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. udi -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Jorge De Flon Sent: Saturday, December 08, 2001 4:06 PM To: Orion-Interest Subject: Re: Off-topic: UML Tools...Help!!!

Re: Off-topic: UML Tools...Help!!!
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 Architect from www.sparxsystems.com.au. For what I do, I like it quite a bit.

RE: Off-topic: UML Tools...Help!!!
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 ... -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]Sent: Thursday, December 06, 2001 7:29 AMTo: Orion-InterestSubject: Off-topic: UML Tools...Help!!!
