Reverse Engineering is the extraction of information
from an existing program, source code or executables.
The creation of a new sortware given an existing
program as an input.

Yes, XML is central to the introspector.

The GCC compiler is modified to output XML.
The XML is streamed to a perl program that can process
it, It puts the xml records in a database.

Currently I am working on front ends to this database
and scripts to run the compiler.

2. producing file format converter to other XML

3. testing

2. Writing perl programs  - LOTS of that.
3. Writing php programs   - i have no skill here
4. Writing java programs  - I have started on java
clasess, need testing.
5. Writing SQL queries  - we need more of them.

The database is ready for usage
The perl database access is usable.
The program to run the compiler is usable.
