UMLGraph allows the declarative specification and drawing of UML diagrams.You can browse the system's documentationthroughthis link,or print it throughthis link.

In order to runUMLGraph, you need to haveGraphVizinstalled in your system path. On most Linux distributions, this can be easilyinstalled using the regular package manager.

To compile the Java doclet from the source code runant on thebuild.xml file.

If you change the source code, you can run regression tests byexecutingant test.

Visit the project'shome page for more information.

If you build against Java 8, please use latest version of 5.X of the Doclet.

Since Java 9 doclet APIs where completely rewritten, the Doclet in version 6 supports only supports Java 9 and above.

In order to use development versions, you can useJitPack.Note that as this is compiled on demand, you may sometimes see a "Read timed out" when the package is recompiled,and it should be fine a few seconds later. And because the master branch can change any time, you may want to usea versioned snapshot instead (see the Jitpack documentation for details).

Gradle:

repositories { maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' } }configurations { umlgraph }dependencies { umlgraph 'com.github.dspinellis:UMLGraph:master-SNAPSHOT' }javadoc {  doclet = 'org.umlgraph.doclet.UmlGraphDoc'  docletpath = configurations.umlgraph.files.asType(List)  tags("hidden:X", "opt:X", "has:X", "navhas:X", "assoc:X", "navassoc:X",       "composed:X", "navcomposed:X", "stereotype:X", "depend:X")}
