Reverse C++ source code into a sequence diagram
« on: July 17, 2014, 10:10:51 pm »
Hello.
I would like to reverse engineer my C++ project into a sequence diagram.
I have already  done it into a UML class diagram but I can't find the way to do it into a sequence diagram.

Any help is greatly appreciated! :)

Under the hypotheses that you build your C++ code on Windows and for Windows and your edition of EA permits, you can use the "Execution Analyzer" (see the user guide) to create sequence diagrams based on the runtime behavior of your application.

Sorry, I forgot to mention that I was using Visual C++ 2013 on Windows 7. Thank you for your help.

Unfortunately, I don't think I can use that tool because I can't compile or execute my program in Debug mode.

You can not create sequence diagrams from code. It would result in a mere endless number of such diagrams. You need to run and sample them - or do it manually.
