Diagrams in Reverse Engineering

[Uffe]

Hi!


To my mind this is almost a bug, but let's rather call it a feature request.

When reverse-engineering code you get the option of creating a logical diagram per Package. That's cool.

Except there are some languages which in EA are implemented using Classes where you would expect a Package. Two perfect examples: IDL (<<idlModule>> is a Class) and Ada (<<adapackage>> is a Class).

Checking the Logical Diagram box thus results in diagrams that are frickin' huge and of no use to man or beast.

Would it be possible to get the reverse-engineering thing to create the diagrams inside the outer Classes instead for languages like these?

Cheers,

Lets hope . . . tho really you ought to use a package diagram as the default (Ea Seems to have inherited 'da ole ways. reverse engineering doesn't organise what it manages to extract;)

Class Diagrams are an organised view, Package Diagrams need not be organised.  which kinda side steps Your Request

Sorry; forgot helpfullish bit

Have you thought of transforming the RE material, prior to actually importing into your model... much the way you transform bits to Ada or DDL.

I've no idea how hard that is.. but
