CUPERTINO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 4, 1997--TakeFive Software Inc., a leading vendor of object-oriented development tools, has announced the availability of a new integration module from VERILOG for SNiFF+, providing CASE and testing tools.

VERILOG's ObjectPartner is a CASE tool based on OMT (Object Modeling Technique) An object-oriented analysis and design method developed by James Rumbaugh. See Rational Rose.

 analysis and design methods. ObjectPartner generates C++ code, which is seamlessly loaded into the SNiFF+ development environment.

The integration of SNiFF+ and ObjectPartner offers full round-trip engineering Round-trip engineering is a functionality of software development tools that provides generation of models from source code and generation of source code from models; this way, existing source code can be converted into a model, be subjected to software engineering methods and then , accelerates complex software projects, frees developers from difficult project management tasks and leads to higher quality software development with shortened time-to-market. The integration enhances programmers' productivity by providing streamlined tools for any task in the software lifecycle within one single environment. Developers can freely mix and match hardware platforms Each hardware platform, or CPU family, has a unique machine language. All software presented to the computer for execution must be in the binary coded machine language of that CPU. Following is a list of the major hardware platforms in existence today. See platform. , compilers, debuggers, editors, third party tools and programming languages.

Its unique Fuzzy-Parser technology makes SNiFF+ extremely powerful and fast. SNiFF+ and all integrated tools feature an intuitive and easy-to-learn graphical user interface graphical user interface (GUI)

Computer display format that allows the user to select commands, call up files, start programs, and do other routine tasks by using a mouse to point to pictorial symbols (icons) or lists of menu choices on the screen as opposed to having to
. SNiFF+ simplifies development and management of projects with languages like C, C++, Java, FORTRAN and IDL (1) (Interface Definition Language) A language used to describe the interface to a routine or function. For example, objects in the CORBA distributed object environment are defined by an IDL, which describes the services performed by the object and how the data . The SNiFF+ integrated environment provides efficient cross-platform software development.

SNiFF+ supports large development environments with powerful browsing tools that make it easy to sort through hundreds of source files. SNiFF+ addresses all phases of the development lifecycle tools including project management and version control and acts as a hub for all important building and compiling tools, debuggers and documentation builder.

For the testing phase, ObjectPartner automatically takes the project structure issued by SNiFF+ to compute online test coverage measurement and to define test strategies oriented on reliability improvement. Additional ObjectPartner tools extract metrics information for any object, providing guides for riskless software development with optimum reusability.
