Software Development Foundation
The Software Development Foundation (SDS) is an open architecture
designed for developing tools for software development. Based on XML,
the SDS makes it easy for most languages and other systems to incorporate its
tools. The core of SDS is the Code Structure Format (CSF) which
collects most interesting information about source code which can be
easily utilised by tools. Included is also a documentation application
SDOC which allows CSF-files to be streamlined for documentation. Some
simple flowcharts have been made for CSF
and SDOC which basically shows how SDS can
be used. SDS is currently in development, but we put out a few
development releases now and then.

A build-problem with the first uploaded YayChristmas-version was
discovered. If you download now it should be fixed, if not, please
check the sds-devel mailing-list archive for details, or
download again. Another issue is a few errors which were discovered
with lisp2csf which is in the python client. These errors
occur if you do not have an appropriate $HOME/.sds/prefs.xml
file. Please have a look at tests/glob-prefs.xml as an
example of such a prefs-file. You may also want to download a better
version of src/python/sds/client.py
to replace the one in the archive. (overwrite the old one, and do a
'make install' in the src/python directory and lisp2csf, csf2sdoc and
sdoc2doc will all be improved. The 0.5.17 version will include this
fix.
