Sparx Systems are proud to advise that the first BETA of version 4.0 of Enterprise Architect is now available for download.
Registered users can access the BETA from the Registered User section of our website.
Version 4.0 is a significant step forward, with comprehensive support for the new UML 2.0 standard, adding many new UML modeling types and diagrams. The help file provides some detail on the new types. Comprehensive information can be found in the OMG UML 2.0 specification from the OMG website (
