Source code to flowchart (Reverse Engineering)
« on: August 14, 2010, 03:45:56 am »
Is it somehow possible to do this ?

I only managed to create a class diagram from source code for now...

Hi'ya... unfortunately thats as far as Sparx EA will go.

You could put in a feature request, the more folks rrequest stuff the more likely (we would hope) that Sparx might do something. (it took something like 5 years of 'requesting' to get forward engineering of state machines,  and Activity Diagrams we got almost as a bonus at the same time).

Could you explain why this would be usefully for you.

PS.  There is an education tool from Microsoft that can produce a 'crude' flowchart from C# source, I can't recall  what it was called or the uri to download it... no use whatsoever if youre using Java or C++ of course...

I just wanted to see a visual representation of code that I wrote... A little curiosity, because I do not usually draw diagrams (before coding) :)

Thanks for the reply !
