C++ Extension for StarUML

This extension for StarUML(http://staruml.io) support to generate C++ code from UML model and to reverse C++ code to UML model. Install this extension from Extension Manager of StarUML.

⚠️ This extensions do not provide perfect reverse engineering which is a test and temporal feature. If you need a complete reverse engineering feature, please check other professional reverse engineering tools.

UMLPackage

  • converted to folder.

UMLClass

  • converted to Cpp Class. (as a separate .h file)
  • visibility to one of modifiers public, protected, private. If visibility is not setted, consider as protected.
  • isFinalSpecialization and isLeaf property to final modifier.
  • Default constructor is generated.
  • All contained types (UMLClass, UMLInterface, UMLEnumeration) are generated as inner type definition.
  • TemplateParameter to Cpp Template.

UMLAttribute

  • converted to Cpp Field.
  • visibility property to one of modifiers public, protected, private. If visibility is not setted, consider as protected.
  • name property to field identifier.
  • type property to field type.
  • multiplicity property to vector type.
  • isStatic property to static modifier.
  • isLeaf property to final modifier.
  • defaultValue property to initial value.
  • Documentation property to JavaDoc comment.

UMLOperation

  • converted to Cpp Methods.
  • visibility to one of modifiers public, protected, private. If visibility is not setted, consider as protected.
  • name property to method identifier.
  • isAbstract property to virtual modifier. (TODO need options to create pure-virtual function or virtual function)
  • isStatic property to static modifier.
  • UMLParameter to Cpp Method Parameters.
  • UMLParameter's name property to parameter identifier.
  • UMLParameter's type property to type of parameter.
  • UMLParameter with direction = return to return type of method. When no return parameter, void is used.
  • UMLParameter with isReadOnly = true to const modifier of parameter.

UMLInterface

  • converted to Cpp Class. (as a separate .h file)
  • visibility property to one of modifiers public, protected, private. If visibility is not setted, consider as protected.
  • all method will treated as pure virtaul.

UMLEnumeration

Weekdays
Monday
Tuesday
Saturday

converts

/* Test header @ toori67
 * This is Test
 * also test
 * also test again
 */
#ifndef (_WEEKDAYS_H)
#define _WEEKDAYS_H

enum Weekdays { Monday,Tuesday,Saturday };

#endif //_WEEKDAYS_H
  • converted to Cpp Enum. (as a separate .h file)
  • visibility property to one of modifiers public, protected, private. If visibility is not setted, consider as protected.
  • UMLEnumerationLiteral to literals of enum.

UMLAssociationEnd

  • converted to Cpp Field.
  • visibility property to one of modifiers public, protected, private. If visibility is not setted, consider as protected.
  • name property to field identifier.
  • type property to field type.
  • If multiplicity is one of 0..*, 1..*, *, then collection type (std::vector<T> ) is used.
  • defaultValue property to initial value.

UMLGeneralization & UMLInterfaceRealization

  • converted to Cpp Inheritance (:).
  • Allowed for UMLClass to UMLClass, and UMLClass to UMLInterface.

C++ Reverse Engineering

  1. Click the menu (Tools > C++ > Reverse Code...)
  2. Select a folder containing C++ source files to be converted to UML model elements.
  3. CppReverse model will be created in the Project.

Belows are the rules to convert from C++ source code to UML model elements.

C++ Namespace

  • converted to UMLPackage.

C++ Class

  • converted to UMLClass.
  • Class name to name property.
  • Type parameters to UMLTemplateParameter.
  • Access modifier public, protected and private to visibility property.
  • abstract modifier to isAbstract property.
  • Constructors to UMLOperation with stereotype <<constructor>>.
  • All contained types (UMLClass, UMLInterface, UMLEnumeration) are generated as inner type definition.

C++ Field (to UMLAttribute)

  • converted to UMLAttribute if "Use Association" is off in Preferences.

  • Field type to type property.

    • Primitive Types : type property has the primitive type name as string.
    • T[](array) or its decendants: type property refers to T with multiplicity *.
    • T (User-Defined Types) : type property refers to the T type.
    • Otherwise : type property has the type name as string.

  • Access modifier public, protected and private to visibility property.

  • static modifier to isStatic property.

  • Initial value to defaultValue property.

C++ Field (to UMLAssociation)

  • converted to (Directed) UMLAssociation if "Use Association" is on in Preferences and there is a UML type element (UMLClass, UMLInterface, or UMLEnumeration) correspond to the field type.

  • Field type to end2.reference property.

    • T[](array) or its decendants: reference property refers to T with multiplicity *.
    • T (User-Defined Types) : reference property refers to the T type.
    • Otherwise : converted to UMLAttribute, not UMLAssociation.

  • Access modifier public, protected and private to visibility property.

C++ Method

  • converted to UMLOperation.
  • Type parameters to UMLTemplateParameter.
  • Access modifier public, protected and private to visibility property.
  • static modifier to isStatic property.
  • abstract modifier to isAbstract property.

C++ Enum

  • converted to UMLEnumeration.
  • Enum name to name property.
  • Type parameters to UMLTemplateParameter.
  • Access modifier public, protected and private to visibility property.
