Hi, first of all - your project just KICKS ASSS!!!! And I don't mean any conventional ass, rather I mean ass of guys like Rational or, with the latest features, Borland and their UML IDEs (tho all respect to Mr Jacobson, Booch and Rumbaugh).
Now to challenge I experience - the "Java Model Reverse Engineering" doesn't kinda work for me !!! I installed clean eclipse version (V2.1.2 B: 0802), demo version of Eclipse UML Plugin Enterprise Edition (V0.8.5 B: 20040227). then created clean project, couple of classes and methods (typical FooBar/HalloWorld application), then I click on project and in pop-up context menu select UML->Reverse engineering and then 'ok'... nothing happens (it shows progress and says at the end 'Java Model Reverse Engineering succeeded', but there are no UML diagrams whatsoever).
One more thing, what the heck does 'Use the bytecode reverse engineering engine' means? Does this engine traverses .class files of my project ????
And to make my message extra long, I reversed couple of methods into sequence diagrams - IT WORKS SUUUUUUPERB !!!!!!!
But why does the changes to sequence diagram don't get forwarded to code or following changes to code don't get updated into sequence diag?
Phew, to summ-up, I want to say - keep on dudes, your project gonna push others out of the eclipse world (but hurry up, they're preparing for counter strike)
kind regards
fahman_dude.

The purpose of reverse Engineering it to capture UML Model from Java language and store them in java source as annotation. It is not to create a diagram. But they are used to create the diagram later. So the behavior is expected. You will get surprised when you right click one package in package explorer and select contexte menu "UML"->"Open Class diagram editor".

Yes, the engine read the byte code to create the sequence diagram.

I don't think so. We have 100 000 registered users. and it increases constantly.

This is nice. How can I have several packages in the same view?
