Abstract

A technique is provided for administering references to a subject process filesystem during translation of subject code into target code in a dynamic binary translator. The subject code for execution on a subject processor is received by a translator, and corresponding target code for execution on the target processor is generated. The translator is arranged to establish, populate and maintain a process data structure, so that code can be generated by the translator in which subject references to the subject process filesystem are handled effectively.
