which UML software to learn ?

[iosoft]

Through I know OOPS and JAVA, I never used them with UML.

can you suggest me which UML Tool(s) used in ITs ?

 

[vishalrao]

depends on what you have access to i guess... a good book on UML would help.

software? rational rose (commercial/expensive)

then there's quick n dirty umlpad: '+' windows download available along with source which you should be able to get to compile on linux.

also umbrello for kde: Umbrello UML Modeller

dia for gnome: Dia a drawing program

Yes, I was thinking of Rational Rose.

But, before that, I called a a guy from IBM, TCS, CTS.... none of them use it. Everyone uses new and separate software I never heard of

But interface is almost same....

Please mention the name so I can google it?

Smart Draw or eDraw are pretty decent tools.

I used staruml which is an opensource tool. good tool but crashes sometimes.
StarUML - The Open Source UML/MDA Platform

One of my clients used Enterprise Architect. Its a good one, they needed certain features which were only available on this.

Maybe open source ones are good enough for learning (Actually much more than that).

What about ArgoUML?????

 

[ind13n]

Rational rose is the best for UML although ArgoUML is not bad either and good thing about ArgoUML is that it is free.
