Eiffel is a systematic approach to the construction of quality software,
|
|
|
|
|
including a language, a method, libraries, and development environments.
|

|
|
|
The language was designed in 1985 by Bertrand Meyer of ISE. The current
|
|
|
|
|
language version is Eiffel 3, described in detail in Meyer's book "Eiffel:
|
|
|
|
|
The Language" (Prentice Hall, 1992). Many other books are available on the
|
|
|
|
|
language and the method. The language is non-proprietary.
