I recently wanted to work on a java project, but wished to generate a non-java-specific UML representation for it through use of the reverse engineering feature. However, it appears that "regular" UML and java-centric are quite distanced from each other. Ability to convert from one to the other would be very useful. I'm not as UML savvy as I'd like to be, but it seems that this would almost be entirely cosmetics-based -- it would be very nice to see it as a project option, rather than seperating the two project types entirely. Thanks!
I agree it should be an option for java based uml project, it seems similar enhancement was missed during migration to issuezilla. But separation of projects is still valid because java based project impose java restrictions on uml module and there is only uml restrictions in independent uml project
Yes it would be very nice to right click on a few classes are a package in Java project to generate diagrams. It would also be nice to have a UML information embedded directly into the Java project tree. Such as use cases, component diagram, sequence diagrams, etc. I have marked this as a duplicate of issue 82140 *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 82140 ***
As I understand this issue is about "java" notation in java based uml project/diagrams when user may want too see standard uml notation which is more common then first one and be able to use re/code gen/etc funtionality at the same time.
Sorry, I should have made it a bit more clear to begin with -- sergeyp is correct. I find little wrong with the java-based representation of UML (usage of verbose modifiers such as "public" instead of "+", etc.), but it would certainly be nice to go from java-centric notation to generic UML, and hopefully the other way around (I'm not so sure that is possible).
