UML Sequence Diagram Generator
First beta of my Declarative UML Sequence Diagram Generator available. It supports:
- 100% Java (Java 5)
- LifeLines with full activation lines
- Messages (Sync, Async, Data Mapping, Self Call)
- Embeddable frames (including split frames)
- Multiple page ouput (set the aspect ratio and multiple pages will be generated, with lifeline headers)
- HTML image map support (outputs full HTML image map for any element on the diagram)
- API works in headless mode, comes with example to dynamicly generate images from within a servlet
- Fast(ish) - generates a image with 10 lifelines an 100 messages in under a second
Why did I write this? I wanted to generate run time diagrams of Enterprise Intergrations but could not find a suitable tool. The only pure Java implementation I found that came close was this tool from Alex Moffat. Whilst it did not meet my requirements - it inspired me to write this implementation.
Click on the image for a better view. The images below are for the same diagram as above, except the aspect ratio for the output was set to 297:210 (landscape A4).
