I have recently been looking for a tool to generate Java code from a UML diagram. I have already looked at Papyrus and Omondo for Eclipse. The problem I am having is that the tool is needed in a number of projects that are loaded with JPA and JAXB classes. This makes both Omondo and Papyrus come up short, as annotations and getter/setters are fairly important. What I am looking for is a tool that is able to maintain a graphical class diagram of these projects, like a UML diagram, and then translate that into Java code as needed.
What I am looking for is a reliable Class diagram -> Java code tool, preferably UML based, that supports (as many as possible of) the following:
If anyone knows of a tool (it doesn't have to be UML class diagrams) I would very much like to know about it.
Can Java code be generated from UML? The UML to Java code generator let you generate code from any UML model compatible with the Eclipse UML2 project. You can build your model with the tool of your choice like the regular tree-based UML editor or even UML Designer.
You can generate and update source file from a UML class. Class will be created (if not already exists) or updated. To generate/update source file from UML class, perform any of the steps below: Right click on the class in any diagram and select Update to Code from the popup menu.
IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate allows you to generate UML diagrams. You can use ⌥⇧⌘U (macOS) or Ctrl+Alt+Shift+U (Windows/Linux) to generate a UML diagram for your code which can help you and your team to read and understand the codebase.
You can create UML project for any of your Java project in Eclipse.
Why not looking at BoUml....quite nice and really fast.
