  • INTER-PROCEDURAL DEAD CATCH HANDLER OPTIMIZATIONS
    Publication number: 20130061215
    Abstract: Whole program analysis during a link time code generation part of compilation can be used to detect and eliminate dead catch handlers. If all catch handlers of a try clause in a computer program are found to be dead then the try clause can also be eliminated. Detection of dead catches can be automatic, using iterative propagation of the types of thrown exceptions from callee function to caller function from bottom to top in the call-graph and iterative propagation of the types of in-flight exceptions from caller function to callee function from top to bottom in the call-graph.
