• Current software development sees a trend towards modular architectures such as software libraries or components. The main idea is to increase the reusability and decrease the total price and time to ship of a final product. While this trend is slowly meeting its expectation, some issues still need to be solved. One of them is a consistency verification of application components performed before the product is shipped and deployed. Application failures at a target environment caused by the inconsistencies can be more expensive than the overall save of the modular design was. For that reason, we propose a visualisation tool that shows static incompatibilities of components from various component models. We assume this tool helps developers to discover inconsistencies of component applications before they are released.
