[infod-wg] UML & Java

[Chris Kantarjiev]

Dieter asked me to remind the group of the Java interface modeling that I've done.

For starters, I am using Oracle's JDeveloper (since it's free, which means I can 
use it without going through the painful software purchasing process). You can 
download it from

http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/index.html

The interesting version is the Developer Preview of 10.1.3 - it's interesting 
because it knows how to import/export UML in XMI format, which can at least be 
read by other tools.

The java classes and diagrams that I have so far are fairly out of date with 
respect to the current state of the spec, but I'll try to figure out a way to 
package them up (probably a ZIP file) and put them on gridforge for others to 
play with. Since the java world likes to have each class in a separate file, I 
suspect that managing this will be a bit more tedious to manage than our 
documents; suggestions for making this tractable are welcome.
