# DASCA
## Installation
### Prerequisites
* Java 8 (Java 9 or later is currently *not* supported)
* Android SDK (to obtain dx.jar)
* Eclipse Oxygen, including
* The Plug-in Development Environment (PDE)
* JavaScript Development Tools (JSDT)
* Gradle Integration (Buildship)
* [Scala IDE and Scalatest Runner (the latter is optional)](http://download.scala-ide.org/sdk/lithium/e44/scala211/stable/site)
* [CVC3](http://cs.nyu.edu/acsys/cvc3/) including the Java bindings for CVC3
### 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
```
### WALA configuration
DASCA (and the underlying WALA setup) is tested with Java version 8.
If DASCA is installed using Java 8, there should be no need for updating
the WALA configuration.
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 `wala.properties`
file, e.g.
``` sh
cd DASCA/
echo "java_runtime_dir = <PATH-TO-JDK>" >> externals/WALA/com.ibm.wala.core/dat/wala.properties
```
Don't forget to adjust the path to the Java JDK accordingly, i.e.,
the `<PATH-TO-JDK>` 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 Maven Projects`:
1. Select the DASCA folder as source for the import
2. Import all offered projects
