CACHING RUN-TIME VARIABLES IN OPTIMIZED CODE

摘要

In one embodiment, the present invention includes a method for emitting a live range statement into a program for a memory variable to be cached during run-time that has at least one simulation state variable if the memory variable is dynamically mapped, and defining the simulation state variable at a first execution path of the program. In such manner, the program may be optimized using the live range statement and the simulation state variable. Also, a debugger may use the simulation state variables in obtaining and displaying the memory variable from a cache.
