Generating ERD diagram

Hi,
I would like to know how should I generate ERD diagram for already available database without using tool. I mean, already they developed database without ERD, Now I have to generate ERD. Please help me.
Thanks

Sheez.. calling a colonial a foreigner. Shame on you! ;-)
As for decent songs. Pink Floyd (with apologies to Dave and the guys) is Roger Waters. One of the best Pink Floydish concept albums is Amused to Death.

Thanks. Will have a look. Suppose to use EA (Enterprise Architect). Have version 7. But I prefer to use my Linux box for most of my development & design work. Hmm... suppose I need to install WINE and see if I can get the thing to work with Beryl.. (Java is not happy with Beryl and I get Java windows with blank gray canvasses).

Generate ER Diagram from Sql Data Modeler

Hi,
I want to use the Oracle Sql Developer Data Modeler to generate ER diagram for my schema. There are huge number of tables in this schema, so I would like to identify only those tables which need to be selected for generating my ER diagram.
Basically, I want only those table which are having relationship with other tables here. The reason being, if I select all tables in the schema then I would get those tables in the ER diagram which don't have any relationship with other tables.
Can someone please suggest writing queries which yield this from data dictionary?
Thanks.

Well, your requirement is based on the the database schemas having been designed with proper primary key and foreign key constraints in place. If they're not there then the database doesn't know about the relationships between tables, and such relationships are just theoretical (and as such usually controlled by the application that uses them).
Of course there are also tables that are used by applications for lookups and other reasons, so they're part of the application and should be included on ER diagrams, even if they have no direct relationship to any one table (or they could have relationships to many tables).
So, rather than try and write queries to figure out what tables are required, why not let the Data Modeller tool generate an ER diagram from the information that IS known about on the database, and then you can see if the relationships exist, or if they're missing and need manually putting on the diagram (or applying to the database).

Best way to generate ER diagram

We have Oracle 11g in our environment. I wanted to know which should be the best way to generate an ER diagram. Below are these steps in SQL developer (version of SQL developer is 3.2.x):
a) View → Data Modeler → Browser
b) In browser tab, select show on newly created relational model
c) Then just drag the tables you want (from e.g. the «Connections» tab) onto the model.
The problem is I am not able to drag the tables.
I hope I have been able to explain my requirement of generating ER diagram.
Please revert with the reply to my query.
Regards

2) If all the tables are required in ER diagram, then should all the tables be selected in point c) of my post.
If all the Tables in your relational diagram are to included in the ER diagram, just click the Engineer button.
If some are to be excluded, you can expand the Tables node in the tree in the top part of the dialogue and deselect the ones you don't want. Then click the Engineer button.
1) How to save the ER diagram
To save your model for future update, you can go to the File menu and select Data Modeler > Save.
To save your diagram as a PDF or image file, go to the File menu and select Data Modeler > Print Diagram.

Generating graphs/diagrams

Does anyone have a good tip on how to generate a diagram/chart/graph over a database table? Do I need some extra program or are there allready something that I can use?
Very grateful for tips / Daniel

Hi
There are some methods in order to send 2d graphics :
a) generate at server level an image and send it to client. There are some sambles at Core servlets book from Sun press (the idea is obtain a grapphics object and encode to jpg etc)
b) use the SVG spec. SVG is a XML gramar to 2D graphics. You have an api from jakarta : Batic. I used SVG not only to send graphs but also cartographic information. It is a standar declared by w3. There are some site where you can learn SVG : w3, adobe and so on. You need, at this moment, some plugin like Adobe or Corel. The grapphic is interactive and via dom you can modify, add events and so on. Next releases of browsers will implement (native) the spec.
c) use of flash. It is not standard. I can't say none because i can't use.
Hope this helps

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!

How do you generate uml diagrams And decoding java programs

1)Hi i have neatbeans 5.0 i have finished witting my code and i wanted to know if there is a way to generate uml diagrams straight from the code.
2) Also i think i have bought a java programme to improve your memory and i wanted to know is there a way you look in the java sorce code so i can change the settings the file has a dynamic.dll(application extension), a level(dat File) and a unins000(dat file)

Remove Entity from ERD Diagram

I have an ERD diagram with several entities on it. I have also
included an entity from another container on that diagram. But
no matter what I do, I cannot remove the included entity from
the diagram without deleting the entire entity.
How do I get rid of the entity on my ERD diagram without
deleting the entity? I've tried checking out/in every
combination of owning container, owning diagram, the entity
itself. I never get an option to delete the reference from my
diagram. I've been doing all this in RON. The erd diagrammer
tool only gives me the option to delete the whole entity.

Did you try to cut it? that is, you should Ctrl+X if you want
to get rid of an entity only from your ERD.

Generating ERD from existing database

hi,
i'm trying to get an ERD for a release 9.2 database. i've been told that using the designer tool is the best way to do this - is this true?
where can i pick up documentation/instructions on how to use the designer to get the ERD?
do i need a specific version?
thanks for the help
santosh sewlal

hi,
i've been trying to generate an ERD using 9i Designer. i've been able to capture a server model diagram, but i get errors (eg. CDS-1504, RME-0020). i've checked metalink, and apparently designer does not support spatial data types or clob/blob datatypes.
is there a workaround or some other tool i could use?

ERD diagram problem

I have created a new blank diagram in ERD (Oracle 9i Designer with newly installed designer repository).
When I click on New Entity icon an point a new entity rectangular on diagram 'Create Entity' window becomes available. Then after filling 'Name', 'Short name' and 'Plural' fields 'OK' button becomes available - just like in tutorial :) but when I click the 'OK' button .... nothing happens. Why? How? How to make a new entity? What I am doing wrong? 'Cancel' and 'Help' buttons work fine.

Try this:
After creating your entity, select from the ERD menu bar: "View" then "Zoom Out" -- or press together the CTRL and "-" keys. Repeat until you can see your entire diagram.

Generate ER Diagram with Sql Queries ?

Hi Expertie,
I am new to Oracle Sql Developer Data Modeler.
I am having doubt in Oracle Sql Developer Data Modeler. Can we create ER Diagram with sql queries ?
Ex: select Ename, EAge, Eemail, ESalary, DDept, Dname, Estatus from Emp E join Dept D on E.EmpId = D.Empid
Where EAge in (20, 25, 30, 35)
Please provide me the answer and suggestion. It will be greatful for me.
Thanks & Regards

Yes, you can engineer your physical model to a logical one, then you'll have an ERD as well. It's a right-click on the model I believe.
To be more specific, if you relational model is loaded, you can use the button in the toolbar that looks like a double-blue-arrow, or you can mouse-right-click on your relational model in the tree. This will engineer your model to a logical one. You'll then have your ERD.
