Abstract

A computer-implemented method for representing JAVA in UML in a computer system executing a repository program. The method comprises the steps of determining if a file is a JAVA package or project. If it is, then determining if there is a JAVA subpackage not represented in UML, and if so; recursively creating UML subpackages representing each nested JAVA subpackage. If it is determined that the file is not a JAVA package or project, then the method creates UML files representing each JAVA source file.
