UML For REALbasic [ Source: Excel Software ]
May 2010- REALbasic is an object-oriented programming language for Mac OS X, Windows, and Linux computers. The Unified Modeling Language (UML) is the industry standard notation for modeling object-oriented software. This paper shows how to extract a UML design from a REALbasic project, model REALbasic software using UML, and generate REALbasic code from UML. Furthermore, it lays the foundation for a code translation project to or from REALbasic, Objective- C, Java, Delphi, C#, C++, or any other ...
