                 small functionality enhancements for fastpath code, and 
                 improves scalability of the shadow state data 
                 structures.  Instrumentation now uses ASM version 5.
                 
  * Version 0.0: initial release.

Installation and Running
========================

See INSTALL.txt for instructions for installing and using RoadRunner.


Package Structure
=================

Javadoc for the most common API elements is provided in docs.  You
should not access any classes except those listed on those pages.
These are the most relevant classes/packages for writing new tools.

  - rr.tool.Tool:
  
          The base class of any analysis tool
          
  - rr.event.*:
  
          The Event objects that are passed to a tool's event handlers.
          You should only need to use the accessor methods for those objects.
          Note that these are reused.  You should never keep a reference to
          an Event object.  You will never create any of these objects
          yourself.
          
  - rr.meta.*:
  
          Represents the source metadata about types, classes, operations, etc.
          You should only need to use the accessors provided on these classes
          in your event handlers.  You will never create any of these objects
          yourself.
          
  - rr.simple.*:
  
          A couple simple tools. 
          
  - rr.state.ShadowThread:
  - rr.state.ShadowLock:
  - rr.state.ShadowVar:
  - rr.state.ShadowVolatile:
  
          The state attached to each Thread, object uses as a lock, and
          memory location used by a program.  Tools can attach decorations
          to ThreadStates and LockStates to store additional info on those
          structures.
          
          Tools need to create new types of VariableStates that are specific
          to them -- see the example tools.
          
  - rr.error:
  
          Error reporting classes.  See tools.* for examples of how to use
          them.
          
 The rest of the code base is primarily to instrument bytecode and provide the
 run-time support for tools.  You should not need to modify (or even look at)
 that code.
