UML Diagram Editor

UML Diagram Editor (umlde) is a graphical tool for designing relational databases using UML diagrams and exporting them to ready-to-use SQL script. This tool uses Trolltech's Qt library and Linux as a developement platform. SQL syntax used for exporting is compatible with PostgreSQL. The project is almost finished (but not bug-free). The source code of this project is released under terms of GNU General Public License.

Current state

2004-05-16 -- Although this page hasn't beed updated for a while, the project is almost finished. We are documenting everyting for doxygen now, cleaning the code and adding any missing bits before upcoming presentation at our University... See screenshot.
2004-01-03 -- Basic functionality was implemented. It is now possible to add tables and fields, move tables, zoom diagrams in and out. Documentation is almost finished.
2003-12-03 -- We are approaching a very early alpha stage (prototype). The code is growing up and it is (often) compilable, but not yet usable. Current goal is to have almost complete GUI and some basic database operations working.
2003-11-22 -- We have a preliminary sketch of GUI and work-in-progress specs regarding umlde usage, functionality and file format (based on xml). We have set basic classes that handle GUI and underlaying structures. Most of them have been defined in C++ header files; a diagram for them is also being created and available in doc/gui.dia.
