摘要: The necessity of CASE tools for system development is beyond dispute. current generation tools, however, too inflexible to provide adequate modelling support. One the proposed solutions this problem so-called CASE-shells. A shell a method independent tool, which may be instantiated with specific become tool supporting that method. As such, provides complete flexibility. This paper does not address benefits shells, as they are completely clear, but focuses on feasibility concept from theoretical well practical point view.
