Mastering UML with Rational Rose 2002

Design More Efficient Applications with the Leading Visual Modeler

Mastering UML with Rational Rose 2002 offers expert instruction in both areas you need to master if you want to develop flexible object-oriented applications: the Unified Modeling Language and the latest version of Rational Rose, the world's leading visual modeling tool. But this book goes far beyond modeling. It teaches you to use Rose to turn your UML diagrams into code--automatically--in the language of your choice. And it's newly expanded to provide valuable information on business modeling, web modeling, new Java functionality, and XML DTDs. Coverage includes:
* Understanding UML, with a bonus "Getting Started with UML" appendix
* Finding your way around Rational Rose
* Creating UML diagrams of all kinds
* Creating a detailed object model
* Creating a detailed data model
* Modeling your XML DTDs
* Generating code automatically
* Handling language-specific code-generation issues
* Reverse-engineering an existing application
* Using round-trip engineering techniques
