Abstract: A method and apparatus are disclosed for upgrading libraries in a source code program by evaluating libraries in the source code program for predetermined selection criteria specifying library performance limitations to identify at least a first library which does not meet the plurality of predetermined selection criteria and then identifying a first alternative library that is suitable for substitution for the first library so that the source code program may be automatically modified to replace the first library with the first alternative library, thereby generating a modified source code program having an upgraded library functionality.

Abstract: A method and apparatus are disclosed for finding overlong source code segments (e.g., methods) by evaluating input source code segments for a plurality of predetermined code metric values in order to identify candidate source code segments (e.g., non-autogenerated methods) which do not meet a first code metric value and to assess each candidate source code segment against a second code metric value to identify different sets of candidate source code segments (e.g., test methods and normal methods) so that each set of candidate source code segments may be assessed against a tailored set of code length thresholds to identify any overlong source code segment having a code length which meets or exceeds at least two of the tailored set of code length thresholds.
