WORKFLOW DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION USING FLOWCHARTS
Source code can be converted into workflows and visualized. A flowchart definition language may be utilized for generating flowcharts representing the source code. Conversely, the visualization can be converted into source code using different languages.
1 . A method for workflow analysis of source code, the method comprising:
accessing a flowchart definition language separate from the source code; and
analyzing the source code with the flowchart definition language to generate workflows that include flowchart definitions from the flowchart definition language.
2 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising generating a visual representation of the workflows.
3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the source code comprises permissions access on bucket policies.
4 . The method of claim 3 , wherein the permissions access are defined in the flowchart definition language.
5 . The method of claim 3 , wherein the generated workflows comprise a visualization of permissions.
6 . A method for source code generation comprising:
utilizing a visualized workflow comprised of flowchart definitions; and
converting the visualized workflow into machine code for execution.
7 . The method of claim 6 , wherein the converting is at compile time, and includes preprocessing the flowchart definitions into source code and compiling the source code.
8 . The method of claim 6 , wherein the converting is at run time, and comprises interpreting the flowchart definitions at the run time.
9 . The method of claim 6 , wherein the visualized workflow comprises a visualization of permissions.
