> per mailing list thread: http://markmail.org/message/ey5kgtx6xub7zyo5
> There are different use cases here.  The thread originally was motivated by the use case to forward-generate Java classes from a diagram, but also then got onto more general purpose round-tripping tools, plus the idea of generating diagrams from code, "after the fact"
> This ticket is for the latter of these ideas; for rendering, could use:
> - www.plantuml.com
>   can then visualize using:
>    - http://asciidoctor.org/docs/asciidoctor-diagram/
>    - https://borisdevnotes.wordpress.com/2013/12/09/xtextplantuml/
> - www.umlgraph.org  (has a Maven plugin)
> - yUML.me (online)
> - fowler's bliki mentions some others http://martinfowler.com/bliki/UmlSketchingTools.html
> There are various other tools listed on the thread.  Some of these reverse engineer Java, whereas a better visualization would be of the Isis metamodel (showing contributions/mixins etc).
> Anyway, the other tools mentioned on the thread include:
> - http://roomodeler.com
> - http://www.capableobjects.com
> - https://www.eclipse.org/gef/zest/ (also for visualizing diagrams)
> - http://vue.tufts.edu/ (visualizing arbitrary diagrams)
> - http://www.sparxsystems.com/ (roundtripping, a la TogetherJ)
> - http://www.agilej.com  (roundtripping - this is Paul Wells' tool)
> - https://www.eclipse.org/papyrus/   (UML, forward generate, reverse generate ... but isn't visualization)
> - http://www.andromda.org/
> - http://www.ifml.org
