When using CodeQL, how does extraction for compiled languages work?

ABy generating one language at a time

BBy resolving dependencies to give an accurate representation of the codebase

CBy monitoring the normal build process

DBy running directly on the source code

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: C

For compiled languages, CodeQL performs extraction by monitoring the normal build process. This means it watches your usual build commands (like make, javac, or dotnet build) and extracts the relevant data from the actual build steps being executed. CodeQL uses this information to construct a semantic database of the application.

This approach ensures that CodeQL captures a precise, real-world representation of the code and its behavior as it is compiled, including platform-specific configurations or conditional logic used during build.
