Overview of reverse engineering IDL legacy code and generating IDL code (IDL code)
Modeler allows you to reverse engineer legacy IDL code and generate IDL code:
• IDL Code Reverser (Reverser) reverse engineers legacy IDL3+ code from IDL files into a model.

• Automatic Code Synchronizer (ACS) generates IDL3 or IDL3+ files for IDL Profile items, Component Domain Descriptor (CDD) files for Domains, and Component Deployment Plan (CDP) files for Deployment Plans. The generated CDD and CDP files are suitable as input to the Dance tool.

• The IDL Profile allows you to create the IDL items that model the IDL3+ and DDS code in a model.

The help for IDL generation and reverse engineering assumes that you have a good working knowledge of IDL code and DDS files, that is, Component Deployment Plan (CDP) files and Component Domain Descriptor (CDD) files.
Important: The IDL Code Reverser is not designed to round-trip code that is generated through ACS.
