Automatically creating sequence diagram.

Hi,
Is there any way to create UML sequence diagram automatically from the existing java code? I am using jdeveloper 11.1.2.2.0. I know this feature is there in older versions, debug->debug with diagram. How can I achieve that in this version?
Regards,
Infy

HI Shay,
Thanks for your reply. Is there possibilities to create activity diagram from existing code in 11g?

  • How to create Sequence Diagrams in Jdev 10.1.3?

    Hi there,
    I´m migrating (trying) from Eclipse to JDeveloper and I´m having several dificulties....
    I´m creating a new project in JDeveloper:
    0) create an application workspace [ok]
    1) create a web application project [ok]
    2) create some packages and Java classes [ok]
    3) create a class diagram related to the
    above classes [ok]
    4) create a sequence diagram [ok]
    5) use the classes into the sequence
    diagram [more and less]
    6) use the methods of the classes into
    the message lines of the sequence
    diagram [no]
    Some observations that are messing me:
    1) Do I need to create an "Object Lifetime" for
    every class and after that select "Attach Classifier" ?? Why I can´t just drag the classes into the diagram (like Jude) ?
    2) Can I use the methods already defined in the classes to create messages in the sequence diagram?
    3) The sequence diagram od JDeveloper is disconnected from the project classes? i.e., is it just a draw ?
    best regards,

    Hi,
    I am glad to find that you are working on the sequence diagram. I take your point about selecting the methods and assigning them to the messages. Unfortunately this feature is gated by some architecture changes and it something I will be actively pursuing as soon as it is possible.
    In reply to your other points:
    1) Do I need to create an "Object Lifetime" for
    every class and after that select "Attach Classifier" ?? > Why I can´t just drag the classes into the diagram (like > Jude) ?The reason for this is that the sequence modeler is simply a view onto a single diagram type that can contain any object. This allows the mingling of different UML type on the same diagram. It can be usefull to mix usecase and seqeunce for example.
    For that reason the default action for java class is to model a java class, and you do indeed need to create a lifeline first. Did you know you could drag and drop the classifier, in your case a java class, from the navigator onto the lifeline. This might be quicker in your case.
    2) Can I use the methods already defined in the classes > to create messages in the sequence diagram?As noted before in the preview you can't select existing messages. This is something we would like to add as soon as it is possible.
    3) The sequence diagram od JDeveloper is disconnected
    from the project classes? i.e., is it just a draw ?The sequence modeler isn't totally disconnected from the project classes; but it wont update as you edit the code if this is what you mean.
    Could you perhaps expand on this point a little bit?
    Thanks,

  • How create class diagram automatically?

    Hi Friends,
    Do you have any idea to generate class diagram automatically? Can you provide a software/IDE name used to generate class diagram automatically from the code itself means reverse engineering?

  • Unable to open sequence diagram created by earlier version of JDeveloper

    About 2 years back, we were using the JDeveloper to create sequence diagrams using the latest version of JDeveloper at that time. The diagrams were created and saved by Jdeveloper in ".oxd_seq" files.
    We are now trying to open these diagrams using the JDeveloper version of Studio Edition Version 11.1.1.3.0. It is not working for ".oxd_seq" file. Is there any way we can recover those diagrams in JDeveloper 11.1.1.3.0?

    Hi Drew
    Normally it's pretty simple.
    1. Copy the .CP file(s) from source computer to intermediate media. (Network server, USB drive, CD, Etc.)
    2. Copy .CP file(s) from intermediate media to destination PC.
    3. Open Captivate and open file(s) in new location on destination PC.
    At no point should you ever consider leaving the .CP file on a network drive and opening Captivate and browsing to the file to make edits while it is in the network location. You always want to work locally.
    Another thing to consider is that Captivate seems touchy with CP files. You will want to ensure that all PCs are using the same version of Captivate. This includes patches. I wouldn't want to save a .CP file from a patched version 4 and expect to open it without issues on an unpatched version 4.

  • Creating UML sequence diagrams using UML Modeler

    Has anyone tried to generate UML sequence diagrams using JDev's Modeler utility. Is there a workaround for creating sequence diagrams. Does Oracle have an very near-term plans for supporting sequence diagrams.
    Thank you.
    Antonio

    While I've done a bit of work with UML, I'm by no means an expert, so this may be a dumb question...
    Isn't the point of UML (and other modeling languages) to abstract the design of a system away from the implementation? I'm hard pressed to think of a situation where a UML diagram would change based on the language chosen for implementation.

