ABSTRACT:
A system and a method are described for optimizing the sequencing and time requirements for compiling large sets of source code residing in multiple hierarchical file directories using an abstracted logical description of the hierarchical file relations existing between directories. The system consists of a logic processor working in concert with input and output file registers, a match register, and an abstracted tree register for the purpose of creating a identifying, comparing, and sequencing file names in a final description of the global directory. The method iteratively identifies the primary input files and the intermediate input files for a given output file for each of a series of directories, inverts the casual relationship between the output file and its intermediary input files, and accumulates and stores these relationships in a sequential manner for subsequent use.
