diagram

I want to represent the logic of my program through a diagram, since the program is pretty complex; I need a way to explain to another person, why and how something happens in my program. Is flowchart the only option? In UML, different diagrams are intended for different things, using different methodologies. Considering we tend to lean to the Object Oriented Methodologies, I will explain the different diagrams and how they work. Use Case Diagram - The point of use case models is to identify and define all of the elementary business processes that the system must support. This is from both a

I would like to generate a class diagram with relations for my visual studio project. I opened my solution, added a new ModelingProject , added a new .classdiagram file but when i want to drag my folders or my classes onto the diagram layout I get the "not available" sign. Does anyone has any idea on how to fix this ? JG's Spark For generating the class diagram visual studio is providing the in-built option please use that, Go to class view window of your project, RightClick -> select View -> click on View Class Diagram . This will generate class diagram for your project. Ref: https://msdn

In a use case diagram what is the difference between <<includes>> , <<extends>> and <<uses>> ? Are <<includes>> and <<uses>> are the same thing? includes and uses are the same. From http://www.agilemodeling.com/essays/useCaseReuse.htm above An include dependency, formerly known as a uses relationship in UML v1.2 and earlier Nice writeup here: http://www.agilemodeling.com/essays/useCaseReuse.htm Summary from that article: An extending use case continues the behavior of a base use case. An include dependency is a generalization relationship denoting the inclusion of the behavior described by

I would like to create diagram class using pyreverse. I download it, and when I use this command: pyreverse.bat -c PyreverseCommand -a1 -s1 -f ALL -o png test.py I get an error "The name 'dot' is not recognized....". What is "dot", how can I create diagram class? Thanks for answers. dot is part of Graphviz ( http://www.graphviz.org/About.php ). You need to install Graphviz and then modify your PATH so Windows (what I assume you are using) can find it. "the command pyreverse generates the diagrams in all formats that graphviz/dot knows." ( http://www.logilab.org/blogentry/6883 .) Once installed

Hi there I want to have a uml sequence diagram with dot language, now I have the following problem I want to have the layout as follows with a, b, c and d in a straight line at top but with the lines going straight to the bottom. How can I achieve that? a b c d | | | | | | | | perhaps can I achieve that the a, b, c and d with its belonging edges are clusters where I set a different rankdir for the clusters? EDIT Just found a solution by adding invisible edges between a, b, c and d but any other solutions? Dave Webb What you describe seems to be what dot does by default. For example, this graph

Currently trying to get to grips with SQL for the first time, so I am working through a few problems. Here is a sample database spec: Students (name, gender, course) do projects(title). Each project has two supervisors (name, gender, department). All students do a project but not all projects get taken. More than one student can do the same project. Students meet one of their supervisors regular and these meetings are recorded (date, time, student, supervisor, notes). So far I've got an ER diagram drawn up which I think is correct: I can get the basics (e.g. creating a Student table etc) but I

This question is related to diagraming a software process. As an electrical engineer, much of the software I do is for embedded micro-controllers. In school, we learned to illustrate our algorithm using a flowchart. However, nowadays, many of my embedded projects are heavily interrupt-driven where the main process runs some basic algorithm a variety of interrupt sources provide its stimulus. So, my question is, what are some diagramming techniques that I can use to illustrate my process such that future developers can understand what I am doing easily and get involved in development? Here are

I want to have a correct use case diagram for an online job portal system. Here is my attemp: I have some doubts: I can't see where making "Login" use case witch is an important use case for this system. This use case diagram is not showing the difference between a simple visitor and a registered one. The former could view vacancies, view advice without the obligation for having an account. The latter could view vacancies, view advice, upload CV (after be logged), apply for a job (after be logged) ... Is having two actors "Simple visitor" and "Registred Visitor" in my diagram will be correct?
