You might also take a look at DbVisualizer. It run across windows, Mac,
Linux and Unix. Last time I looked it had both a free and commercial
version.

Hello,
I'm wanting to do some work with getting a SQL Schema into Dia to get
some ERD/UML type work done. My client won't pay for the commercial
tools. There are several tools in the Open Sourced arena, but they
are pretty much designed to work with MySQL and I'm interested in
PostgreSQL. I'm having trouble getting them running with my versions
of Python or Perl.
What I can't seem to find is an example of the XML uncompressed output
that Dia can import. I'd love to look at it and see what I would need
to produce to get it to import into Dia.
** Could someone run one of the scripts for me and post back
(somewhere) the uncompressed XML output that works with Dia? A table
or two in the XML output would be fine as examples.
Here are some example projects:
=> Windows program but I keep getting "Problem reading sql create
script file"
SQL2Diagram:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/sql2diagram/?source=recommended
=>Python script for turning MySQL SQL into Dia XML but there's some
python error in the script:
https://shiftlock.wordpress.com/2009/11/22/make-database-diagrams-in-dia-automatically/
=> Perl script for MySQL to Dia but I'm having troubles with it and
the DBI.pm:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/sql2dia/
=> phpMyAdmin is supposed to have an export that will work with Dia
but I can't find it and the normal XML output isn't what Dia is
looking for.
Thanks for any help.
