APPARATUS FOR SITUATIONAL COGNITION AND POSITION DETERMINATION OF SCREEN OBJECT IN PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT, AND METHOD THEREFOR

A screen object positioning device and a screen object positioning method in program development are provided. The screen object positioning device includes: a parent object generating unit configured to generate a parent object having predetermined first object position information; a first child object generating unit configured to generate a first child object which is placed on the parent object and which has second object position information corresponding to a first positioning rule calculated using the first object position information; and a second child object generating unit configured to generate a second child object which is placed on the parent object and which has third object position information corresponding to a second positioning rule calculated using the second object position information. The screen object positioning device can position a child object placed on a parent object in consideration of a situation based on information of the parent object in program development.
