objectiF Visual Studio .NET Edition

While looking for a UML Application I stumbled across objectiF, a software development UML tool from microTool in Germany.  I dowloaded the Visual Studio .NET Edition, objectiF 7.1 and it's way cool.  I've been playing with it all weekend.  I recommend going through the tutorial first.

objectiF integrates with Visual Studio to automate development based on UML and principles of Model-Driven Development – MDD.  There's several variations that allow software development in C#, C++, Java, BPEL, XSD and WSDL.  The .NET Edition is for C# and VB.NET development in Visual Studio 2005, 2008 & 2010.  There's even a version for Eclipse.

I had to open the Template Projects Solutions (.sln) and upgrade them to Visual Studio 2010 to get them to work right.  My only complaint is some of the buttons and menus haven't been translated from German to English. Try it!  microTool has some other software development products available. 

Download objectiF and try it out for yourself.
