Abstract: An application development support method of the present disclosure is for generating an application by building resources including a library and a manifest file. The method includes extracting, when there are a plurality of versions of a platform being an operation target for the application, the library commonly required by all the versions of the platform from a specified resource storing area. The method includes identifying and extracting the library that is required other than commonly required by all the versions of the platform from the specified resource storing area. The method includes inquiring about a public interface relating to an un-extracted library in the specified resource storing area. The method includes generating a manifest file for a difference detected when inquiring about the public interface. The method includes connecting the generated manifest file with an existing manifest file.

Abstract: In an application development support system, a file extractor searches platforms for target files supporting the version of an application developer's project, identifying any library not common to the platform but necessary to the project version. Based on manifest files, an interface reference unit queries open-source application programming interfaces for any libraries remaining as not having been extracted by the file extractor, such library files being version-dependent interface difference files for the project build. A manifest file creation unit generates manifest files for the difference files found by the interface reference unit, and merges the difference files with existing manifest files, replacing only the version-dependent portions required by the target platform.

Abstract: A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium that stores a user interface program for developing application software using a graphical user interface (GUI) developing unit configured to cause a user to develop application software via a GUI.

The GUI developing unit is configured to operate in response to an input event generated by manipulation of an input device, and the CUI-based GUI control unit is configured to pseudo-generate the input event via the CUI.

Abstract: An application development support system for creating an application by building build resources that contain libraries and manifest files includes a project version confirmation circuit, an updating circuit, and a manifest file creation circuit. The project version confirmation circuit searches all projects existing in a resources holding region to confirm the version in situations where a platform of an operation target for the application is in a plurality of versions. The updating circuit updates version-dependent files by replacing files that differ by version, stored in a development environment, with files appropriate to the project version. The manifest file creation circuit creates manifest files for what is different from an open-source interface, and merging the files with existing manifest files.
