JITTAC Mapping Source Code to Components

Mapping Source Code to Components

Next, map the source code elements, from the 'Package Explored' panel on the left hand side to the components. This can be a one to one mapping or a one to many to one mapping where many source code projects, packages, classes are mapped onto the one component. To do this simply select the project, package or class from the drop down menu and drag and drop it on the required component in the main center panel.

Notice that the tool provides you with real-time feedback which informs us of where the source code dependencies are, as expected by the architect, and where the source code dependencies are not as expected by the architect.
