[comp.software-eng] CASE Tools for Mac II

NU087763@NDSUVM1.BITNET (Blayne Puklich) (03/30/88)

     As an aside to the current discussions about CASE and the teaching
of software engineering in the university, I'd like to ask a question of
those of you who could possibly help me.

     Currently I'm taking a class in software engineering here at NDSU,
and our group is working on a small project (in comparison to what the
rest of you work on).  We're about to enter the requirements analysis
phase of our project and, since I have a Mac II, I'd like to know if
anyone could suggest to me some good CASE packages for the Mac II.
I need the obvious, DFD's, structure charts, and data dictionary
maintenance.  There must be some packages out there that can provide
these services to our group.

     We do have Teamwork on one of the HP's on campus, but I don't
want to be bothered with running to it whenever I have a brainstorm.
Any help in my direction sure would be appreciated.  If possible,
directly email to me and, like everyone else says, I'll summarize if
I get enough information.

     Thanks in advance...

You could just use MacPaint.  Object oriented programs like MacDraw
FullPaint, and SuperPaint (which are hybrids of Bitmapped and Object)
are pretty useful.

Keywords:CASE,Reflex,MORE


You would have better luck using Reflex(from Borland)or possibly a program
like MORE to perform some of the CASE functions that you are looking for.
MORE allows you to build diagrams with the linkages, Reflex lets you proto
type, with a limited ability to create diagrams.
