Abstract
In a system for determining components of a software application from binary code thereof, one or more binary files are read without loading any component/object in the files in an execution environment that can execute the software application. A component in one of the files, designated as a primary component, is visited to identify a path specifying origin of a secondary component that is associated with the primary component, and the identified path is stored. Analysis of the path can indicate whether the secondary component is provided by the developer of the software application or by a different entity.
