This repository provides an exemplary set of tools for the PSE design phase.
It assumes you run Ubuntu and are fine with editing Makefiles etc.
It also requires graphviz and javadoc.
For javadoc, you might have to set your $JAVAHOME environment variable,
it points to your JDK installation.
In my case (Ubuntu 14.04 LTS), this means /usr/lib/jvm/default-java.
The file Lambda.java contains our design.
In theory, it is possible to use multiple files,
but we have not figured out how to do that reliably.
You can make Lambda.png to generate a UML class diagram of the whole model.
You can make docs.tex to generate a tex file with your JavaDoc documentation.
You can make observe.png to generate an example UML sequence diagram.
The major requirement to end up with this choice of tooling is integration with version control. This throws all WYSIWYG tools out of the window, as far as I know.
PlantUML is nice for sequence diagrams.
PlantUML could also do the class diagrams, however UmlGraph can work with actual java code, so we also get JavaDoc and code stubs for imlementation.
Major downside: They all use graphviz dot for layouting. It sucks.
Makefile, Lambda.java and observe.plant are under MIT licence (see below). Do whatever you want with it. The included parts UMLGraph and PlantUML have their own licences. See their websites.
