Resumo


The current need of highly integrated and customizable software development environments requires a “meta” approach. An object-oriented approach that supports visual specification of languages and relationships between tools is presented. This Meta-CASE approach, based on an object-oriented editor framework, includes all the features encountered in earlier language oriented editor generators and in the current database and hypertext approaches to environment integration.
