I usually draw my UML diagrams using Microsoft Visio. But recently I was refered to this free tool, BOUML.

BOUML is a free UML 2 tool box allowing you to specify and generate code in C++, Java, Idl, Php and Python.

I downloaded the Windows version, had problems with getting an uncorrupted executable, I had to choose a different mirror site, I chose Japan

After the successful installation, my AVG resident shield, detected the below as threats. The site has already warned about such thing if you have (AVG or Ikarus)

If you go to the Resident Shield Manage Exception, you can add that specific file.

I still haven’t used this tool and don’t really know my way around it. But I’m always a fan of free software that promise fast performance and doesn’t require much memory (link). I’m going to whip up some tests to see how well my UML diagrams are transferred to Java classes.
