Yuichi Semura, Norihiro Yoshida, Eunjong Choi, Katsuro Inoue · 2017

So far, many tools have been developed for the detection of code clones in source code. The existing clone detection tools support only a limited number of programming languages and do not provide any easy extension mechanism to handle additional language. However, from our experience in industry/university collaboration, we found that many practitioners need to analyze source code written in various languages. In this paper, we propose a clone detection tool CCFinderSW that has extension mechanism to handle addition language on demand from practitioners.
