''Source code generation'' is the process of generating source code based on a description of the problem<ref>{{cite web
''Source code generation'' is the process of generating source code based on an [[Ontology (computer science)|ontological]] model such as a template and is accomplished with a [[programming tool]] such as a [[template processor]] or an [[integrated development environment]] (IDE). These tools allow the generation of [[source code]] through any of various means. A [[Macro (computer science)|macro]] processor, such as the [[C preprocessor]], which replaces patterns in source code according to relatively simple rules, is a simple form of source code generator.{{citation needed|date=August 2017}} [[Source-to-source compiler|Source-to-source]] code generation tools also exist.<ref>Noaje, Gabriel, Christophe Jaillet, and Michaël Krajecki.

Programs that could generate [[COBOL]] code include:
* the DYL250/DYL260/DYL270/DYL280 series<ref>{{cite web

* [[Business Controls Corporation]]'s SB-5
* [[KPMG|Peat Marwick Mitchell]]'s PMM2170 application-program-generator package.
These application generators supported COBOL inserts and overrides.
