Umple combines textual modeling with programming. UML concepts such as associations and state machines can be expressed alongside conventional program code, or used independently to build models.
Changes to textual models can be reflected in diagrams, while Umple can generate source code and other artifacts from its models. It is useful both as a modeling environment and as a model-oriented programming language.
This is free and open source software.
