Abstract

A method, system and computer program product for performing error correction are disclosed. The method includes performing on source code a selected compilation operation from among a set of compilation operations and, responsive to encountering an error in the selected compilation operation, running an error handler to isolate the error utilizing data logged for the compilation operation. Responsive to determining that the error handler has not sufficiently isolated the error, a source code modifier is run to modify a portion of the source code selected by reference to the data logged for the compilation operation.
