Besides compilers, these techniques are common for static analyzers to retrieve information from the code for example code auditing, quality assurance, or testing purposes. Implementing control ow analysis requires handling many special structures of the target language. In our paper we present our experiences in implementing control ow graph (CFG) construction for a special 4th generation language called Magic. During designing and implementing the CFG for this language we identied dierences compared to 3rd generation languages because the special programming technique of this language (e.g. data access, parallel task execution, events). Our work was motivated by our industrial partner who needed precise static analysis tools (e.g. for quality assurance or testing purposes) for this language. We believe that our experiences for Magic, as a representative of 4GLs might be generalized for other languages too.}, author = {D{\'e}vai, Rich{\'a}rd and Judit J{\'a}sz and Csaba Nagy and Rudolf Ferenc} }
