The > "On the Proper Use of Design Documents" is an absolute gem... Happens all the time. Even despite the fact that there exist a tool to check that the file/function header comments are in place and minimally correspond to the file/function. > The "...document hidden on some dusty shelving in the back room near the > dead [...] computers" quip reminded me of a few similar situations at a > company I worked for. :-) How about complete absence of design/functional specs? "The code is your doc, stupid!" being the policy :) Or design specs that are merely self-contradicting ramblings and suggestions/vision for the actual design? Alex

Frounze mentioned: .... > How about complete absence of design/functional specs? > "The code is your doc, stupid!" being the policy :) Please don't laugh too loud about the latter line above, it's in fact the way I have to use since my very first attempts in modifying already existing code. This made me an expert on 1802/HC11/etc. ROM-analysis and I could make good money out of it for many years. But windoze and L'unix analysis would be a horroid time waste if I'd try to do it manually. So I started to write an automated tool. At the moment I lack on the several Tbytes required for a static code analysis including a whole OS behind it. > Or design specs that are merely self-contradicting ramblings > and suggestions/vision for the actual design? When I look at my own notes yet, it's about time to clean up the mess with all the changes and added things in my latest version. ;) __ wolfgang |
