Object-oriented software development support apparatus and development support method

摘要

The object-oriented software development support apparatus according to the present invention includes: a pattern architecture storage unit for storing pattern information about a plurality of applicable patterns and inter-pattern relevant information for association among patterns having an antecedent/consequent relationship when the software is developed; and a pattern application unit for applying to a model to be developed a pattern whose application has been approved by the user among the patterns stored in the pattern architecture storage unit and detailing the model, and supporting the development of software corresponding to the model. The object-oriented software development support apparatus according to the present invention applies a pattern according to an entered pattern architecture, thereby enabling the pattern to be appropriately and efficiently reused, and efficiently supporting the development of software. In addition, various object-oriented patterns can be easily defined, and a model and a program desired by the developer can be automatically generated.
