A comprehensive report generator is integrated into MacA&D and WinA&D. HTML is often used to format custom reports from requirements, specifications and design information. These reports can be viewed in a standard HTML browser or word processor. Here are some popular books on HTML and related subjects. XML is a widely used industry standard for formatting and sharing information. Every design diagram, dictionary or requirements document created in MacA&D or WinA&D can be exported or imported as XML. In fact, XML is the standard storage format for many Excel Software products. COM The programming interface in WinA&D is based on Microsoft's Component Object Model (COM). Programs written in almost any language can access WinA&D documents or extend its feature set. New user created features can be added as standard menu commands or as a button on standard WinA&D dialogs. Patterns Reuseable patterns can be applied to software development during analysis and design. Management Successful management of large software projects requires a disciplined process. Testing Testing is an important and often expensive part of the development process. A solid list of requirements is the foundation of both the development and testing effort. The requirements specification and traceability features in MacA&D and WinA&D provide a great place to start. Ada WinA&D and WinTranslator implement a complete environment for UML modeling, generating and reengineering Ada code on mission critical projects. Here are some popular books on Ada programming.
