I’m currently checking out different UML tools. Does the visual tool (specifically the Eclipse plugin) provide support for a “glossary” or “data dictionary”? In the past we’ve maintained a glossary by hand but it would seem a natural for the tool to do it.

Hi Jon,

There is a “data dictionary” in the Textual Analysis.

I hope this feature is what you were looking for.
