The Software Tools ,[object Object],Rational (by IBM and the inventors of UML) ObjectIF – excellent pattern support. Gui overly redundant and confusing in some places, but community edition is free. StarUML – free, poor code generation but has customisation facility in some javascript like language. Documentation poor. Modelmaker – pattern support lags behind – missing complete set of GOF patterns. Check it again in 2007. Enterprise Architect – pattern blending support poor, but good UML tool with good reverse engeneering and layout. Interface very messy though. Affordable.

Other demos I demo’d all the 5 tools on the night, and there is a video of me doing them all. At the moment the only video released is on my website is the Rational UML tool portion of the demo – see www.andypatterns.com
