Abstract
A method is provided to remediate defects in first computer program code that can be used to configure a computer to produce code for use by the same or a different computer configured using second computer program code to use the produced code to produce output information, the method comprising: configuring a computer to perform static analysis of the first program to produce an information structure in a non-transitory computer readable storage device that associates a respective code statement of the first program code with a respective context, wherein the context associates a parser state with a potential defect in the produced code; identify a defect in the first computer program code that is associated with the respective code statement; and determining a remediation for the identified defect.
