A method for producing glycolide, including the steps of: heating a mixture containing a glycolic acid oligomer, a high-boiling point polar organic solvent having a boiling point of 230 to 450° C., and a tin compound under normal pressure or reduced pressure until a temperature at which the glycolic acid oligomer is depolymerized, to thereby dissolve the glycolic acid oligomer in the high-boiling point polar organic solvent; heating a solution, in which the glycolic acid oligomer is dissolved, under normal pressure or reduced pressure until a temperature at which the glycolic acid oligomer is depolymerized, to thereby form glycolide by depolymerization of the glycolic acid oligomer in the solution; and co-distilling off the high-boiling point polar organic solvent and the formed glycolide from a depolymerization reaction system.

An image reading apparatus includes a light source with a first luminescent portion that outputs light with a first wavelength range and a second luminescent portion that outputs light with a second wavelength range, the wavelength ranges being different from each other; a light-receiving portion that receives light reflected from an original irradiated by the light source; a scanning portion that shifts a reading position of the original in a vertical scanning direction by changing a relative position between the original and the light-receiving portion; a switching portion that alternately turns on the first and second luminescent portions when the scanning portion shifts the reading position, wherein a vertical scanning resolution for a first data obtained when the first luminescent portion is turned on is independently set from a vertical scanning resolution for a second data obtained when the second luminescent portion is turned on.

After light transmitted through platen glass is incident on a lens and focused, the light is transmitted through a parallel flat plate and imaged in a CCD image sensor. The resolving power of the CCD image sensor is 600 dpi in this case and one pixel is 8 &mgr;m. A parallel flat plate is provided with a function for displacing all rays incident on the plate in parallel. The quantity of parallel displacement differs depending upon each wavelength. Therefore, lateral chromatic aberration can be reduced to the extent that it is ignorable (approximately {fraction (1/10)} of pixel size) by making reflected light outgoing from the lens and having lateral chromatic aberration incident on the parallel flat plate.

Through an operation of a debugger 57, a process with respect to certain assumed collaboration is carried out for each module such that breakpoints may be set up at appropriate locations in a program. Executing the program, call relations up to a setup time of a breakpoint are stacked on a call stack. Using the debugger 57, these call relations are stored into a collaboration repository 51. A builder 52 is a means for controlling an overall development environment. This builder 52 may call a debugger 57 or another function 53 for displaying program information that comprises a collaboration matrix 54, a call graph 55, a class browser 56 and the like.
