XML Company Altova Releases UModel 2006

Features A Rich Visual Interface That Enhance Developer Productivity By Making Software Modeling Easy

Altova has released UModel 2006. UModel 2006 presents a rich visual interface and trouble-free, advanced capabilities that help level the UML learning curve and enhance developer productivity by making software modeling easy and fun. In addition to its previous roster of UML diagram types and Java code support, UModel 2006 now provides support for the latest UML 2.1 and XMI 2.1 specifications, Sequence diagrams, and C# code generation, reverse engineering, and round-trip engineering.

UModel 2006 features context sensitive entry helpers, syntax coloring, cascading styles, customizable design elements, multiple layout views, and unlimited undo/redo, coupled with sophisticated modeling functionality such as code generation from models, reverse engineering of existing source code, and round-tripping modified code to update existing models. These capabilities allow developers, including those new to software modeling, to quickly leverage UML to enhance productivity and maximize their results.

The UML 2.1, the latest version of the UML specification maintained by the Object Management Group (OMG), spans hundreds of pages, defining 13 major diagram types and over 1,000 graphical and textual language elements, plus extension mechanisms. UModel 2006 supports UML 2.1 and simplifies the problem of learning the complex syntax of software modeling by concentrating on the diagrams that are most useful early on in the development process and that yield immediate benefits to programmers, managers, and other project stakeholders.

With its optimal combination of features and its flexibility to work with other tools already used, Altova UModel 2006 will leverage your code-writing experience to get you up to speed with UML and quickly convey the benefits of modeling to your development projects.
