alma 0.41

Alma is a software with the following functionalities :
- Reads several sources (languages, models, ...),
- Helps to design for object-oriented modeling (definition of classes, relations, patterns, ...)
- Modifies the structure and the code
- Outputs new sources, documentation, diagrams, ...
It is designed for object-oriented modelisation (definition of classes and relations) and for migrating (help to convert) code written in old languages to newer ones. It meets two needs : having a simplified software modeling workshop for small projects and make easier rewritings, ports and encapsulation of non-OO code.
This tool will be usefull for developers who get a code and wish to integrate it in a new project, to rewrite a program in a new language, and for the conceptor/architect who will have the possibilities to declare and manipulate classes.
Alma is able t oread these sources:
- C/C++ (simplified, no preprocessor)
- Class (compiled with jikes)
- Fortran 77 (partial implementation)
- IDL (quite complete implementation, no preprocessor)
- Java (quite complete implementation)
- JavaP (result of javap)
- JSP (Java Server Page)
- MDL (files from Irrational Rose)
- Pascal (partial implementation)
- TLD (Taglib for JSP)
- XMI (XML Metadata Interchange, see the site, partial)
- XSD (XML Schema, see the site, partial)
Alma is able to generate source-code for these languages:
- Autotest (Source code for automatic testing)
- BDL
- C (headers and bodies)
- C++ (headers and bodies)
- Delphi (Object Pascal)
- Eiffel
- Gui (Editing JPanels)
- HTML documentation (similar to the javadoc tool)
- IDL (OMG, see the site)
- Java
- Lisp
- Natural (french)
- ODL (ODMG, see the site)
- Python
- Rebol (see the site)
- Resume
- Ruby (see the site)
- Sql (releases 2 and 3)
- SrcHtml
- Tom (see the site)
- Uml (only inheriting and relations diagrams)
- UXF (UML in a XML format, see the site)
- XMI
- XmlProto (Description of a GUI in XML, should be used with Prototype)
