This paper highlights the role of non-functional information
when reusing from a component library. We describe a method for selecting
appropriate implementations of Ada packages taking non-functional constraints
into account; these constraints model the context of reuse. Constraints
take the form of queries using an interface description language
called NoFun, which is also used to state non-functional information in Ada
packages; query results are trees of implementations, following the import
relationships between components. We define two different situations when
reusing components, depending whether we take the library being searched
as closed or extendible. The resulting tree of implementations can be manipulated
by the user to solve ambiguities, to state default behaviours, and
by the like. As part of the proposal, we face the problem of computing from
code the non-functional information that determines the selection process. |
