ESC/Java

ESC/Java

ESC/Java (and more recently ESC/Java2), the "Extended Static Checker for Java," is a programming tool that attempts to find common run-time errors in Java programs by static analysis of the program text. Recent versions of ESC/Java are based around the Java Modeling Language (JML). Users can control the amount and kinds of checking by annotating their programs with specially formatted comments or "pragmas".

ESC/Java was originally developed at the Compaq Systems Research Center (SRC). SRC launched the project in 1997, after work on their original extended static checker, ESC/Modula-3, ended in 1996. In 2002, SRC released the source code for ESC/Java and related tools.

The University of Nijmegen's "Security of Systems" group released alpha versions of ESC/Java2, an extended version of ESC/Java that processes the JML specification language through 2004. Since 2004, ESC/Java2 development has been managed by the KindSoftware Research Group at University College Dublin. Over the years, ESC/Java2 has gained many new features including the ability to reason with multiple theorem provers and integration with Eclipse.
