Object Intl. ships Together C++ Version 1.2.AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan. 11, 1995--Peter Coad's company, Object Intl., announced Wednesday that it is now shipping Together/C++ Version 1.2. The company is fulfilling demand for software development tools, with an industry first: object modeling and C++ programming, continuously up-to-date throughout the development process. TC++ 1.2 adds these new features: - new automatic production of documentation, ready for Windows help Microsoft WinHelp is a proprietary format for online help files that can be displayed by the Microsoft Help browser winhelp.exe or winhlp32.exe. The file format is based on Rich Text Format (RTF). It remained a popular Help platform from Windows 3. file generation (for easy browsing of project results, by any number of reviewers) - additional object model features (including attribute types, service parameters, return value types, drag-and-drop connection changes) - additional language-specific features (configurable header files In C programming, a source code file that contains common definitions and data structures that all programmers may use as required. Also called "include files," because the #include statement is used to incorporate them with the program, header files use a .h extension. See precompiled header. and code files, private attributes and public services Public services is a term usually used to mean services provided by government to its citizens, either directly (through the public sector) or by financing private provision of services. by default) - plus a new tool bar; more extensive on-line help; and no more hardware key. Together/C++ represents a new generation of object-oriented modeling Object-Oriented Modeling, or OOM, is a modeling paradigm mainly used in computer programming. Prior to the rise of OOM, the dominant paradigm was functional programming, which emphasised the use of discreet reusable code blocks that could stand on their own, take variables, perform and programming tools. Other tools generate code frames only, just in one direction. In contrast, with Together/C++, developers may work with the object model or the code at any moment, again and again. At a touch of a button, both object model and code are updated with each other. Developers have good things to say about Together/C++. David Moskowitz (Productivity Solutions) declared, "The ability to change either code or diagram and have the changes reflected in the other is a clear advantage...and the ability to import existing source code into the tool and have Together/C++ create a visual map of the library is invaluable." Russell Rudduck (Perot Systems Perot Systems Corporation NYSE: PER is an information technology services provider based in Plano, Texas. Peter Altabef has served as president, chairman, and chief executive officer since 2004. ) described it this way: "You've really hit the nail on the head when it comes to re-engineering existing C++ code. No other tool comes close to the power and capability of Together/C++." Michael Inglot (Electrohome) said, "Together/C++ is the kind of product opening completely new possibilities for programming." Peter Coad In 1986, Peter Coad founded Object International, a software consulting firm where he served as President. During the 1990s Coad co-authored six books on the analysis, design, and programming of object-oriented software. , company president and co-author co·au·thor or co-au·thor n. A collaborating or joint author. tr.v. co·au·thored, co·au·thor·ing, co·au·thors To be a collaborating or joint author of: "He and a colleague . . . of the new book "Object Models: Strategies, Patterns, and Applications," put it this way: "For nearly seven years, I've advocated one multi-faceted model, applied from concept to code. To deliver this message, I wrote three books, invented a game, and conducted workshops worldwide. Today, this message is embodied in software. You can work with an object model; you can work in code; and the two stay consistent with each other -- automatically." Features Together/C++ includes: - An object modeling and C++ programming environment. Developers may edit in an object modeling window or in a C++ programming window, side-by-side. Together/C++ keeps the two continuously in sync with each other. - Automatic, semi-automatic, and manual layout of object models, so existing class libraries can be read in and a meaningful object model can be immediately displayed. - Object modeling view management, including view control over model elements, files, and directories, essential for presenting meaningful subsets of an overall object model. - A full C++ parser A routine that analyzes a continuous flow of text-based input and breaks it into its constituent parts. See parse. (language) parser - An algorithm or program to determine the syntactic structure of a sentence or string of symbols in some language. . Syntax problems are caught right at the moment of infraction Violation or infringement; breach of a statute, contract, or obligation. The term infraction is frequently used in reference to the violation of a particular statute for which the penalty is minor, such as a parking infraction. INFRACTION. . - Immediate integration with any other tools that work with, consist of, or generate C++ code, including editors, class libraries, or GUI builders Visual programming software that lets a user build a graphical user interface by dragging and dropping elements from a toolbar onto the screen. It may be a stand-alone program or part of an application development system or client/server development system. . - Documentation generation, with pre-defined templates. - Customizable documentation generation, with a full scripting language A high-level programming, or command, language that is interpreted (translated on the fly) rather than compiled ahead of time. A scripting, or script, language may be a general-purpose programming language or it may be limited to specific functions used to augment the running of an for extracting object modeling and C++ content and automatically placing it within whatever form is desired (TC++ Team only). - Multi-user version control system (TC++ Team only). - The Together/C++ Video Workshop and a 14-page Quick Start Guide.
