2 years back somebody has written and suggested the name "UML::Blocks" . May be we can choose this as the name...
What do u think?

Do you have a working prototype or it's in planning phase? :)
Be a part of the solution, not a part of the problem.

If you have not started you might see if UMLPad is worth adapting to Code::Blocks.
http://web.tiscali.it/ggbhome/umlpad/umlpad.htm

It uses ANSI(non unicode) wxWidgets 2.6/2.8 written in C++.

Maybe you can checkout BOUML as well: http://bouml.free.fr/index.html
It's developed under QT, fast, quite complete.

But Qt needs its own "qmake ". and also wxWidgets is used in codeblocks development. We have to find something that uses WxWidgets or any other framework that does not depend on Makefile change.

(cue ancient wizard)
It has been ages since I first asked someone to make an UML plugin for Codeblocks. Aeons passed, and no brave hero volunteered to vanquish the demon of non-uml darkness. May the Great Spirits keep you safe in your dangerous quest! :lol:

Translation: I support your idea 100%! :D
Speaking of which, I've also been looking for a plugin that lists you the include chain for a file, it'd be very useful :) (hint: The command "CPP -M[M] file" does it, but it needs to keep track of include dirs)

The wxShapeFramework project may be could be util for your UML plugin:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/wxsf/
OS: Windows XP SP2
GUI Library: wxWidgets 2.8.10
IDE: CodeBlocks SVN / Nigth Builds Compiler: MinGW & gcc 3.4.5

I am interested in helping out on this project.

I have not created an Plugin myself, but have compiled the default plugin template and Compile Code::Blocks from source on Windows.

PS: I am trying once more to get UML Pad to compile and link to Unicode wxWidgets.

Yes, the generating of UML diagrams from C++ source code would be a very important feature.

Do, you think it is worth it to plan to generate C++ code from UML diagrams?

Edit: I think Umbrello an KDE UML program is also worth checking out.

Gaphor is written in Python so could be not worth checking out.
