Working with& umbrello;
In& umbrello;, there are basically two ways for editing the elements in your model.
Menu for importing source code in& umbrello;
The Language that Umbrello should start with by default.
Options for the Code Generation in& umbrello;
The UML diagram is edited with Umbrello, the free UML diagram editor for KDE.
Organizing a Model with Logical Folders in& umbrello;
The file %1 already exists in %2. Umbrello can overwrite the file, generate a similar file name or not generate this file.
This chapter will briefly explain some other features& umbrello; offers you.
Umbrello could not paste the clipboard contents. The objects in the clipboard may be of the wrong type to be pasted here.
UML; is composed of many model elements that represent the different parts of a software system. The& UML; elements are used to create diagrams, which represent a certain part, or a point of view of the system.The following types of diagrams are supported by& umbrello;
Umbrello; helps the software development process by using the industry standard Unified Modelling Language(UML;) to enable you to create diagrams for designing and documenting your systems.
Since deleting a diagram is something serious that couldcause loss of work if done by accident,& umbrello; will ask you to confirm the delete operation before actually removing the Diagram. Once a diagram has been deleted and the file has been saved there is no way to undo this action!
Umbrello; can import source code from your existing projects to help you build Model of your systems.& umbrello; 1.2 supports only C++ source code, but other languages should be available in future versions.
Note: No standard notations exist for depicting ER Diagrams. Differenttexts on this subject use different notations. The concepts and notations for EER diagrams used in Umbrello are from the following book: Elmasri R. and Navathe S.(2004). Fundamentals of Database Systems 4th edn. Addison Wesley.
For your convenience& umbrello; also offers you the option to automatically save your work each certain time period. You can configure if you want this option as well as the time intervals in the Settings from& umbrello;
If at any time you need to create a new model you can do this by selecting the New entry from the File menu, or by clicking on the New icon from the application toolbar. If you are currentlyworking on a model which has been modified& umbrello; will ask you if it should save your changes before loading the new model.
The development of& umbrello; as well as discussions as to where the program should head for future versions is open and takes place over the Internet. If you would like to contribute to the project, please do not hesitate to contact the developers. There are many ways in which you can help& umbrello;
Note that the Options you select during the Code Generation Wizard are only valid for the current generation. The next time you run the wizard you will need to re-select all the options(your headings folder, overwrite policy, and so on). You can set the defaults used by& umbrello; in the Code Generation section of the& umbrello; settings, available at Settings Configure& umbrello;
If you try to use an association in a way against the& UML;specification& umbrello; will refuse to create the association and you will get an error message. This would be the case if, for example, a Generalization exists from class A to class B and then you try to create another Generalization from Class B to class A.
The Include heading files from folder option allows you to insert a heading at the beginning of each generated file. Heading files can contain copyright or licensing information and contain variables that are evaluated at generation time. You can take a look at thetemplate heading files shipped with& umbrello; to see how to use these variables for replacing your name or the current date at generation time.
Umbrello; is a& UML; diagram tool that can support you in the software development process. Especially during the analysis and design phases of this process,& umbrello; will help you to get a high quality product.& UML; can also be used to document your software designs to help you and your fellow developers.
The first thing you need to start doing something useful with& umbrello; is to create a model to work on. When you start& umbrello; it always loads the last used model or creates a new, empty model(depending on your preferences set in the configuration dialog). This will allow you to start working right away.
Umbrello; can only work on one model at a time, so if you ask the program to load a model for you and your current model has been modified since the last time you save it,& umbrello; will ask you whether your changes should be saved to prevent any loss of work. You can start two or more instances of& umbrello; at any one time, you can also copy and paste between instances.
Write comments for sections even if section is empty causes& umbrello; to write comments in the source code to delimit the different sections of a class. For example public methods or Attributes before the corresponding sections. If you select this option& umbrello; will write comments for all sections of the class even if the section is empty. For example, it would write a comment saying protected methods even if there are no protected methods in your class.
When working on a diagram,& umbrello; will try to guide you by applying some simple rules as to which elements are valid in the different types of diagrams, as well as the relationships that can exist between them. If you are an& UML; expert you will probably not even notice it, but this will help& UML; novices create standard-conformant diagrams.
Remember that& umbrello; makes extensive use of context menus: you can also& RMB; click on a folder in the Tree View and select the appropriate diagram type from the New submenu in the context menu. Note that you can create Use Case Diagrams only in Use Case View folders, and the other types of diagram can only be created in the Logical View folders.
