			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><a title="NClass" href="http://nclass.sourceforge.net/index.html" target="_blank">NClass</a></strong> is a elegant <strong>UML class diagram tool</strong> oriented to code modeling for the C# &amp; Java languages.</p>
<ul>
<li>It is specially well suited to create your O-O design class model (and think and visualize the full set in terms of <a title="Design Patterns [Gamma et al]" href="http://www.amazon.com/Design-Patterns-Object-Oriented-Addison-Wesley-Professional/dp/0201633612" target="_blank">Design Patterns</a>) and generate a skeleton for you in C# or Java.</li>
<li>On the other hand, if you need to document <em>a-posteriori</em> (I hope you don&#8217;t do it frequently, by the way), NClass also incorporates a plug-in developed by Malte Ried to reverse engineering a .NET assembly using reflection to extract the classes and draw the corresponding design class model.</li>
</ul>
<p><span id="more-229"></span></p>
<p>In this second mayor version the key new features are:</p>
<ul>
<li>Project-model hierarchy for multiple diagrams</li>
<li>Name, role and multiplicity labels on relationships</li>
<li>Navigation facilities (Model Explorer, Diagram Navigator)</li>
<li>Inline class editor</li>
<li>Visual enhancements (gradient modes,  ClearType, etc.)</li>
<li>Generation of solution files and <em>NotImplementedException</em> as default implementation</li>
</ul>
<p>NClass is coded in C# by my colleague <a title="Balázs Tihanyi on ohloh.net" href="http://www.ohloh.net/accounts/btihanyi" target="_blank">Balázs Tihanyi</a> (based on Budapest) and it&#8217;s released under the GNU Licence.</p>
<p>In version 2.0, NClass supports different languages like Hungarian, English, Russian, Brazilian Portuguese, German, Chinese &amp; Spanish. If you find a bug in the Spanish translation do not complaint  to Balázs. <em>In this case do it directly to me.</em> }:)</p>
<p><a title="Dowloand page for NClass" href="http://nclass.sourceforge.net/downloads.html" target="_blank">Try it</a> &amp; enjoy!</p>
