You can conceptualize your C++ object designs using this tool without having to write code - I haven't yet downloaded it but from the website it looks like I can put in my own C++ code snippets in it so that I can have it generate the C++ program source code the way I want it to. I was searching for such a tool and I just found one. I used to use Poseidon for UML Community Edition - but that's Java only and with some restriction. This tool is C++ based and there are no restrictions. The utility of UML is that it saves you time if you want to study the design of a software application (such as Scribus! :) if that application does have a UML design document, that is. It gives you a very clear picture of what's going on - without bogging you down in the source code. A good UML tool (like Poseidon) helps you a lot in putting your thought process on canvas in the form of object diagrams very quickly and express your analysis & design visually. Then you can use the finalized design to "generate" the program for you - automatically - well that's the ideal condition - most of the times, you have to edit the generated program source code and make modifications. What really attracts me to "this" tool is that I think I can have it generate the "different" program source code. It potentially can prove to be a highly useful tool for the Scribus developers. -- Best regards, Asif
