Abstract
A method and apparatus for marking a region of source code within a program unit and extracting an executable version of this marked region of code. The executable version has a initialized program state equivalent to that of the original source code when the original source code entered the region. The method and apparatus remove as much source code as possible from the original source code while retaining enough code to enable the extracted region execute (replay) in a manner identical to the execution of the program region in the context of the original system.
