architecture - Is UML Class diagrams that great? -


so have been on couple research projects teacher of mine , loves uml class diagrams. after using them build complex data structure kept in database (representing graph can change based on physics of real world problem)

i found uml not great use beyond initial stages. found 5 people, multidisciplinary, uml built. when programming starts, uml have changed. on , on , on , over... happened uml lag beyond projects progress due demands , worse thing happened happens... stale comments.

do other people feel same way? there better tool? next project have decided go different route. define flow diagram of different user interactions. program programmed flow diagrams dictate rather structure of uml diagram. have found not have change structure of either 1 , new comers understand program quicker.

is approach program grows above 30k lines of code? 50k? 100k?

in uml defense this. building program in uml allow spot design patterns quicker. nice.

does have input?

the class diagram absolutely magic if use java language. able model, generate code, change code, refactor merge again uml etc..; never problem, perfect updated documentation. database creation use java annotations hibernate has been created class diagram.

really coooool !!!
