Hello,

The semantic patch language supports to search for various identifiers
in source files. It is often hoped then that a found identifier fits to
a known application context.
But it can happen with generic source code analysis approaches that
a desirable confidence level can not easily be achieved.
Thus I would be looking for additional means to reduce uncertainty about
a software situation considerably. I imagine that a corresponding possibility
would be the use of symbol tables. Such tables provide some information for
known symbols.

How do you think about to take such data structures into account a bit more?

Regards,
Markus
