[Corpora-List] Source code corpora

[Klaus Guenther]

Many modern projects provide API documentation that is automatically 
generated. This would seem to be nearly a reverse of the mapping you 
desire to study. Such projects include phpDocumentor that use blocks of 
comments within the code (phpdoc, javadoc, etc.).

If you are particularly interested in system requirements, I am not 
quite sure how you could map this to the code itself, unless compiler 
optimisation is taken into account. Nonetheless, that is mainly automated.

Regards,
Klaus
