I'm interested in (and have started) modifying the Doxygen code to allow for the generation of class diagrams using PlantUML, but I wanted to get some input before I got too far in. My current thinking is just to have the diagrams generated as an aside to the Graphviz diagrams. I mostly wanted a tool to automatically generate nice UML class diagrams from my code. I'm already using Doxygen and it has a framework for doing this already. PlantUML does not support image mapping so the nice links that are generated in Graphviz simply aren't available. That said, others probably have a different opinion on how best to utilize PlantUML. As such, I'm open to suggestions as to how best to utilize the tool inside Doxygen (beyond the already available embedded diagrams). I should probably mention that I'm only inclined to add support for PlantUML class diagrams - it's not really suited for the other types of diagrams that Doxygen generates. |
