Introduction of JUDE/Professional, JUDE/Community (Portuguese page)]]> Tue, 14 Jul 2009 09:31:35 +0900 https://astah-users.change-vision.com/en/modules/weblog/details.php?blog_id=62 https://astah-users.change-vision.com/en/modules/weblog/details.php?blog_id=60 QCon Tokyo was held at Tokyo conference center, Japan on April 9-10, 2009.

I have attended several sessions and found some common trend. That is, "Simple is best".

In Martin Fowler's keynote speech, he presented Domain Specific Language (DSL). He highlighted readability of code, as role of DSL. It helps business people to understand an application.

Also, Rod Johnson, the creator of Spring, in "Spring in a Changing World" stated the failure of old J2EE at first. According to Johnson, J2EE failed because of its complexity. Now developers want simple solutions. and He concluded that "enterprise Java must get simpler".

Junzo Hagimoto, a Requirement Development Methodologist, described about how to bring business values into system development. There are misunderstanding and conflict between customers and developers. He recommended to show the whole picture to both and have strategy for generating business value. He said that he was seeking to think and do everything simply.

Yukihiro Matsumoto, the creator of Ruby, also introduced Paul Graham's word, "succinctness is power", in his keynote speech "Beautiful Code". He states that code is beautiful and simplicity is also beautiful.

As a developer, I believe that seeking simplicity will improve the quality of code and the working environment of developers. Since new technologies are constantly generated and the world becomes increasingly complex, the simplicity will be one of the key factors for success.]]> Wed, 15 Apr 2009 09:10:21 +0900 https://astah-users.change-vision.com/en/modules/weblog/details.php?blog_id=60 https://astah-users.change-vision.com/en/modules/weblog/details.php?blog_id=59 Martin Fowler made a keynote speech at QCon Tokyo on April 9, 2009. He presented an introduction of Domain Specific Language (DSL).

As an example, he showed us a statemachine diagram, a class diagram and Java code. It is not a difficult code, but maybe we can not understand it at a glance. At least, we have to read the code to understand.

However, it's more readable if you use DSL.

He presented several examples such as XML, CSS, regular expressions, Ruby on Rails and DSL.

Since these languages have meaning in themselves, they are more readable than other programming languages like Java.

We can not develop an application by using regular expressions only, but it's easy to understand when we use it as a part in our coding.

DSL also helps business people to understand the application and communicate with programmers. It increases programmer's productivity, too.

He says code generation of DSL is "optional". It is sometimes useful and essential, but still optional. He seems that he emphasizes readability of DSL over code generation.

In conclusion, he said this speech was an introduction of DSL and we would be able to find more articles in his website. He added he would write about DSL in the future (when he has time!).

C# setting can be added to classes, attributes and operations.
To use C# function, please set ON to the C# option of the project.






















C# setting for class, attribute and operation can be set in the Language tab of each property.

[Class Language Tab]



















Also, C# primitive types can be set to attribute types or operation return values.


[Export C#]

Skeleton codes for C# can be exported from a JUDE project file.

To export C# skeleton codes, go to [Tool] - [C#] - [Export C#] in the main menu.
