Hi,
Maybe I'm totally off base here. I'm thinking that there is some sort of XML 
behind this. I'll see if I can find out.

Subject: Re: UML tool

Hi:OK, so a UML diagram is like a FlowChart then. I would think that having 
some vision would make the process of turning UML into an accessible format 
and creating UML documents   possible. For me, it might not be so doable 
since I couldn't see the UML to check out the Line connections nor the 
various boxes and other diagram tools. I also noted that MS used VISIO in at 
least one of their UML modules and VISIO was a real, huge, mess to try and 
script so it is also likely to be a mess to try and convert from and to some 
accessible format.
Allot would depend on how far the previous author got in coding up the 
interface to the UML document considering the Lines and other Graphical 
entities used in standard UML diagrams.
The concept seems straight forward enough but the problem would be the 
software used to create and process a UML Diagram, VISIO is frightening to 
think of, and if the various lines and graphical entities are already in 
place.
It seems I remember reading, some time ago, that a application or whatever 
could be generated using a UML Diagram. Likely the Class or other tags since 
the diagram would likely not hold code itself. Also, there is likely support 
for generating UML diagrams from a Project itself. All these things would 
seem to be dependent on the software processing the UML. It could be quite a 
complicated project requiring sighted help to implement.
Do you know what version of VS it was developed in and how far the original 
author got in his efforts?

Hi Rick,
My understanding is that those who want to do this need to be able to create 
the diagrams that get used to design software. I'm not sure if they need to 
take diagrams and turn them into something that can be consumed nonvisually 
or not.

Hi Inthane: I Googled UML just to see what it was about. It seems a
FlowChartting tool of sorts. Is that what it is or is there more to it? What
features are the UML folks looking for?
I am just curious since I know how to plod around the VS IDE a little.
