Reviews : Logic Explorers CodeLogic for Java 1.5 :

Exporting

Exporting from CodeLogic can be an extremely valuable resource. Primarily, CodeLogic diagrams cam be exported to a number of graphics formats: Portable Network Graphics (PNG), Visio.NET and Visio 2000. This will allow for modification and planning, as well as archiving and sharing documentation. Additionally, exporting to IBM Rational Rose, a product generally used for planning applications, will allow for keeping things up-to-date and integrating older applications and newer projects into corporate development paradigms. I found the exporting to be simple and effective.

The Diagrams and Interface

There are four basic elements to the CodeLogic standalone interface. All of these are shown in Figures 1-3 below. The project browser at the top left allows for selection of a Java project to view. Once a project is selected, the folders and Java source files within it will be shown in a window directly below. Selecting a class from this will highlight the classes in the selected source in a window below, and finally, selecting a class will show it's methods in the bottom left window. The rest of the screen is for viewing diagrams. Two menu items will allow for actions on the diagram (such as exporting) and another for actions on an item within the diagram (such as showing a different diagram of that item). The diagram will be shown in the main window, and tabs at the top allow for navigating between class diagrams, while tabs at the bottom allow for navigating between the three diagram types.

CodeLogic will generate three types of diagrams: class diagrams, sequence diagrams and execution flow diagrams. Let's take a look at each of these and how CodeLogic deals with them. If you are not familiar with UML, I will give a very abridged definition of what each diagram represents. In all of these diagrams, CodeLogic allows for a few filters. For example, whether CodeLogic should show try/catch information. Zooming in and out also allows for seeing the big picture and going into detail, which is quite handy in more complex applications and classes.

The Class Diagram

The class diagram (see Figure 1) is the most fundamental diagram, highlighting the classes used within each Java class file, essentially a class hierarchy diagram. The diagram defaults to showing all of the classes, but clicking on a class will reveal any methods from within that class.
