Abstract

Transforming dynamic code. The method includes obtaining one or more first data structures defining constructs in a body of dynamic language source code. From the one or more first data structures, identifier information is extracted for one or more of the defined constructs. Knowledge about the constructs is augmented. Using the identifier information and augmented knowledge, metadata is generated about the body of the dynamic language source code. The generated metadata is represented as a symbol table. Using the symbol table, the body of dynamic language source code is transformed.
