Diagrams

A diagram is a collection of classes from your Java projects selected and positioned on a canvas so as to examine their structure and relationships. Diagrams perform a parallel role to the Eclipse Java Browsing Perspective, but show more relationships between types and filter the information they present.

You would typically use a diagram:

• to help build your own understanding of someone else's code,
• to communicate the design within your own code to others,
• to act as a hub for navigation within code as you develop it,
• to obtain a visual measure of complexity of a Java project,
• to monitor the progress of a Java project.
