EvaluateTool fails to consider imported clones about bigcloneeval

[qw3ry]

Can check a few values in the report, please:

• Line 4 of the report should say something like #Clones: 8, as you imported 8 clones.
• Around line 35, the recall for all functionalities is listed per clone type. It has the format <#detected> / <#total> = <recall>. Is it correct that both "#detected" and "recall" are 0 for all types?

Thank you for getting back to me.

Line 4 of the report does indeed say that 8 clones were successfully.

My problem comes from the fact that the recall in the report is equal to 0, despite some of the clones in sample/BinarySearch.java having been detected by my tool.

For example, the pair below was classified as a clone by my tool:

sample,BinarySearch.java,6,16,sample,BinarySearch.java,19,29

In code this pair corresponds to these two BinarySearch functions which are indeed clones:

public static int binarySearch1(int arr[], int key, int imin, int imax) {
		//Implementation: Recursive, primitive type
		if(imax < imin)
			return -1;
		int imid = (imin+imax)/2;
		if(arr[imid] > key)
			return binarySearch1(arr,key,imin,imid-1);
		else if (arr[imid] < key)
			return binarySearch1(arr,key,imid+1,imax);
		else
			return imid;

public static <T extends Comparable<T>> int binarySearch3(T[] arr, T key, int imin, int imax) {
		//Implementation: Recursive, comparable type
		if(imax < imin)
			return -1;
		int imid = (imin+imax)/2;
		if(arr[imid].compareTo(key) > 0)
			return binarySearch3(arr,key,imin,imid-1);
		else if (arr[imid].compareTo(key) < 0)
			return binarySearch3(arr,key,imid+1,imax);
		else
			return imid;
