Abstract

The described method and system synchronizes source code with byproducts or artifacts of an application creation process. In one embodiment, a generation tool may be used to produce source code header files based on a design specification, where the source code header files are compiled with a current version of source code. Compilation errors may direct a developer to modify either the specification or the source code to eliminate the errors. The described method and system may be integrated into a development platform that is adapted to direct the user to perform particular revisions or updates to bring the source code in line with the artifacts.
