About easycodereverse-dict.json

easycodereverse-dict.json is used to convert the URL to extract only the source code from the repository to Astah. By customizing this file, you will be able to reverse source code on Redmine or SourceForge.

e.g.)

With revisions

Note

While you have the Easy Code Reverse Plug-in on, every time you drag and drop any files into Class Diagram, a dialog appears to ask if you want to analyze the source code even though the file you are dropping is not .java.
