SOFTWARE DISTRIBUTION DESTINATION SPECIFYING METHOD AND DEVICE FOR EXECUTING THE SAME METHOD

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To make it difficult to find the description place of distribution destination data to prevent the data from being rewritten, by representing the distribution destination data by using meaning information itself as information for actualizing the function of software. SOLUTION: When a master 1 of software is developed, a module 2 is actuated to perform operation 1 for preparing a set equivalent expressions regarding plural conversion places of the software. The equivalent expressions can easily be gathered and generated by using a dictionary which contains equivalents and synonyms when they are a natural language. The generated set of the equivalent expressions is stored in a conversion place equivalent expression data base 3. When a request to distribute the software is made, a module 4 is actuated to perform operation 2 for differently combining and copying equivalent expressions in the software. The generated copy 5 is distributed and a module 6 is actuated to perform operation 3 for storing the correspondence between the combination of the equivalent expression and the distribution destination in a distribution data base 7.
