An object code expansion program (5) inserts new instructions and data between preexisting instructions end data of en object code file (I); offsets are modified to reflex new positions of the preexisting instructions and data. For each item of preexisting object code (instruct- tion or data), the following steps are performed: making a new code block comprising any desired new instructions and the item, and storing it as new object code; tracking the location of the item and the new code block within the new object code; and tracking items that contain inter- item offset. Then, each inter-item offset is updated using the new location of the item or new code block, as re- quired. Finally, offsets in symbol tables and relocation structures are updated with the new location of the item. This extension program is used to add instructions to ob- ject code files to monitor memory accesses of another pro- gram.
