Anyone knows a good UML application?

Think it would be nice to have those features after all.

btw: Have you seen Bruno Pagès warning on his page of BoUML? Don't know how long it's there but he stopped developing the application. Only working on bug fixes.

A little correction: ArgoUml doesn't do reverse engineering (from c++ to UML), it only generates c++ code from a diagram

@KP84: I saw his warning, but it's a good program, just not very intuitive and easy to use

I have used StarUML, and works quite well. A bit buggy, but fairly good overal

I think i have problems with UML applications lol. I tried 6 different programs and seems that even the simplest diagram require lot of works. They are not intuitive (or i'm very noob with them.. writing diagrams on paper is much more faster and relaxing. that's my opinion)

Yeah, I find paper a lot more attractive

I found automatic code generation from paper to c++ is a bit slower

I started using these programs because I wanted a fast way to write down a class interface but found out they're really useful once you learn a bit about them.
