GUI-driven symbol management and code generator

A computer system comprising:

• one or more computer processors;
• one or more non-transitory computer readable storage media;
• and
• program instructions stored on the one or more non-transitory computer readable storage media for execution by at least one of the one or more computer processors, the program instructions comprising:
• program instructions to receive one or more symbols indicating tasks to be implemented via source code;
• program instructions to generate a visual display comprising a dialog box supporting modification of source code that implements the executable instructions indicated by the one or more symbols;
• program instructions to, responsive to receiving a user interaction with the dialog box resulting in modified source code, generate a visual display comprising a dialog box output, wherein the dialog box output is one of the modified source code or a representation of the modified source code that is shorter than the modified source code;
• program instructions to provide an opportunity to toggle the generated visual display between displaying the modified source code and the representation of the modified source code that is shorter than the modified source code, wherein the representation of the modified source code that is shorter than the modified source code includes the one or more symbols;
• program instructions to, responsive to receiving a modification of the one or more symbols included in the displayed representation of the modified source code that is shorter than the modified source code, update all instances of source code corresponding to the one or more symbols;
• program instructions to, responsive to receiving the modification of the one or more symbols included in the displayed representation of the modified source code that is shorter than the modified source code, store a first delta value associated with a first modification of the one or more symbols and a second delta value associated with a second modification of the one or more symbols, wherein the first delta value and the second delta value each correspond to a different view of the respective first and second modifications;
• program instructions to, responsive to receiving a query for the first delta value, display the view associated with the first delta value;
• program instructions to, responsive to receiving a query for the second delta value, display the view associated with the second delta value;
• program instructions to provide an option to generate multi-pathed object code with the utilization of the first and second delta values;
• program instructions to provide an option to debug the modified source code, wherein the option to debug the source code pauses execution of the source code according to an instruction headings;
• program instructions to, responsive to receiving a query for the first delta value, display the view associated with the first delta value;
• program instructions to provide an option to generate multi-pathed object code with the utilization of the first and second delta values;
• and
• program instructions to provide an option to debug the modified source code, wherein the option to debug the source code pauses execution of the source code according to the instruction headings.
