The tool analyzes the differences between the Input Set I and the Output Set O to determine how the source files should be modified: Added elements: A = O – I Removed elements: R = I – O Same elements: S = I ∩ O • The user creates a set of element identifiers called the Input Set by: • Using comment tags, or • Selecting elements from • a browser, or • Writing a query 4 2 class framework/Figure { /** @vsf drawing */ protected Graphics g; /** @vsf drawing */ public void draw() { … } } class figures/Circle { /** @vsf drawing */ public void draw() { … } } class figures/Square { /** @vsf drawing */ public void draw() { … } } Parse VSF Render VSF • The tool parses the • virtual source file to • produce the • Output Set. • Unlike normal • source files, VSFs • must be parseable • in order to be saved. • The tool creates a • virtual source file • by retrieving the • source code for • every element • in the Input Set. • Special syntax is • used to identify • which source file • each block of • text belongs • to.
