Abstract
An apparatus for supporting development of a graphic data driven program includes a data driven mechanism enabling instructions of the data driven program to be executed whenever all input data necessary for executing the instructions is available. The apparatus includes a terminal device for inputting and displaying a graphic data driven program, an input transforming section for transforming the inputted graphic data driven program into an intermediate file by referring to an instruction information data base, a wiring table transforming section for transforming the inputted graphic data driven program into a wiring table of instructions expressed in text which is independent of a target machine by referring to the intermediate file, a compile section for transforming the wiring table into an instruction template described with a language depending on the target machine, an instruction execution section for executing the instruction template, an instruction execution displaying section for displaying results of executing the instruction template superposed on the displayed graphic data driven program, and an instruction information tracing section for comparing actual results of executing the instruction template stored in a traced information file with correct results of executing the instruction template stored in a correct data base.
