UML and Python

[Sean Ross]

Hi. I really don't have much to say about UML except to say that it can be
useful for the reasons you've given:

But, in case you're interested, you might want to check this out:
http://pyut.sourceforge.net/features.php

>From the site:
'''
What is Pyut ?
PyUt :
PyUt is a little UML1.3 class diagram editor with support for output
plug-ins. Export to XML, JPEG, BMP, PS. PyUt stands for Python UML Toolkit.
'''

and, apparently, it includes:

Python generation + reverse engineering
Java generation + reverse engineering
C++ generation

You can use it for class diagrams and use-case diagrams. They're working on
sequence diagrams.

Anyway, good luck with what your working on,
Sean
