Abstract
A method for generalizing design attributes in a design capture environment comprising the steps of (A) defining a procedure for adding one or more auxiliary configurators to a tool or suite of tools, (B) linking the auxiliary configurators to predetermined object points in an abstracted design and (C) defining a procedure for the tool or suite of tools to reference the one or more auxiliary configurators, wherein the auxiliary configurators are neither referenced by a core nor built into the tool or suite of tools.
