generate UML out of module

lima1 has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Dear monks,

I need to create some boring UML graphics of some modules I wrote for my master thesis. Supersearch gave me autodia.pl, which seems to be broken with current dia versions. The results are not satisfying at least. Umbrello has a nice GUI, but the Perl support sucks.

Can someone recommend me a good application? A linuxapp with perl code import would be cool, but I am thankful for every hint.

Replies are listed 'Best First'.

    Take a look at autodia.

    Update: Oops. Not sure how I missed the fact that you'd already tried it in your original post. Sorry for wasting your time :-/

      yes, I tried this. Like I said, it seems to be broken with current dia versions. For example, the classes are not connected with arrows, are placed on the workspace with a huge space between them. The png output looks completly different.

      Hi All, I am looking for a tool or perl script or any idea on how to generate sequence diagram out of perl code. I know that we have UML::Sequence module but it's of not that useful, as I am getting one or the other errors... kindly help!!! Thanks in advance!!

    You might want to give the SQL Fairy a whirl.

    Which of course would be no help to you graphing module relationships. You seem to have a spree of people who can't read the OP. My apologies. I blame the heat.

    This is something I've been desperate for, for a long time. All the CASE tools can import/export java, some can do c++, but none seem to do perl.

    After a couple of days staring in bewilderment at the reverse engineering code in Argo, and an entire morning chasing dependencies in UMMF to try and write xmi properly, I finally cracked and botched perltoxmi together.

    It's a filthy hack, but it does what I need for the time being - you might find it helps.
