Newsgroups: comp.lang.ada Date: 1997-08-19T00:00:00+00:00 List-Id: George, If you become interested in checking out tools that help automate compliance with the SPC AQ&S, please take a look at our products: Ada-ASSURED and Ada-Utilities. Ada-ASSURED is a language-sensitive editor that formats code as it is being typed or read. Warning messages, shown either as comments in the code or displayed in a separate window, alert you to style problems. There are "indicator" messages that warn you when you are approaching an undesirable parameter you have defined, e.g. the current structure in which you are working has 4 nested control structures and your coding standard allows nesting to only 5 levels (per AQ&S). "Violation" messages to alert you to ... well ... violations of your coding standard. Ada-Utilities provides many of the same facilities as Ada-ASSURED. It's for sites that don't need an LSE, yet still want to ensure their code complies with their coding standards. It's a set of language-sensitive batch tools designed for analyzing multiple files at once and it produces web browse-able HTML reports with metrics of coding style standards compliance along with hypertext cross-referencing to the source code and corresponding sections of the AQ&S (or your in-house documentation, if desired). Both Ada-ASSURED and Ada-Utilities can be customized to assist compliance with the coding standards your group comes up with. Many of the rules they monitor may be turned on/off or can be parameterized. Both tools can automatically correct some style violations and additional code transformations can be written with the scripting language that's included. I've posted additional information in comp.lang.ada before that I think you can still access through Deja News at: http://xp6.dejanews.com/getdoc.xp?recnum=13688149&server=db97p2&CONTEXT=8719 98805.1996556705&hitnum=20 Contact me directly if you'd like a complete information package or to arrange a demo. ----------------------------- Jeff Burns, Director of Marketing GrammaTech, Inc.
