Announce : Release of AdaDesigner 0.27, aiming an Ada refactoring framework.

[David Sauvage <david.sauvage@adalabs.com>]

AdaDesigner [1] is an Ada 2005 (GPL) software which aims to become an
Ada software refactoring framework.

Using ASIS [2], AdaDesigner builds a specific package call-graph view
of the project.
Using some meta-data added in the GPR project files, it creates an
abstraction layer further called sub-component layer. One sub-
component contains several packages.

AdaDesigner already proposes software engineers one interesting
component design view of their software projects. This is done by the
generation of a graphviz [3] DOT [4] file.

See AdaDesigner presentation [5] for more details.

In the future, AdaDesigner could also be able :

    - To generate UML components views directly from the code (via XMI
[6] format).


AdaDesigner is based on :

    - GNATGPR [7] (GPL)
    - ASIS [8] (GPL)
    - AUnit [9] (GPL)
