Abstract:
A system determines what aspects of input sources contribute to code generation and provides associations between the input sources and components of features of the generated code. These associations may be visualized by displaying visual cues of the associations. The input sources may be of different types, including but not limited to a model, a code generator and values for atomic configuration setting for code generation. The visual cue that is displayed may take the form of a visible connection between the input sources and the relative portion or portions of the generated programming code. Suggestions may be generated in response to edits to the generated programming code as to how the sources may be modified to provide desired changes in the generated programming code. Analysis may be performed to identify artifacts in the generated programming code and associations to the sources may be identified to specify what source contributed to portions of the generated programming code.
