JPH05165617A - System for unifying software design book with program source - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To unify quality assurance, to easily perform the standardization and mechanization of the generating work of a program, and to improve productivity when a program source is generated by a computer based on a software design book. CONSTITUTION:This system is provided with the document 2 of the design book and memory for a program source file 3. A CRT 5 and an operating table 6 are connected to a man-machine interface 4, and are used for the generation of the program source and program logic. A character recognition device 7 is used for the read of the software package. A processor 1 generates a null program source file 3 first. Thence, the processor edits the content of the document file 2, and writes it on part of the header of the file 3. Furthermore, the processor generates the program logic and writes it on the text part of the file 3. Unification can be accomplished by compiling and linking the file 3.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a method for creating a program source on a computer based on a software design document, and more particularly to a method for integrating a design document and a program source.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, when creating software for a computer system, a design document for the software is first written in a document, and a computer language program source is created based on the design document. Therefore, the production results of the design document and the program source have been managed as separate works although they correspond to each other.

[0003]

However, the above conventional methods have the following problems. That is, (1) the design source is modified but the program source is not so modified, or vice versa, and there is a problem from the viewpoint of quality assurance.

(2) Standardization and mechanization of program creation work are difficult.

(3) The number of man-hours required by manpower is large and the productivity is not improved.

The present invention was devised in view of the above problems, and standardized quality assurance, easy standardization and mechanization of program creation work, and software design documents and program sources for improving productivity. The purpose is to provide an integrated system.

[0007]

Means for solving the above-mentioned problems in the present invention is an integrated method of a design document and a program source when a computer creates the program source based on the software design document, A process for creating a program source file consisting of an empty header part and a text part, having a memory for storing a document file of a software design document and a memory for storing a program source file, and editing the contents of the document file,
It is based on an integrated method of a software design document and a program source, which includes a step of writing in the header portion and a step of creating a logic of a program and writing the logic in the text portion.

[0008]

The present invention is a system for integrally creating and managing a software design document and a program source. Therefore, according to the present invention, a memory for storing a document file of a software design document and a memory for storing a program source file are provided, and an empty program source file including a header portion and a text portion is created and the header portion is created. Edit the content of the document file and write it, write the program logic and write it in the text part,
Manage these integrated files.

[0009]

Embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing an embodiment of the present invention. In the figure, 1 is a processor, 2 is a software design document file, 3 is a program source file,
4 is a man-machine interface, 5 is a CRT display, 6 is an operation table with a keyboard, and 7 is an optical character recognition device. The CRT display 5 and the operation table 6 are connected to the man-machine interface 4 and used for creating a program source and logic. The optical character recognition device 7 is used for reading a design document.

FIG. 2 is a process chart of an embodiment of the present invention. In the figure, the processor 1 processes the following steps.

(1) An empty program source file 3 consisting of a header part and a text part is created and stored in a memory.

(2) Read the software design document from the document file 2, edit the contents, and write it in the header section.

(3) A program (logic) is created and written in the text portion.

(4) Compile and link the completed program source file 3.

The following effects are apparent in this embodiment. That is, (1) the design document and the program source are always integrated,
Product quality is guaranteed.

(2) The procedure of program creation work is standardized and mechanization becomes possible.

(3) The number of programming steps is reduced, and the productivity is improved.

[0018]

As described above, according to the present invention, the quality assurance is unified, the standardization and mechanization of the program creation work are easy, and the method of integrating the software design document and the program source for improving the productivity is integrated. Can be provided.
