METHOD FOR AUTOMATICALLY GENERATING CORRECTED PROGRAM INHERITED PROGRAM, AUTOMATIC PROGRAM GENERATION APPARATUS, AND STORAGE MEDIUM STORING PROGRAM FOR AUTOMATICALLY GENERATING CORRECTED PROGRAM INHERITED PROGRAM

摘要

An automatic program generation unit automatically generates a program according to designing information. When a code is added by a change in designing information, a corrected portion inheriting unit retrieves an added portion from a new program automatically generated according to the latest designing information. When a code is deleted by a change in designing information, the deleted portion is retrieved from a corrected program obtained by correcting the previous automatically-generated program. Then, the added portion obtained by the retrieval is added to the corrected program, and the deleted portion is deleted from the corrected program.
