Code Reverse-Engineering Tool

[Saurabh Agrawal]

Hi,

I have some old legacy code which i want to study.So i thought of reverse engineering the JAVA classes so as to create some UML diagrams which can be used to do analysis.

Essentially, it can be Sequence diagram , class diagram etc, which can tell me the method calls .

Can anyone suggest me some free eclipse plugin to do this.I have tried using OMONDO but it didnt work for me.

Any quick help will be appreciated.

I'm not aware of any Eclipse plugin. Check out JarInspector.
It will serve your purpose.

I downloaded Jarinspector and opener the jar of my project in the UI. It created a small box as diagram based on that jar. I cant see full fledged expaned diagram by it.Morever i guess it wont create a sequence digram for me. Any thoughts on the 2 points??

Thanks,
Saurabh

You need to click on this diagram. Right click expands the package, left does the opposite.
To generate sequence diagrams you need to try other tools like TogetherJ.

ArgoUML can reverse engineer class diagrams
