ABSTRACT
Wrangler is a refactoring tool for Erlang, implemented in Erlang. This paper reports the latest developments in Wrangler, which include improved user experience, the introduction of a number of data- and process-related refactorings, and also the implementation of an Eclipse plug-in which, together with Erlide, provides refactoring support for Erlang in Eclipse.

A domain-specific language for scripting refactorings in erlang
FASE'12: Proceedings of the 15th international conference on Fundamental Approaches to Software EngineeringRefactoring is the process of changing the design of a program without changing its behaviour. Many refactoring tools have been developed for various programming languages; however, their support for composite refactorings --- refactorings that are ...
Automated API migration in a user-extensible refactoring tool for Erlang programs
ASE '12: Proceedings of the 27th IEEE/ACM International Conference on Automated Software EngineeringWrangler is a refactoring and code inspection tool for Erlang programs. Apart from providing a set of built-in refactorings and code inspection functionalities, Wrangler allows users to define refactorings, code inspections, and general program ...
Refactoring-aware versioning in Eclipse
To fully support refactorings in a team development environment we have implemented a refactoring-aware repository provider as an extension plug-in to the Java Development Tools in Eclipse. The versioning system treats refactorings as first-class ...
