Software reuse is an important goal for every organization developing or using software. Recently, there has been progress on new ways to develop software popularly known as Component Based Development (CBD). CBD is an approach to application development in which ready-made pieces of software are assembled together to enable the rapid construction of applications. This paper examines the role of appropriate new methods and tools in encouraging the wider practice of CBD. A new generation of methods and tools for CBD being developed by Sterling Software is described. As a counterpoint, the support for CBD in other leading OOA/D tools is also compared and contrasted.
