eMoose is a memory aid for Java developers which offers (among other features) the ability to annotate classes and members and "push" these annotations into the context of invoking code. The lightweight version of eMoose operates on all of the user's "//TODO" comments as well as on a corpus of directives ("do!" and "don't do!")that we manually tagged in the method javadocs of several popular APIs. When viewing code that includes a call to a method whose target has an associated todo or a directive, the call is highlighted. When hovering over the call, you get not only the JavaDoc, but also a listing of the associated directives. eMoose should make it more likely to notice, for example, that you are calling an incomplete method or a method that places a special restriction (e.g., "don't invoke from the UI thread"). Our lab studies demonstrate the efficacy of this approach even when developers were carefully scrutinizing the documentation.
