Free Form Visualizer does exactly that - y'all load JAR file(due south) or compiled classes into the tool and, every bit a effect, you run across auto-generated, navigable UML course diagrams. Yous can search for whatsoever class and browse its content every bit well as relations.

  • The tool is a pain when importing and you cannot delete classes already imported. At that place is besides no way to draw multiple classes together if they are not coupled. However it's pretty fast and looks nice. Tip: package your project equally a jar and import it that manner.

  • Some other tip: add your dependencies to classpath (File card). Then you volition (almost) stop having class import errors. I packaged my project with maven once with dependencies and one time without. That mode you can add the dependencies.jar to the classpath and the other 1 in the visualizer.

  • How do we export the data, besides copying and pasting?

I found the following documentation: http://world wide web.ejb3.org/jar_file_reverse/jar_file_reverse.html This tool is non gratuitous but it works pretty well.

Yous can also use Topcased but the quality of the reversed information is mediocre and it is not really possible to recreate advanced diagrams from the reversed model.

There is a hack effectually it but it is not generating any effective results for me. I will refer to the old version to see if that volition do.

  • 5.5 is a besides old version, try the 6.0 version, i remembered adult a project with an UML diagram in that version, of course it was along time a go. I'thou glad i could help, anything else don't hesitate in asking, best regards !!
