Tool for drawing diagram

[Franky Cheung]

Hi all,

Are there any tools to draw the UML diagrams for the assignment?

I am using the Rose evaluation version, but I am afraid the diagrams are quite large to be copied. Would you please give me some suggestions?

Thanks/Franky

I use Enterprise archictect from sparx systems and StarUml (free) to do my assigment. this are very good tools, try them ...

There are a lot of options here:

JUDE;
Together;
ArgoUML;
Rose;
MagicDraw;

I started using the JUDE but now I'm using the MagicDraw (I like it because is 100% compatible with UML 2).

Is the limited version of the sequence and component diagram of the Community Edition enough to do part 2?

Also, I have IBM Rational Software Architect 6.0, it DOES have som strange icons on the classes "C"-icon and "I"-icon on the interfaces (if I remember correctly). Will this be acceptable to the people looking at your assignment, or will points be deducted (not UML compatible)

That is up to you. The limited version won't fit for you if you are a detailed architect.

I have now downloaded and looked at StarUML, it seems to me to be 100% compliant and similar to Rational Rose in they way it's used. It also let's u share object accross diagrams, which should make it quicker to do the sequence diagrams as the component and methods are already there...

I have no idea.

I have download the StarUML and tried. It is good that I can select the looking of the diagrams to be Rational Rose like.


Thank you.
