Abstract

A method for managing constant values among disparate code portions that use the same constant names is provided. The method includes inspecting the disparate code portions to identify constant names used in the disparate code portions and defining name value pairs in a text file. The method then includes parsing the text file. The parsing of the text file is configured to generate a definition code file for each of the disparate code portions, and each of the disparate code portions has an associated definition code file, and the associated disparate code portion and definition code file have the same language type. Further, each definition code file defines a same constant value for the same constant names used in each of the disparate code portions.