  • How to generate Sequence Diagrams for existing code

    Hi,
    I have a web application written in Java/Jsp's. I am looking to generate sequence diagrams automatically for the existing source code using this tool. I am not sure if this is possible using this tool. Can some one please explain me if that is possible using this IDE tool? If so can you please let me know how this can be done?
    Any response is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.
    Vijay

    Hi,
    Yes, you can reverse engineer operations and create sequence diagrams using Java Studio Enterprise.
    Just right-click on the operation in the UML model that has the source file associated with it, and select "Create Diagram from Selected elements" or "Reverse Engineer Operation".
    Thanks!

  • Sequence diagram lifeline in Oracle BPA Suite

    I try to create sequence diagram in Oracle Busines Process Architect 11g. I use type of model "UML Sequence diagram". But in palette there is no object with type "Lifeline". How can I add lifelines to my sequence diagram?

    i guess you are clicking on file>new>model , or something like that.
    y dont you first go to designer/explorer , make sure you see the navigator frame, and click on "local" in navigator frame to start the local database first. adn then login to any database to create a model/group.
    In case it does not even happen then, and it still says unable to start the local server, check out the logs in <Oracle BPA Suite>\LocalServer\log directory and check what the error is.

  • XMI & UML Sequence diagrams

    Hi everybody!
    Does anybody know where I can find some example or tutorial on how to write an XML file (following the XMI specification) representing an UML sequence diagram?
    I mean...I want to be able to write that XMI file in order to give it to a UML tool that can read it and transform it into a UML sequence diagram.
    Thanx
    Lexis

    There's very little hand-authored XMI around, so the only tutorial you're likely to find is:
    - create sequence diagram in UML tool
    - press export to XMI button
    If you're trying to use a specific tool or library, indicate which; if you're trying to work from the XMI specs, indicate which version and which tool you're targetting.
    You may well be best off exporting a few simple sequence diagrams from your tool of choice, then reverse engineering them, as tracing through the XMI -> MOF -> UML specs is both time consuming, and libiable to throw up inconsistancies, semantic variation points and implementation options.

  • Saving Sequence Diagrams in Sun Java Studio Enterprise 8

    I'm having trouble saving my sequence diagrams! I create the diagrams press ctrl-s, click the Save-All button, when I close and reopen SJSE8 some of my diagrams are missing! When I look in the directory it appears that they have been saved because I have .eltd and .etlp files with the name of the diagram.
    In SJSE8 I still have the entries under Model, but not under Diagrams.
    It appears that the "link" or the "reference" to the file where the diagram has been saved is broken.
    Anybody have any ideas on how to fix this?

    I tried what you said on both Windows 2000 and Windows XP but could not reproduce the issue that you have. Could you please provide more detail like the following see if I can reproduce in order to help you.
    - what UML project type did you create (Platform-Independent Model, Java-Platform Model, etc.)? If Java-Platform Model, did you associate a Java project for code generation?
    - how many sequence diagrams do you have?
    - are the sequence diagrams created inside the package or just under the Model level scoping?
    - do you have other diagrams in the project too? If so, what type and how many of each type?
    - any other info you can provide will help
    Thanks,

  • Message order in Papyrus sequence diagram xmi file

    Dear all,
    I would like to ask you if you could help me by explaining me how message ordering information of Papyrus sequence diagrams is represented in the corresponding xmi files.
    For each lifeline, I would assume that the order of messages is shown in the xmi file in the coveredBy attribute of the respective lifeline element.
    If yes, I have observed that the order there is not shown correctly. Adding a message seems to be always appended at the end of the messages list, instead of being inserted inbetween its neighbouring messages.
    If no, then how can I get from the xmi file the message order for a single lifeline?
    I am using just two simple lifelines exchanging messages, without any combined fragments or complex notation. My Eclipse version is Luna, and I just downloaded the Papyrus 1.1.0 version, the one that Mars uses.
    Thank you a lot in advance. Any information you could provide me regarding this issue would be extremely useful.
    Best regards,
    Alkis

    Since I haven't still got any answer, let me rephrase the question and make it more general:
    Do Papyrus sequence diagrams store message order information?
    As far as I have understood, they should, but I believe that it is a Papyrus bug that, when creating a new message, order of MessageOccurrenceSpecification fragments in XMI file is most frequently not respected. The same can be seen from the MessageOccurrenceSpecification fragments in the Model Explorer for the respective interaction in Papyrus IDE, order of them frequently seems random.
    Another thing which I strongly believe is a bug is that, when creating a new combined fragment sometimes the lifeline information of message events in the XMI file gets lost (attribute 'coveredBy' of each lifeline, and attribute 'covered' of each MessageOccurenceSpecification fragment get blank).
    In any case, I would be really grateful if someone could answer my initial question so that I know that these assumptions are correct, find a way to temporarily circumvent the problem and file a bug report about that.
    Best regards,
    Alkis

