    Hi everyone, Does anyone know a good UML tool (free/paid) ? Something that has code generation over the graphic modules, reverse engineering, and some integration with VS2008 if possible. Thanks in advance Leandro :cool:

            I use Star Uml[^] for my personal stuff (if they actually require UML), Visual Paradigm for the Office stuff since they actually bought a copy of it.

                    Yeah, Sparx's Enterprise Architect is the best one. It can catch the whole Product Cycle. I'm using it from years. Visual Paradigm has a Comunity Version - it is free. It is Cool too.

                      It totally rocks. I love how it can automatically apply different patterns for you. Wonderful stuff.

                            UModel by Altova is by far the best commercial product available! It has everything you requested and much more! Jerry Sheehan

                                Classdraw is another option if you only want class diagrams and don't want a heavyweight program. No code generation etc but it's quick and draws everything for you

                                      I've heard that Rational Rose is really good. Whatever you do though, steer away from Borland Together. I've seen free, open source versions that were much better. Unfortunately, our IT department think they know better then we do what kind of programs we need and I've been forced to use the Borland garbage.

                                        We used to work with Microsoft Visio. Very irritating. We settled 9 months ago for Enterprise Architect (from Sparx Systems). Great product. Not perfect but way better than Visio... and a lot cheaper than Rationale Rose.

                                          Microsoft Visio for Enterprise Architects or Visual Paradigm

                                          Mostly, when you see programmers, they aren't doing anything. One of the attractive things about programmers is that you cannot tell whether or not they are working simply by looking at them. Very often they're sitting there seemingly drinking coffee and gossiping, or just staring into space. What the programmer is trying to do is get a handle on all the individual and unrelated ideas that are scampering around in his head. (Charles M Strauss)

                                          This may not be a popular thing to say here (Judging by what ive read below) but Visio? Seriously? I tried Visio a while back, but found it to be hard to use, slow and of course in true MS style, didnt use the defined UML standards for a few things... I used Rational Rose Enterprise version, and to be blunt, its brilliant. The problem with Rose is, its expensive, but otherwise, In my opinion, makes mince meat out of Visio. Now I'm not sure if Visio does this, but the whole ability to generated C++ code back in the 2003 version, direct from your model was awesome; creating Sequence Diagrams from drag and drop i found better than Visio and even designing Database Schema's (which Rose will then dump out as SQL code, so creating what youve designed takes as long as the SQL code takes to run!) What I found Rose 2003 (and of course Visio 2005) lacking, was little support for Tests and in the case of Rose 2003 (i dont know if Visio can do this) not being able to 'insert' code into a method, which would appear when the method was later generated. Still, if youre looking for a SERIOUS UML Tool, you have to at least try Rose; it has a steep learning curve, but nothing you shouldnt be able to figure out assuming you know the basic's of UML (in my case, I vary rarely use more than Class Interaction Diagrams and Sequence Diagrams to establish my relationships and thus define my classes and methods)...
