Abstract
Developers will perform a lot of search behaviors when facing daily work tasks, searching for reusable code fragments, solutions to specific problems, algorithm designs, software documentation, and software tools from public repositories (including open source communities and forum blogs) or private repositories (internal software repositories, source code platforms, communities, etc.) to make full use of existing software development resources and experiences. This paper first takes a deep programmatic understanding view of the software development process. In this paper, we first define the software engineering code search task from the perspective of deep program understanding. Secondly, this paper summarizes two research paradigms of deep software engineering code search and composes the related research results. At the same time, this paper summarizes and organizes the common evaluation methods for software engineering code search tasks. Finally, the results of this paper are combined with an outlook on future research.
