EasyCase (v1.5) by Evergreen Case Tools REGISTRATION ($85.00)
An easy-to-use Computer Aided Software Engineering (CASE)
tool for drawing :
o Data Flow Diagrams,
o Transformation Schema,
o State Transition Diagrams,
o Structure Charts and Entity-Relationship Diagrams in
accordance with the Yourdon-DeMarco, Gane & Sarson,
Ward-Mellor, Hatley-Pirbhai, Yourdon-Constantine and Chen
methods for Structured Systems Analysis and Design
EasyCASE is a limited function CASE (Computer Aided Software
Engineering) tool intended to simplify the generation (with a certain
amount of automation) of data flow diagrams (DFDs), transformation
graphs, state transition diagrams, structure charts and entity-
relationship diagrams (ERDs).
EasyCASE provides the capability to add the appropriate chart type
objects to the chart and then manipulate them. EasyCASE maintains
certain information about each object and its relationships with other
objects on the chart. Objects can be added, moved, deleted, labelled,
identified and associated with other objects on the chart. If an
object is modified in any way, any other similarly identified or
associated objects are modified also.
The Data Dictionary and Desktop Publishing support provided is,
currently, minimal. The information entered about each object on each
chart produced is exported, at the chart level, in dBASE III file
format so that reports and analysis can be performed using dBASE III+,
Lotus 1-2-3, Microsoft Excel, PC File:dB etc. Also, a chart can be
exported in Microsoft Windows Paint (v1.0x and v2.0) and PC Paintbrush
(v3.0) file formats so that it can be incorporated into documents when
using a desktop publishing or word processing program which can import
Paint images, such as Aldus Pagemaker, Ventura Publisher, PFS:First
Publisher, Lotus Manuscript etc.
This program is not intended to directly compete with full function
CASE tools such as Excelerator/RTS from Index Technology Corporation.
