Dia is a nice diagram creation tool.

DiaCenter consists of several panels (from left to right):

  1. UML => Code: dia2code transfers *.dia to *.py
    (other targets: *.php,*.java, *.idl, *.cpp, *.c or ada-files)
    Note: YOU have to create the *.dia file using dia, select the UML option in dia!

  2. Code => UML: autodia transfers *.py to *.dia
    (other sources: *.php, *.pl (perl), *.java, *.cpp)

  3. UML => SQL: dia2sql.py transfers *.dia to *.sql
    (Target: SQLite, Mysql, PostgreSQL; you might also call dia2code)
    Note: YOU have to create the *.dia file using dia, select the UML option in dia!

  4. SQL => UML: autodia transfers *.sql to *.dia

  5. Configuration: some useful options to set
    Note: The Network-Option may take a 'long' time. DiaCenter try to figure out, if the path to autodia/dia2code is valid.

  6. Load Confi-File: Load another Configuration File

  7. Help: a little DiaCenter-HowTo

  8. About: DiaCenter

  9. Exit: Quit DiaCenter
