Frama-C gathers several analysis techniques in a single collaborative framework, based on analyzers (called "plug-ins") that can build upon the results computed by other analyzers in the framework.

Thanks to this approach, Frama-C provides sophisticated tools, including: * an analyzer based on abstract interpretation (Value plug-in); * a program proof framework based on weakest precondition calculus (WP plug-in); * a program slicer (Slicing plug-in); * a tool for verification of temporal (LTL) properties (Aoraï plug-in); * several tools for code base exploration and dependency analysis (plug-ins From, Impact, Metrics, Occurrence, Scope, etc.).

These plug-ins communicate between each other via the Frama-C API and via ACSL (ANSI/ISO C Specification Language) properties.

This package provides the library of Frama-c which is useful to build plugins for Frama-c, the command-line tools, and the graphical interface.
