An implicit Lagrangian hydrodynamics code for general relativistic spherical collapse is presented. This scheme is based on an approximate linearized Riemann solver (Roe type scheme). This code is aimed especially at the calculation of the late phase of collapse-driven supernovae and the nascent neutron star, where there is a remarkable contrast between the dynamical time scale of the proto-neutron star and the diffusion time scale of neutrinos, without such severe limitation of the Courant condition at the center of the neutron star. Several standard test calculations have been done. Two other adiabatic simulations have also been done in order to test the performance of the code in the context of the collapse-driven supernovae. It is found that the time step can be extended far beyond the Courant limitation at the center of the neutron star. The details of the scheme and the results of these test calculations are discussed.
