SmartTools

Article:Domain-Driven Development: the SmartTools Software Factory
The SmartTools approach combines
  • Domain-Specific Language (DSL),
  • Aspect-Oriented Programming (AOP) and
  • Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) approach.
How to develop applications with the least possible programming effort
The largest part of an application is produced or carried out come from a set of DSL for each concern.


The SmartTools approach is completely integrate into Eclipse

[Fleche]Overview

With the Internet and the proliferation of new component and distributive technologies, the design and implementation of complex applications must take into account standards, code distribution, deployment of components and reuse of business know-hows. To cope with these changes, applications need to be more open, adaptable and capable of evolving.

To accommodate to these new challenges, the paper presents a new development approach based on transformations of different business models, each of them related to one possible concern of the application.

This approach is MDA compliant. It relies on Generative and Component Programming and on approaches by separation of concerns (ASoC) which are adapted for business-model descriptions. It contributes to the research works on Domain Driven Development and have a fully operational implementation (SmartTools). It may be compared to a software factory dedicated to applications which rely on a data model.

The main expected results are i) to build software of better quality thanks to business models and technology separation, ii) to generate simpler code, iii) to enable rapid developments and insertions of new facets and iv) to facilitate the portability of applications towards new technologies or platforms.

In order to describe our approach, we discuss the SmartTools features and provide an example of application which is implemented with SmartTools.

[Fleche]Keywords and the basic concepts of SmartTools Software Factory

  • SmartTools architecture is based on Service-oriented architecture (SOA) approach, a set of adaptables components
  • On the conceptual level, SmartTools is based on the Domain-specific Language (DSL) approach to model the various concerns.
  • The techniques of Generative Programming (GP) are used for the implementation level

SmartTools est un générateur d'environnements de développement fortement fondé sur les technologies objets et XML. Grâce à une technique de génération automatique à partir de spécifications, SmartTools permet de développer très rapidement des environnements spécialisés pour des langages de programmation ou des langages métiers. En particulier, certaines de ces spécifications sont directement issues des technologies W3C, ce qui ouvre, des perspectives innombrables et variées de langages métiers. D'autre part, SmartTools s'appuie sur les technologies objets: utilisation des ``visitor patterns'', programmation par aspects, distribution des objets et composants, et implantation en Java. Les avantages de ces technologies permettent de proposer, à moindre coût, une plate-forme de développement ouverte, interactive, uniforme, et évolutive.

Since a few years, the component approach for the design of complex software has appeared to help to solve problems of code repartition, deployment and reusability. This approach turns out to match the best result which ensures application evolution, interoperability and maintenance. This article introduces the component model used to implement an Integrated Development Environment. The salient feature of this model is that it is extensible and transposable into well-known models such as Web-Services, CORBA Component Model or EJB. The validity of this model has been assessed as it was used to implement our tool. This pragmatic approach was helpful for us to design an simple and realistic component model.

SmartTools is a development environment generator that provides a structure editor and semantic tools as main features. The well-known visitor pattern technique is commonly used for designing semantic analysis, it has been automated and extended. SmartTools is easy to use thanks to its graphical user interface designed with the Java Swing APIs. It is built with an open architecture convinient for a partial or total integration of SmartTools in other environments. It makes the addition of new software components in SmartTools easy. As a result of the modular architecture, we built a distributed instance of SmartTools which required minimal effort. Being open to the XML technologies offers all the features of SmartTools to any language defined with those technologies. But most of all, with its open architecture, SmartTools takes advantage of all the developments made around those technologies, like DOM, through the XML APIs. The fast development of SmartTools (which is a young project, one year old) validates our choices of being open and generic.The main goal of this tool is to provide help and support for designing software development environments for programming languages as well as application languages defined with XML technologies.

SmartTools is a semantic framework generator, based on XML and object technologies. Thanks to a process of automatic generation from specifications, SmartTools makes it possible to quickly develop environments dedicated to domain-specific and programming languages. Some of these specifications (XML, DTD, Schemas, XSLT) are issued from the W3C which is an important source of varied emerging domain-specific languages. SmartTools uses object technologies such as visitor patterns and aspect-oriented programming. It provides code generation adapted to the usage of those technologies to support the development of semantic analyses. In this way, we obtain at minimal cost the design and implementation of a modular development platform which is open, interactive, uniform, and most important prone to evolution.

Depuis quelques années, l'approche par composants dans la conception de logiciels complexes est apparue pour résoudre les problèmes de répartition, de déploiement et de réutilisation de code. Cette approche s'avère la mieux adaptée pour assurer la pérennité, l'évolution, l'interopérabilité et la maintenance d'applications. Cet article présente le modèle de composants adopté pour la réalisation d'un atelier de développement. L'originalité de ce modèle est d'être extensible et exportable vers d'autres modèles plus connus tels que les Web Services, CCM (CORBA Component Model) ou EJB (Entreprise Java Bean) tout en respectant nos besoins. La validité de ce modèle est aussi éprouvée puisqu'il a été utilisé pour l'implantation de notre outil. Cette approche pragmatique nous a permis de concevoir un modèle de composants simple et réaliste.

With the emergence of the Internet and proliferation of new technologies, the design and programming of complex applications need to take into account standards and notions of code distribution, deployment and reuse. There is a need to change the programming methodologies to take into account these different facets. This thesis lays the foundations for a new way of programming based on generative programming that automatically integrates specific technologies and user specifications (abstract models). This idea was successfully used, at different levels - data representation, interactive environments, semantic Atreatments and the architecture, in the design and realisation of SmartTools, a software framework for domain-specific languages. In this way, the generated source code makes use of XML technologies for the data representation, object and bean technologies for the views and GUI, aspect-oriented programming and visitor design pattern for semantic treatments and components to obtain an open architecture and a distributed and deployable application. This idea is very close to the MDA (Model-Driven Architecture) proposal of the OMG consortium that advocates a platform-independent model that can be transformed into one or more platform-specific models. The main results of this thesis is better software quality due to business logic and technology separation, more straightforward code, a rapid addition of new facets and a means that facilitates the portability of applications towards new technologies or platforms.
