Abstract
An apparatus for detecting a source code error location in a mixed-mode program is disclosed. The apparatus may include a compiler, a mapping table generator, a simulator, a comparison data generator and an error location detector. The apparatus extracts low-level data while simulating a verification program and while simulating a reference program. The low-level data is mapped to mapping tables for a verification program and a reference program, and by comparing the tables it is determined if there is an error in the mixed-mode program and if so, where.
