiled using gradle
``` sh
./gradlew clean assemble test
```
### Import into Eclipse
All projects can be imported into a (fresh) Eclipse workspace
using `File -> Import -> Gradle -> Existing Gradle Projects`:
1. Select the `DASCA` folder as source for the import
2. Import all offered projects
