Abstract | An Automatic Menu Generator(AUMEG) is a Computer-Aided Software Engineering tool for use on a microcomputer. The tool developed here can be used to create the pull down menu system for any Pascal application as well as to generate the menu source code in Turbo Pascal version 6.0. Implementation time will be substantially lowered and the developer might feel more confident about the generated code's quality because it was automatically produced by a software tool which itself has been thoroughly debugged and tested. Menu-Driven Programming(MDP), a programming technique, is an intelligent programming environment which can be regarded as a significant step forward in the evolution of programming. A great deal of time should be saved and programming should be easier. The two main components of MDP are a menu system and a Procedure Generator. AUMEG can be considered as a CASE tool to be used to create a menu system in MDP. The Procedure Generator generates some Pascal code for each procedure. AUMEG was designed and implemented. It can be executed independently or linked with MDP to generate the menu interface part of MDP. The theory and architecture of MDP is provided. This study deals mainly with Object-Oriented Programming and a code generator in Turbo Pascal version 6.0. |
