It is called UltraViolet. </p> <p><img src="http://ryan.ramage.googlepages.com/UltraViolet.jpg" alt="UltraViolet"/></p> <p>It is a UML class editor that currently supports the following features: </p> <ol> <li>Classes. <ul> <li>Class name. Mark a class as abstract.</li> <li>Class annotations such as color, icon, plural name, etc... </li> <li>Attributes. Add all fields for the class with name, type. Also annotations for each one, ie. show in tab, flatten, etc...</li> </ul></li> <li>Associations. Draw associations between classes. Associations can be 1-1, 1-<em>, or *-</em>. On each side of the relationship, define if users can navigate to the other side. </li> <li>Model Inheritance. A class can extend from another class. </li> <li>A umlc compiler. Create an application or a UML diagram from a simple text format. Please check the .uml files generated to see the syntax. </li> <li>A JMatter control panel. From this panel, control the main targets of the JMatter build script. This way it is possible to run the application without leaving UltraViolet.</li> </ol> <p>To try UltraViolet, download it from here:</p> <p><a href="http://jmatter.org/distribution/umlc-20060903.zip">UltraViolet</a></p> <p>Unzip it, and read the README.TXT file to get started. </p> <p>Browse the project page at:</p> <p><a href="http://code.google.com/p/umlc/">http://code.google.com/p/umlc/</a></p> <p>Watch for more features and integration with JMatter in the next little while!</p> Sat, 02 Sep 2006 04:48:00 -0500 urn:uuid:992860e8e1a16196534c0b6d18f87c0b Ryan Ramage http://jmatter.org/articles/2006/09/02/ultraviolet-a-light-uml-editor-for-jmatter
