Main features

Where applicable all multi-CASE sub-tools include automatic syntax enforcement by presenting the user with options that ensure that the syntax of the particular technique is correct. In addition to this a number of the sub-tools also include a model checking facility which identifies any weaknesses within the model.
The multi-CASE tool has the ability to generate various types of program code from input models. At the moment code is generated from the entity-relationship diagramming tool, the UML tool and the XML Schema tool.  The type of code generated is dependent upon the modelling technique being used and the selected target architecture.  The multi-CASE tool is under constant development, thus the number of target platforms increases all the time.
Consistency checking is provided within appropriate sub-tools. Within the dataflow diagram tool for example, consistency between levels is automatically enforced. i.e. Any changes made on one level are automatically reflected across the whole model. The UML tool also has a large amount of automatic cross referencing capabilities. Such consistency semantics make it impossible for models to become inconsistent.

If you are are using Windows XP with service pack 2 or IE7 you must ensure you have at least version 1.1.2 of QSEE SuperLite installed. QSEE SuperLite makes use of Internet Explorer to provide navigation/help pages and SP2 made minor changes to how navigation works. When QSEE SuperLite is first started up there is sometimes a delay before the buttons on the startup page become active. This is simply due to the fact that Internet Explorer is also being started (and it is a very large application). Once IE is started QSEE SuperLite will react immediately.
