Abstract:
1. A computer-supported method of producing and/or executing program code comprising: at least one screen for the representation of establishable objects, by way of which information is inputted and outputted when executing the program code, wherein objects on the screen are able to be read and write accessed by means in the program code; predetermined rules for interconnection of program components, which regulate interconnection of the program components and serial or simultaneous execution, representing in a structure diagram by a category run and a category function; symbols of the program components of the category run are basically arranged horizontally, and symbols of the program components of the category function are basically arranged vertically; the symbols are provided for program component selection wherein said program code comprises program component types of run component, start component, event component, function component, and end component; wherein the program components of the category run are serially interconnected; and the component type event component of the category run is called up by events, which occur during program run, and the event component in turn can call up run components and function components, that the program component category function includes a component type function component, wherein the function component is called up by a component type of the category run and tasks which are implemented parallel with a calling-up component are carried out by the function component; wherein associated with the selected program components is a respective symbol, which is represented in the structure diagram wherein the symbol of a program component in the structure diagram represents a virtual container whereby access to the program code of the specific program component occurs by opening the virtual container; whereby by opening the virtual container, a new screen is created, in which the program code of the corresponding program component can be processed and for each component that is in the structure diagram, a provisional program code comprising an initial line and an end line of the program component, program instructions can now be applied by the user.