  • Automate to Sequence - Set To Unnumbered Markers

    I'm using Premier Pro CS3 on a Windows XP machine. I've found that if I select the "Sequentially" Placement Option under "Automate to Sequence" the other option (Set to Unnumbered Markers)in the drop-down box completely disappears (not just grayed out but gone from the program). It doesn't re-appear with a re-boot. The only way to get it to come back is to first, find the Adobe Preferences file buried deep under the users tree and then delete it. I've had to do this several times and it works. I've recently installed CS3 on a brand new workstation (the one described above) and the problem has continued, a new problem is, now I can't locate the Adobe Preferences file anywhere on the machine so I'm unable to delete it.
    Is this a problem that Adobe is 1)aware of, and 2)working on.
    Are there any work-arounds?
    I use/need the "Set to Unnumbered Markers" frequently and hate wasting time chasing the rabbit when it runs away.
    Thanks.

    Thanks, Jeff.
    I just found that out the hard way trying to troubleshoot someone's problems on the phone.
    Seems you have to locate the ...\Adobe\Premiere Pro\3.0 folder in your user area and delete/change the name of the 3.0 folder nowadays to restart the many individual files that hold all the preferences nowadays.
    Looks like a useful folder to which to create a shortcut on the desktop to save having to keep looking for it if you have problems.
    For Tom: I guess it's the same with CS3, but with earlier versions the Preferences files were not replaced by a re-install of the program (nor deleted by the uninstall). Logic being that they are created if not there - so if they are there already the old ones are re-used. So you do need to deal with the preferences files to sort corruptions to the user interface or whatever, and a reinstall is unlikely to fix the problem.

  • Reducing the width of a sequence diagram

    Does anyone know how to reduce the width of a reverse-engineered sequence diagram?
    Studio sequence diagrams are very wide in relation to their height. This is because horizontal messages are separated by only small amounts, but the vertical lifelines are separated by large amounts, especially if the objects have long names and class names.
    This feature causes problems when trying to export diagrams to A4 landscape pages.
    In other UML editors, I could overcome this problem by arranging the objects as in two rows of "bricks" along the top of the page. The first object would be in a "normal" position. The second object was positioned high enough to partially overlap the first object. The third object was placed in the "normal" position, but partially below the second object. And so on.
    This allowed the width of a sequence diagram to be reduced to almost half of its original width.
    This is not possible in Studio, because:
    1) The objects cannot be moved vertically.
    2) Even if they could be moved vertically, they will not allow themselves to overlap another object. This is because the bounding box of the objects extends right down to the foot of the lifeline. (I don't know if "bounding box" is the correct term. I mean the box with the sizing handles.) When one object is dragged to the left so that it overlaps another object, any objects to the left of the dragged object immediately jumpfurther to the left.
    Another possibility to reduce the width would be to allow the object name and class name to be on two lines. Such as:
    objectName:
    ClassName
    This happens by default in some UML editors.

    Found a better way to duplicate the sequence diagram
    as a workaround for the Save As function.Great suggestion! Thanks!
    Because of the estimated large amount of sequence diagrams that I need to do, your tip will save me hours of work. Even if "Save As" is implemented, it will not be much faster than your method.
    Here is an interesting feature of your suggestion.
    All my experimentation is done using the BankAccount tutorial. I have several "copies" of the same operation. Each copy was produced using "Reverse Engineer Operation" on the class operation in the dependency diagram. I then modified each "copy" beyond all recognition.
    If I now invoke "Create Diagram from Selected Elements" on the sequence diagram interaction node for each copy, each new diagram is the same as the original reverse-engineered diagram :)
    BTW, here is my non-techie solution for copying. No LOL please.
    In the project file location, there are two files for each sequence diagram. For example:
    mainSD_1168604900517.etld
    mainSD_1168604900517.etlp
    These files can be copied. However, they must be copied to file names that are registered by studio.
    1) Copy the two files, using arbitrary file names.
    1) Reverse engineer a new sequence diagram simply to get two more file names.
    2) Rename the two copies to these new file names :)
    3) In the project tree in studio, this would produce duplicate diagram names. So in the ETLP file rename the diagram using the <diagramInfo> tag.
    You might wonder why I go to so much trouble to produce a copy, rather than simply reverse-engineer as many copies as I need. The answer is that on the first sequence diagram, I would like to make changes that persist in every other copy of that diagram, even after messages and lifelines are removed to split the diagram.
    Compared with my method, your method will allow me to take a couple of months off, and still produce the same amount of work :)

