Abstract

Despite many research efforts to automate API usage migration, it remains often a manual task for developers. We aim to reduce the developer’s pain by exploring ways to integrate the migration process into the IDE. Our migration workbench leverages API usage examples and interactive refactorings to migrate code from one API version to the other.
