Abstract Object Creation in Dynamic Logic - To Be or Not To Be Created Wolfgang Ahrendt, Frank S. de Boer, Immo Grabe In this paper we give a representation of a weakest precondition calculus for abstract object creation in dynamic logic, the logic underlying the KeY theorem prover. This representation allows to both specify and verify properties of objects at the abstraction level of the (object-oriented) programming language. Objects which are not (yet) created never play any role, neither in the specification nor in the verification of properties. Further, we show how to symbolically execute abstract object creation.
