Abstract
A computer-implemented method includes, in a code transformation system, identifying save-to-return code instructions, function call code instructions, comparison code instructions, and exceptional code instructions. The function call code instructions are associated with the save-to-return code instructions. The comparison code instructions are associated with the save-to-return code instructions. The exceptional code instructions are associated with the comparison code instructions. A predefined proximity range based on a predefined proximity value as well as a proximity eligibility indicator are determined. The proximity eligibility indicator denotes whether the save-to-return code instructions and the comparison code instructions are within the predefined proximity range. Responsive to the proximity eligibility indicator denoting the save-to-return code instructions and the comparison code instructions are within the predefined proximity range, one or more execution flow relationships between the function call code instructions and the exceptional code instructions are created. A corresponding computer program product and computer system are also disclosed.
