This article shows you <A HREF="http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/rational/library/08/0826_makady/index.html?ca=drs-">how to generate Unified Modeling Language (UML) models</A> from structured text by using the IBM(R) Rational(R) Software Delivery Platform API, in particular the architecture management piece of the Rational Software Delivery Platform (Rational Modeling Platform, for short). This can save you time if you already have structured information that you would like to use for building UML models. The article gives an overview of the modeling architecture and the programming model. It also provides a detailed code example, along with a code walkthrough and an outline of the steps required to run this sample code.
