Description:	Eclipse plug-in for generating run-time UML sequence and class diagrams for a use case. MaintainJ logs runtime method execution sequence to a file and uses that trace file to render sequence and class diagrams. MaintainJ Instrumentation Wizard instruments a Java/J2EE application and MaintainJ UML Editor renders sequence and class diagram from the trace file. MaintainJ helps you to find out what happens in an application when you run a use case. It can be used to understand large, complex Java code. Features include: - Generate runtime UML sequence and class diagrams for a given use case on demand - Source untouched: The application code is untouched; application is rebuilt using AspectJ compiler to capture the method execution sequence at runtime - Aspects for instrumenting the code are generated by wizard - Collapsible calls: Method calls in sequence diagram are collapsible. Developers can explore a sequence diagram by collapsing and expanding calls as necessary. - Focused Diagrams: Only application classes in specified packages are shown in diagrams. All loop calls and recursive calls are removed from sequence diagrams. - Instrument Java applications or Jar files in Eclipse using AJDT or outside Eclipse using Ant. Generate trace files by running the application with instrumented class or jar files. - Multi-threaded application support: MaintainJ logs separate trace files for each thread in one use case. - JUnit integration - Eclipse Integration: Double click a call or class to open matching method or class in Eclipse. - Print or export diagrams as JPEG images.
