-UMLGraph allows the declarative specification and drawing of
-UML class and sequence diagrams.
-The current features
-are part of an ongoing effort aiming to provide support for
-all types UML diagrams.
-An IEEE Software article titled
-On the declarative specification of models
-explains the rationale behind this approach.
-The tehnology behind UMLGraph was used to draw many of the diagrams
-appearing in the award-winning books
-Code Quality: The Open Source Perspective (Addison Wesley, 2006) and
-Code Reading: The Open Source Perspective (Addison Wesley, 2003).
-In addition,
-the UMLGraphDoc doclet included in this distribution automatically
-adds UML diagrams to javadoc documentation;
-you can find a short and clear
-tutorial on how to automatically document your project with UML diagrams
-on DZone's Javalobby.

-Many programs build on UMLGraph; follow this link
-for more details.
-In addition,
-Martin Fowler, the author of
-UML Distilled, writes:
--I thought I'd send you a note saying how much I enjoyed discovering UML Graph. I've long fancied a text based way of describing UML diagrams, but never felt sufficiently time-rich to develop anything. --Martin has created a -bliki entry -describing his ideas of what an ideal textual language might look like. - -
