[OT] UML and Reverse Engineering
Hi
Is there any decent Open Source tool out there which can be used to do
reverse engineering of Java code,
If not open source then some thing which really works,
Any input would be really appreciated

Yeah, I also decided it was too much effort to setup the linux install.
I run it within a vmware workstation running XP. I'm feeling dirty
again now.

LOL! Anyway I agree with you, Enterprise Architect is a great piece of
software, I use it in my everyday job and it's fast, reliable and great for
documentation (though I did not use it for reverse engineering).
It's a pity that under Linux it's hard to install (it needs too many strange
dependencies, like Crossover Office :-O), this is the reason why I don't buy
it for my own PC.

oops, sorry. It also appears that Poseidon's community edition isn't free.
I can stop feeling dirty for buying EA.

Err... Poseidon is not open source.
Anyway, I think that NetBeans is pretty nice:

P.S.: A previous e-mail, in which I tried to say that Poseidon is not
open source, was marked as spam....

Poseidon and ArgoUML share a common codebase. Argo does Java -> UML,
and I think the community edition of Poseidon does as well, but I'm
possibly wrong on this point.

I'm not sure whether you want bytecode to java or java to uml?
My favourite commercial tool for Java->UML is Enterprise Architect. Code
engineering is included in the Professional Edition or higher.

A good opensource option is Poseidon for UML
(http://www.gentleware.com/). The community edition is free but that
edition doesn't include Java->UML.
Other vendors provide plugins for at least Eclipse and IntelliJ IDEA.
Check your IDE's plugin library to see what's available.

Ashish,
I have used ESS-Model in the past (long time ago). Last release was in
2003, so it might be too old of a release.

it won't go from bytecode to UML but I've used JAD (and JadClipse) to go
from bytecode to Java:

http://jadclipse.sourceforge.net/
As far as UML is concerned, I saw this non-free tool yesterday, which
looked pretty interesting (especially the roundtrip feature):

I'm not familiar with any of the open source UML tools.
