Application ID: 11107544

Base Claim:
1. A method for generating software development artifacts from respective code sections selectively annotated as active, the method comprising: parsing source code to identify both active and inactive tagsets of tags; identifying in the source code, code sections annotated with a tag in a tagset identified as active, and code sections annotated with a tag in a tagset identified as inactive; and, skipping processing of the code sections annotated with a tag in a tagset identified as inactive, but generating artifacts external to the source code for the code sections annotated with a tag in a tagset identified as active.

Claim 2:
2. The method for generating of claim 1 further comprising writing a place-holder statement to an artifact file for each code section in the source code skipped for processing for having been annotated with a tag in a tagset identified as inactive.
