29 May 2007 IBM® Rational® Software Delivery Platform gives you a
customizable UML 2.1-based visual modeling and design tool that enables architects,
systems analysts, designers, and others involved in the development process to
clearly document and communicate processes, flows, and designs. Rational Software
Modeler, Rational Systems Developer, and Rational Software Architect also integrate
with other tools (like WebSphere® Business Modeler, Rational Testing products, and so
on) in your environment to support true team-wide development. This
tutorial walks you through some of the UML 2.1 modeling capabilities provided by
Rational Software Modeler and Rational Software Architect.
In this tutorial
- Transform a UML model into Java source code
- UML visualization
- Reverse transformations
Objectives
After completing this tutorial, you will know how to use
Rational Software Architect (or Rational Systems Developer) to transform a UML
model into code, edit source code visually, and reverse-transform code back into
a model.
Prerequisites
This tutorial series assumes that you have some understanding of the Unified
Modeling Language (2.1). Knowledge of Java development and UML class diagrams
is helpful, but not required.
System requirements
To complete the steps in this tutorial, you need to
have Rational Software Architecta> or
Rational
Systems Developer
installed on your machine.
All of the prerequisites for Rational Software Architect are located in the
Resources section of the tutorial.
Rational Software Architect works best on a machine with at least 1 GB of
RAM.
