Methods

For the Software Design Specification[#!SDS_DTREND!#] the software was modeled using GNU/Dia to draw UML diagrams.

Two main components of the software product, mentioned in section 3.4, were programmed in different languages: The DLL in C++, taking advantage of STL and using Microsoft Visual C++ development environment. Code for the graphical user interface was written in Java, compatible with Sun Microsystems' JRE.

The "glue" between the two mentioned major modules, the wrapper code, was planned to be written in C, but during the implementation phase benefits of C++ were seen and it was used instead.

Borland JBuilder was be used as the Swing form design program.

LATEXwas used as the documentation language. LATEX2HTML will be used to convert the LATEXdocuments into HTML.
