Abstract (en)

[origin: FR2773242A1] The invention concerns a method for identifying and monitoring the evolution of an set of software components (4), each component (#1 to N) being marked by a name and a version identifier, and each set of software components (4) being linked to a first subset (5) comprising an identifier (50, 51) of the software set and its version. The modifications brought to the software components (#1 to N) are marked by a correction package index which is incremented when a new correction package is applied. A second subset (6) is provided comprising an identifier (60) of the software set (4) and of the correction package, and of an evolution version number (61) comprising at least the correction package index. Said second subset (6) is associated (l2) with a file (7') describing the name of the software components (#3, #5) of the correction package and their versions.
