Hi,
I am a hardware guy with lots of experience in programming in Verilog
(and some in Perl). Now I need to create a software tool for
automatically creating code for one of our parts(and unfortunately we
don't have a software team.) I could go ahead and start hacking this
thing right away, but it would be great if I could get some advice to
point me in the right direction.
The program would be a four step process, where the each part affects
the menus and behavior of the following parts. Each step of the
process would have a pop up form that needs to be filled out. The
popup form would be dynamically created to reflect the information
filled in on the previous step. At the end, there is some computation
done based on the choices entered in the 4 step process, and a text
file is created that would be saved on the user's hard-disk as a text
file.
Other requirements:
-Ability to save the process at any time to a setup file on the user's
hard-drive to continue later.
-The application should work as a standalone or as web based program.
-Should be platform independent.
Questions:
-Programming language to use? Java, html, perl, other?
-Any libraries or packages available that would simplify the work?
-Any examples, references, books?
-Estimate of scope of project? I figure a week, but I could be way off.
Thanks,
