trace2uml: Drawing sequence diagrans in Doxygen

From Doxygen version 1.5.3 doxygen supports sequence charts inside the documentation. Original doxygen works together with mscgen (a tool similar to Trace2UML). But because Trace2UML is now call compatible with mscgen, you can use Trace2UML instead. The only thing you have to do by hand, is to RENAME "Trace2UML.exe" into "mscgen.exe" (or do a symbolic link, on Linux). This is because Doxygen has the tool name hard coded in its binary (maybe this will change one day ;-) http://trace2uml.tigris.org/doxygen.htm
I’ve been tinkering with Doxygen and SEQUENCE (see my previous post on this) to make them play well together for the documentation of the Daversy project. The goal was to have Doxygen automatically incorporate sequence diagrams into the resulting documentation, complete with a description of the diagram and links to other relevant parts of the docs. I guess there are up sides to recovering from a knee surgery – it’s been years since I had the opportunity to spend a day on something like this. This is an actual sequence diagram from the Daversy documentation that describes how the Extract command works, and when I run it through SEQUENCE, the following image is generated : Is that cool or what? Of course a sequence diagram without some accompanying text is not worth the effort, so we need a way to write a description along with the definition of the diagram. http://www.gooli.org/blog/doxygen-meets-sequence-diagrams/

itymbi ...: SEQUENCE Archives

http://www.zanthan.com/itymbi/archives/cat_sequence.html The only change is that the source jar file now contains the data for the help files, such as they are. Here are sequence_src.jar and sequence.jar . I really like sequence - but one question remains .. How am I supposed to model async callbacks like Twisted (for Python) provides? http://www.twistedmatrix.com/documents/current/howto/defer gives examples.

WebSequenceDiagrams.com - Draw and Edit Sequence Diagrams in seconds

Sequence Diagrams, also known as Message Sequence Charts, are useful for describing a conversation between two or more things. They can be used to describe how networks work. Sequence Diagrams are also found in documentation and patents. With Web Sequence Diagrams, you can generate a diagram in seconds, when it would take as long as 20 minutes in other tools such as Microsoft Visio, Enterprise Architect, or Rational Rose. http://www.websequencediagrams.com/
http://trac.wikidpad2.webfactional.com/wiki/Pic2Plot This plugin will convert the PIC Graphical Language to an image. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pic_language for more info on the PIC language. You can use this to create all sorts of freeform drawings and diagrams. Another nice resource is http://www.kohala.com/start/troff/troff.html specifically http://www.kohala.com/start/troff/pic.examples.ps and the PIC manual at http://www.kohala.com/start/troff/cstr116.ps .
