Abstract

This poster presents continuing work on Green UML. Green is a UML class diagram plug-in for the Eclipse IDE developed originally for educational purposes. Due to this nature of the tool, its prominent features include live round-tripping and a customizable set of relationships.

As a plug-in to Eclipse, Green is able to utilize the development environment and maintain a real-time synchronization between its class diagrams and the Java source code. The extensible style of Eclipse plug-ins also allows Green to have its own plug-ins, which in turn are the relationship semantics. By allowing end users to create, add, and remove relationships which are recognized by Green, the too becomes highly flexible and easily tailors to a user's specific needs.