  • Message text in sequence diagrams not displaying in editor

    I split a large sequence diagram into smaller parts so that the parts could be included as graphics in a user manual.
    Here is how I split the diagram:
    1) Create the single large diagram. Name the diagram "SD".
    2) This diagram produces an SD_etlp and an SD_etld file.
    2) Copy these two files to different names. Eg SD_etlp_01 and SD_etld_01.
    2) Delete 10 messages from the bottom of the original diagram. Save.
    3) Copy the two files to SD_etlp_02 and SD_etld_02.
    And so on.
    So the diagram editor only sees the original file name. But this file is actually getting smaller and smaller. I can re-edit any of the saved files by changing their name back to the original file name as seen by the diagram editor.
    I produced about 10 smaller sequence diagrams without problem.
    On the latest sequence diagram in the editor, I lost all the message text. Everything else was fine. (I think I shortened the lifelines too much so they encroached on the actual messages. Note that I do not shorten lifelines in the editor, because these changes are not persistent. I edit the lifeline heights in the ETLP file.)
    Losing the message text should not have been a problem. Because I thought that all I had to do was return to one of the earlier diagrams and start again.
    However, on returning to all the previous saved diagrams, all the message text had disappeared from those diagrams as well. (I had already printed out those diagrams, so I haven't lost everything.)
    When I open the ETLD files, I can see all the missing message text for each diagram, for example:
    <name value="public void addNode( String Unnamed, String Unnamed )"/>
    Can anyone tell me how to show these messages on the diagrams?

    When I select "Show Message Numbers" , all text is displayed as "1:"
    If I right-click on an individual message, "Show Message Name" is not checked. If I check it, it says "Unnamed".
    I may have introduced a corruption as follows:
    1) One message text disappeared. This may have been due to the excessive amount of manual dragging on large diagrams (see later).
    2) I right-clicked on the message. Select "Show Message Name".
    3) The text "Unnamed" was displayed.
    ( I now know that "Unnamed" will be displayed for any message, even when message text is displayed :)
    4) I typed "public void logout( )"
    5) This produced the correct text on the diagram.
    Some effects of this were:
    1) In the model, a message was added to the contents of "Messages", named "public void logout()". All the other messages are simply called "Message".
    2) There is an entry in ".QueryCache" file:
    nodeType_="Message" name="public void logout( )" id="DCE.14D184C9-7052-ECFE-D9E9-48CB83B1E357" fullName="public void logout( )"/><Name nodeType_="Lifeline" name="self" id="DCE.37BD6533-F0C0-FDF8-7391-521338CD4F86"
    This is the only cache file entry that relates to messages.
    If I can roll back the changes made by typing "public void logout( )", would that cure the problem?
    1) As well as noticing that the message text is still in the ETLD file, I also see that, for each message:
    <visible value="true"/>
    I have been backing up matched pairs of ETLP and ETLD files which earlier produced good diagrams. If these files later produce a diagram in which the message text is missing, then there must be at least one other file that has been corrupted. Does anyone know what other files I should back up to produce a self-consistent set of files that can be used for recovery?
    By the way, here is the reason that I am spending so much time trying to recover message text rather than simply regenerating the model. The diagram has 250 messages. The horizontal spacing between some objects is equal to 20 times the width of one object. This means that I have a lot of dragging to do. Each manual action increases the risk that some error will be made (and usually is). Even at 5% zoom, the diagram is several screens wide, so messages can be disappearing off-screen without my knowledge. Simply closing up the objects takes two days work, because there are several combined fragments boxes which must be handled very delicately, or message text disappears.

    Generally Sequence is used in a Trigger to generate some column value automatically. Something like the IDENTITY column used in SQL Server.
    If i create trigger sequence of numbers are getting generated but in case if i want to include explicit sequence no at the end of the table say like '9999'...it is not getting updated This totally depends on how you have written the trigger.

  • Association is not automatically created between synonyms.

    I use JDeveloper 11gr2. When using wizard to create "Business Components from Tables" using OE(order entry) schema to create entity objects, associations are not automatically created for entity objects associated with synonym. For example, when i launch that wizard with OE schema selected, I select Customer (table) and Employee(synonym) to create my entities. When the wizard finished, the association between Customer and Employee is not automatically created for me. When i drag these 2 entities to the business component diagram, there is no association link between them.
    Thank you for answering!

    Customer table in OE schema have ACCOUNT_MGR_ID point to EMPLOYEE_ID in Employee table in HR schema. When I use create "Business Components from Tables" wizard, I expect association between EMPLOYEE and CUSTOMER to be automatically picked up by ADF BC which is not the case. Do i have to manually create association for Entities that are belong to different schema? Thank you.
