Description Jonathan Riddell 2003-02-26 23:18:55 UTC

Version:            (using KDE Devel)
OS:          Linux

Code generators should take into account sequence and activity diagrams.

I'd consider doing this, but have no clue as to where to begin. Can you suggest some paper(s)/book/articles which outline how this might be achieved (hopefully without the help of sophisticated AI program).

I think it's just a case of if you have objects in a sequence diagram

[myObject]---myOperation()--->[myObject2]---myOperation2()-->[myObject3]

Then you put a line in myObject2.myOperation() calling myObject3.myOperation()


There will probably be plenty of complications and it may end up not being useful.

Borland's Control Center does the inverse of this where it generates a Sequence Diagram from existing source code.  Looping constructs require the use of the pre-condition labels ex: [if(a<b], but it works.
