# Sarras
**Note:** IN PROGRESS ... NOT IMPLEMENTED YET, STAY TUNED!!!
## What is Sarras?
**Sarras** is [Reflection Configuration File](https://github.com/oracle/graal/blob/master/substratevm/REFLECTION.md) Generator tool for **Graal Substrate VM** by Static and Dynamic Profiling of Java Applicatons.
See the technical discussion about the approach: https://github.com/oracle/graal/issues/476
### Static Profiling
Parses bytecode of all classes in the given jar, introspectes reflective calls (class/method/field accesses through reflection, etc ...) and adds their configurations to the generated reflection configuration file.
### Dynamic Profiling
Attaches to a regular Java application (not from native image) as Java agent and intercepts reflection calls (also includes `Class.forName(...)` and `ClassLoader.loadClass(...)` calls). So it can collect information at runtime about which classes/methods/fields are accessed/referenced through reflection and adds their configurations to the generated reflection configuration file.
## Where the Name `Sarras` Come From?
> Sarras is a mystical island to which the Holy Grail is brought in the Arthurian legend.
