Hi

We've been using SparxSystems modelling product (Enterprise Architect) 
found it fairly good. If you also consider its very small price, you might
find it even more nice.

if you dont have the money, you can use a opensource tool as fujaba (goggle

I agree totally, very feature rich, a real quality product, more
features than you could ever possibly use, but at £5000 a seat the price
is slightly prohibitive. I was lucky enough to use Together Control
Center for my Thesis, if you can afford it, get it!
Otherwise, for 10% of the functionality, for free get Poseidon! If you
like it and use it commercially pay the $150 or so dollars for the
Professional version.

Also, for a reasonable amount of functionality at a fraction of the cost, look at 
Enterprise

RE: Off-topic: UML Tools...Help!!!

2001-12-06 Thread SAURUGGER,PETER (A-PaloAlto,ex2)



I can't say anything 
about Select, but we are using (Ir)Rational Rose here - a sometimes harrowing 
but necessary experience. Harrowing, because of numerous littlebugs in the 
software, workflows which work only under certain circumstances and not others, 
and certain features only partially implemented (like roundtrip engineering). 
Necessary, because in any medium size or larger project the UML models and 
diagrams are an invaluable tool for understanding what's going on. I personally 
like to first look at the big picture, than hack up a few prototype 
implementation classes, and then combine them and make model and class design 
coherent. Rational certainly does allow us to do this (although not as easily as 
we would wish). Of course it integrates better with other rational tools (e.g. 
clearcase) than other UML modeling apps.

I have been using 
MagicDraw a bit, mostly for reverse engineering which was not quite as well 
supported by Rational. It doesn't have the number of features that Rational has, 
but is certainly an interesting alternative for smaller projects (and much less 
expensive). I have to amend that we are in the process of installing the latest 
update of Rational, which seems to take care of many concerns that we had and 
adds features like better roundtrip engineering, better integration with tools 
like jbuilder, andJSP support (caveat emptor - we have not used this 
version yet, will know more in a couple of weeks) which can be a major headache 
because it doesn't easily fit in the typical class model.

So despite my 
irreverence, (ir)rational Rose helps us as a group to document the model and 
keep track of the overall structure of the project.

If you go with Rose, 
make sure it's the latest version - it certainly seems to make life considerable 
easier (and be less irrational)

Cheers

 
--peter

P.S. A coworker just 
told me that he used Select a couple of years ago - it was really clunky 
then.People here had betterexperience with togetherj than select. Of 
course this is all coming from opinionated people like myself 
...
