Hi Martin,

Thanks for the quick response.  Our question was slightly different, let me clarify.  Given an instance of the Expr object, we want to obtain the set of symbolic names used in that instance.  ExprPPrinter does it, for example, but in a very specific way and, frankly, we struggled to understand how it works.  We were wondering if there is a generic way to do it.  I was expecting a visitor in the Expr hierarchy, or something similar, but could not find it.

Thanks again,
Oleg

Hi Haozhi Fan,

The symbolic names are generated using the call `klee_make_symbolic` indirectly 
or directly in your software under test.
KLEE tracks the memory object that have been associated with these calls 
(https://github.com/klee/klee/blob/fc83f06b17221bf5ef20e30d9da1ccff927beb17/lib/Core/Executor.cpp*L4435)
 and assigns it an array that has the same name or similar name that is unique.
Reading from this memory will result in read expressions that reference this 
array and are later used as part of the solver calls.

Best,
Martin

Dear klee-dev members,

I was wondering if you could share some insight into how KLEE collects the set 
of symbolic names from an expression? Namely, how does KLEE generate the kquery 
for a specific path condition and from which files should I be looking for the 
details of such implementation? Thank you!

Best regards,
Haozhi Fan
