RUF Lifetime Analysis

We will download all release versions of Rust compiler and analyze its RUF definition to get the status of every RUF though the update of Rust compiler. This helps further analysis of RUF development and its usability and reliability.

This project will first download Rust compiler source codes and then produce its lifetime information. Then we'll further analyze the RUF information and visualize it. To get that, we have to execute python program analysis.py and life.py.

Subprojects using command:

• cargo run: RUF definition extractor.
• python3 analysis: Abnormal RUF lifetime analysis. It generates abnormal RUF lifetime info in feature_abnormal DB table.
• python3 life.py: Visualization. It generates lifetime file in figure.pdf.

Before them, you should run make env first to build necessary environments.
