I would say that within a class diagram, you can't. In other UML diagrams (such as sequence interaction), the function is simply used as if it were a method belonging to an object. If you need to make it clear where this function is located within the code, use a note on the diagram. Remember, UML is not able to accurately capture all implementation details of a system; It's not meant to. > > More theoretical question is if I create classes on the fly, how UML can > reflect that? Again, don't try to depict fine-grained implementation details. If the dynamically generated class is important to the class diagram, include it but don't include all of it's internals (methods etc.). Use a note to exaplin how/when/why it is generated. > > (I know that Python code itself is best at communication design ideas, > but there are some people which prefer to talk UML.) > > (Have not found anything relevant with google) > > Thanks! > > Regards, > Roman Suzi Rob C -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
