Abstract
Received source code is transformed according to a predefined rule set to create an encoded text string representation of each function of the received source code. Each encoded text string representation of each function of the received source code includes a text string that identifies each parameter type of the respective function of the received source code, and is compared in real time with encoded text string representations of stored source code fragments in a repository. Each stored source code fragment is transformed according to the same predefined rule set into the respective encoded text string representations that each include a text string that identifies each parameter type of a respective function of the respective stored source code fragment. An indication of each portion of the received source code determined to already exist as a stored source code fragment in the repository is outputted in response to the real-time comparison.
