Senseo: Enriching Eclipse's static source views with dynamic metrics

Maintaining object-oriented systems that use inheritance and polymorphism is difficult, since runtime information, such as which methods are actually invoked at a call site, is not visible in the static source code. We have implemented Senseo, an Eclipse plugin enhancing Eclipse’s static source views with various dynamic metrics, such as runtime types, the number of objects created, or the amount of memory allocated in particular methods.
