Mapping software modules to source code

A system comprising:

• a programmed hardware class mapper configured to create a class map from object-oriented programming source code for a subject program, said class map mapping program modules of said subject program to classes referenced by said source code;
• and
• a programmed hardware log-file mapper configured to create a log map by transitively combining information from said class map and from logging-mechanism configuration files for said subject program, said configuration files mapping said classes to said log files, said log map mapping said program modules to said log files.

A system comprising computer-readable storage media encoded with code defining a compiler configured to, when executed by a processor:

• create a class map based on source code of a subject program including said program modules, said class map mapping said program modules to classes referenced by said source code;
• and
• create a log map by combining information from said class map and from logging mechanism configuration files associated with said subject program, said configuration files mapping said classes to log files used while said program modules are executing, said log map mapping said program modules to said log files.
