UML Diagrams
As part of the refactoring support UML class diagrams were implemented
to show the classes, methods and attributes during refactoring. They are
also of general use. Each diagram holds the classes for a package, together
with those classes they inherit from, only the classes in the package may
be refactored.
The UML diagrams resize to fit all the components on. Initially the
classes might be spread out, but they can be re-arranged, use "nudge" to
gradually draw the components closer together. They can also be dragged into
position. After being positioned the diagram is persisted (either in the
directory that the source was loaded from).
