Diagram to show hibernate POJOs and tables relation.

[pawan chopra]

Hi All,

Is there any tool which can generate kind of sequence diagrams which can show that this save method is saving an object to this particular table. I have code and hibernate mapping files. Now I wanted to have a document which can have such diagrams for future use.
Kindly let me know if such kind of tool is there?

*Sequence* diagram? If you're looking for an entity diagram showing relationships there are a couple of tools that do this (I prefer the ones that use GraphViz for layout), but I don't know if they're configurable to show both the object and table names (mine is, but it's far from production ready). I could be misunderstanding your question, though.

I think you have understood my requirement. I will try GraphViz but does it generate entity diagrams from the existing code?

Not on its own, no; as I said there are a few tools available that use GraphViz as the back end.
