Abstract :
Adding self healing functionalities into legacy applications without user involvement is immensely useful for users and programmers of such systems. This paper presents a technique of injecting user code with self-healing primitives by statically analyzing the legacy object oriented code and instrumenting it to become a self-manageable and self-healing component. Our experiments show that it is worthwhile to instrument legacy code to provide such autonomic behavior
