N2  - Many decisions which are made during the implemetation phase of software projects are documented either not at all or through unstructured comments within the source code. This makes the rationale, i.e. the underlying issue with its context, alternative solutions and criteria behind the decision implicit. As a consequence, reproducing the decision later on becomes very difficult. It is thus necessary to make as much of this decision knowledge as possible explicit, since decisions made during the earlier stages are frequently re-evaluated, changed or discarded during the evolution of a software project.
This thesis investigates the possibilities and limitations of documenting decision knowledge through annotations in the source code within the Eclipse IDE. For this, an annotation schema is developed and implemented as an Eclipse plug-in. It is investigated, how this schema can be made flexible in the sense that project-specific adjustments to the structure of the decision knowledge should be possible with as less time and effort as possible.  Also, annotated decisions are mapped to and kept consistent with an external UNICASE documentation.
