When will the UML Editor be available for Mac OS X (Intel) ?

Is there a publicly available future road map? (The MyEclipse RoadMap in the lefthand nav menu is a "where we've been" instead of a "where we're going")

Im sorry I dont have a Mac OS X Roadmap for you at the moment.

You can restart and use -Dmac.experimental=true to try and enable it, but it will likely be unstable.

There are a whole set of other issues with Java on Leopard that have to get addressed as well.

I tried -Dmac.experimental=true and now the UML editor comes up, and the drag and drop of classes, interfaces, etc. seems to work fine, but the Properties view won't display. It gets exception below.

Oh well, I guess this is a good sign that it will be supported sometime in the near future. I used to use MyEclipse UML on Windows in the past, and have switched to ArgoUML for now (since I'm on MacOS X).

I'm sure we would be supporting this very soon. I'll let you know when we have a concrete date for this feature.

We’ve subscribed to MyEclipse for several years. Current release: Version: 6.0.1 GA
Build id: 6.0.1-GA-200710. But we are now on the MAC platform (OS X 10.4) and are reevaluating IDEs.

It's been more than 3 months since this last post - any roadmap in sight yet? Not having UML available will be an issue.

We are actively researching a Mac compatible replacement solution for UML. The preliminary results look promising but working this large of feature development effort into our feature development pipeline is probably late summer, early fall timeframe if all goes well.

Jeez, it's been a long time without any UML support on the Mac; this is getting painful. Any chance we'll see this in our lifetimes?

I know that at our shop, we're now nearly past the point where we need an IDE that works on our platform and includes UML modeling capabilities... we went with MyEclipse because we felt that there was at least a glimmer of a promise of Mac support, but it's hard to justify the continuing wait.

delfuego,
Wayne's comment still holds. There are wishful plans to address UML, across the board, in the 7.x time frame. But, as with any unannounced features, I can't guarantee it at this point. Just know that I'm making management's life a nightmare with constant nagging... that's got to count for something ;)

7.X?!? Really -- that's far enough away that I think you guys have sealed our decision.

I'm sorry to hear that, but we understand that all development teams need to use the tooling that makes them the most productive, even if that's not us all the time.

When we do get our improved UML support in place I hope you have a chance to try it out and we'll be able to win your business back.
