I generally tend to distrust code that is 'generated' unless it's for a very clear, simple, and well defined task (like a state machine, parser or GUI front end). Using UML as a "standard way" of conveying your designs sounds sensible although I feel that it's more restrictive than pen and paper. > I do believe the second point is an important reason why domain specific > modelling tools are very important that can generate platform specific > code.Something like UML to C++ might be available.I am not certain though. I worry about maintainability and bitrot in the long run when code is generated in this fashion. -- ~noufal http://nibrahim.net.in _______________________________________________ BangPypers mailing list [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/bangpypers
