14th Working Conference on Reverse Engineering (WCRE 2007)
Reverse Engineering of Graphical User Interfaces Using Static Analyses
Vancouver, BC, Canada
October 28-October 31
ISBN: 0-7695-3034-6
This paper describes static analyses for reverse engi- neering graphical user interfaces (GUIs). These analy- ses, implemented in the Bauhaus tool suite, support typical maintenance tasks like migrating from a hand-written GUI to so-called GUI builders and redocumentation of the GUI. Our tool extracts the program's windows and their struc- ture, the attributes of the widgets and their values, the GUI events that might occur at runtime, and the event handlers associated with those events. We explain our approach and report encouraging results for several programs.
