UML Lab

What UML Lab is

UML Lab is desktop software for planning, analyzing, and implementing software projects. It is intended for domain experts, software architects, and developers, and integrates with the Eclipse IDE for UML editing, code generation, navigation, and reverse engineering. Users can create class and component diagrams and work with profiles. Diagram tools include context assistance, code completion, in-place editing, model exploration, and automatic layout. Its template-based round-trip engineering synchronizes models and code in real time, while language templates provide a starting point for different programming languages. Users can also customize templates, CodeStyles, and profiles. For existing software, UML Lab supports creating a UML diagram and moving between the model and source code. The product was founded in 2010 and uses a paid pricing model; no price is stated in the available pricing content. The listed deployment is desktop. No security or compliance details are stated in the available facts.
