ArgoUML-0.34-src.zip_argouml

C++ generator and reverse engineering module Reverse engineering is still a work in progress. Install: run ./build.sh install to generate the argo_cpp.jar file and copy it in the argouml/build/ext directory. It should be integrated into the existing system so that the user will be able to choose between Java, C++ and others. Operations are generated as "const" if they are marked as "query". Operations which are NOT marked as "leaf", "root", "static", "abstract" are generated as virtual function. There are some TaggedValues involved in the Generator Process: On the class: Name: constructor Value: true will generate a default constructor for the class Name: header_incl Value: filename will include given file into header (.h) TODO: what if the user wants more than one?! This problem is applicable to many of the bellow values. Name: source_incl Value: filename will include given file into source (.cpp) Name: typedef_public Value: <source type> <type_name> will create typedef line in the public area of the class with: typedef <source type> <type name>; Name: typedef_protected Value: <source type> <type_name> will create typedef line in the protected area of the class with: typedef <source type> <type name>; Name: typedef_private Value: <source type> <type_name> will create typedef line in the private area of the class with: typedef <source type> <type name>; Name: typedef_global_header Value: <source type> <type_name> will create typedef line in the global area of the header with: typedef <source type> <type name>; Name: typedef_global_source Value: <source type> <type_name> will create typedef line in the global area of the source file with: typedef <source type> <type name>; Name: TemplatePath Value: Directory will search in the specified directory for the template files "header_template" and "cpp_template" which are placed in top of the corresponding file ( following tags in template file are replaced by model values:|FILENAME|, |DATE|, |YEAR|, |AUTHOR|, |EMAIL| ) ( if no such tag is specified, the templates are searched in the subdirectory of the root directory for the code generation ) Name: email Value: name@domain.country will replace the tag |EMAIL| of the template file. Name: author Value: name will replace the tag |AUTHOR| of the template file. ========= On Attribues: Name: pointer Value: (true) will generate the attribute as pointer Name: reference Value: (true) will generate the attribute as reference Name: usage Value: source will lead for class types to a predeclaration in the header, and the include of the remote class header in the header of the generated class Name: MultiplicityType Value: list|slist|vector|map|stack|stringmap will define a multiplicity as the corresponding STL container, if the range is variable ( fixed size ranges are transfered to: type name[size]). Name: set Value: private|protected|public will create a simple function to set the attribute by a function (call by reference is used for class-types, else call by value); place the function in the given visibility area Name: get Value: private|protected|public will create a simple const read/query function to get the value of the attribute (return const reference to class-types); place the function in the given visibility area ========= On Parameters: Name: pointer Value: (true) will generate the attribute as pointer Name: reference Value: (true) will generate the attribute as reference ========= Variable Passing (Operator Parameters): If a variable for an operation is marked as "out" or "inout" the variable will be passed by reference (default) or pointer (needs tag <pointer> - see above), otherwise by value. ======== Default Values: Default values can be stored in the model on Operator Parameters. They will be generated with the code. ========== Preserved Sections: with each code generation, special comments will be generated like this: Testclass::Testclass() // section -64--88-0-40-76f2e8:ec37965ae0:-7fff begin { } // section -64--88-0-40-76f2e8:ec37965ae0:-7fff end All code you put within the "begin" and "end" lines will be preserved when you generate the code again. Please do not change anything within these lines because the sections are recognized by this comment syntax. As the curley braces are placed within the preserved area, attribute initialisers are preserved on constructors. This also works if you change Method Names after the generation. function /* public */ /* void*/ newOperation(/* */ &$test = "fddsaffa") // section 603522:ec4c7ff768:-7ffc begin { } // section 603522:ec4c7ff768:-7ffc end If you delete an Operation in the model. The code lost code will be added as comment to the end of the file. ============ - TODO: It would be nice to have a dialog tab for the properties that are now stored in the TaggedValues. - TODO: It would be nice to raise a dialog if no template files are found - TODO: It woul be important to generate defined types (which could be realised as enum)
