Bug ID: 419469
Summary: Feature Request: Integrate Umbrello with KDevelop
Product: kdevelop
Version: 5.5.0
Platform: Manjaro
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: kdevelop-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: koma...@hotmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
KDevelop is (in my opinion) one of the most advanced IDEs, but it has a glaring
omission: an integrated UML modeler/Planner or a way to view the UML diagram of
a project or session.
Since a KDE application (named Umbrello) providing this functionality exists,
it would be really nice to have the two integrated.
For example, there could be a button in the Projects or Classes tool view that
opens Umbrello on the current project and auto-generates the UML diagram of the
project. Then the user could work on the UML, reordering the boxes, styling it,
etc.
Furthermore, Umbrello could be fully embedded in KDevelop, as an alternative
Classes view. This way the user can create and edit classes, members, member
functions, etc. from a graphical view that can be expanded into its own window,
zoomed and panned, etc. This would be especially helpful with large projects
that have many and/or massive classes and multiple levels of inheritance.
Microsoft Visual Studio has similar functionality built-in, so I can see users
who often make good use of it, coming from VS, looking for it and not finding
it, which could potentially discourage them from using KDevelop as their main
IDE.
