Hi Guys,
I am just a passive reader of this mailing list. I am looking for some
good UML tools for Linux and happened to try both Argo and Dia. In my
humble opinion they are both good drawing tools. Argo does go a bit
further in providing support for code generation and documentation, but
what bugs me the most about Argo is its lack of support for nesting of
packages. For example in the package centric view, you are given a "root"
package and you can only create packages with in it one level deep.
Which means I can not create the following heirarchy "java.awt.event".
So I can create sub-packages one level deep but I can not put anything in
them.
With Dia such a concept is non-existent for it is only for drawing
diagrams is not usable for maintaining a complex model.
If all you guys are interested in only maintaining an object/class model
maybe you should look into togethersoft's whiteboard (their demo
version). It's free of charge for life but is pretty useful for class
modelling. It also has C++ and Java code generation support (I only used
java so I can't comment on C++).
with best regards,
Taimoor.
