ABSTRACT

Computer Science Parts (CS Parts)

CS Parts is a collection of reusable Ada software components that was put together from (1) items in the ASR and (2) new items written to meet specific needs not found in the ASR. It was developed originally to support courses in Software Engineering with Ada, and it has been used on several DoD projects as well.

CS Parts include several different kinds of components:

All Ada package specifications are compliant with the proposed MIL-HDBK-1804 (also available in the ASR). The Portable Text Formatter (PTF) from the ASR and the PAL is required to assemble the documents. CS Parts is the core reusable components library used to support many ASR- and PAL-specific tools. The files associated with CS Parts include:

Included is an interactive reader for users of CS Parts. This reader allows a user to scan the specifications of the components online, doing string searches, printing out selected information, reviewing the error messages, etc. This reader is the same basic architecture as the readers for the Ada 83 and Ada 9X Reference Manuals, so users will find the usage of all three readers to be similar.

The file csp_pc.zip contains a ready-to-run executable of the CS Parts Reader. The file csp_rdr.zip contains the source code. Both *.ZIP files contain the file qstart.txt, which is a tutorial on the use of the reader.
