crystal-facet-uml - creates a set of uml diagrams.
crystal-facet-uml ensures consistency of relationships and uml element names
between different diagrams. crystal-facet-uml exports diagrams in various
vector and pixel-based image formats.

crystal-facet-uml provides a graphical user interface to
•create diagrams,
•create UML/SysML elements,
•move, modify and delete elements,
•create, modify and delete relationships,
•cut, copy, paste elements between diagrams,
•undo and redo are supported,
•multiple windows can show different or same parts
of the uml model,
•search for elements.
Diagrams are layouted part-automatically:
•The user chooses the relative location of uml
elements towards others,
•crystal-facet-uml selects the exact locations of
uml elements.
•The user controls the positions of
messages/transitions in sequence and timing diagrams,
•crystal-facet-uml auto-layouts relationships in
other diagrams.
crystal-facet-uml manages a meta model:
•Diagrams are organized as a tree, similar to a
book's table-of-contents;
•Uml(TM)/SysML(TM) elements exist only once even
if shown in many diagrams;
•Relationships and features are consistent between
all diagrams;
•Diagram-local messages/transitions are supported
in scenario-based interaction diagrams: sequence, communication, timing,
interaction overview.
Diagrams can be exported as
•vector graphics: pdf, ps, svg,
•pixel graphics: png,
•textual representation: utf-8-txt, DocBook,
xhtml,
•machine-readable model: xmi(TM).
crystal-facet-uml can also be started from command line
•to export all diagrams automatically or
•to check and repair database files.
Without options, the program starts in graphical mode. See
crystal-facet-uml_documentation.pdf for graphical mode usage.
-u databasefile
Starts in graphical mode and opens the databasefile
immediately.
-t databasefile
Tests the consistency of a databasefile.
-r databasefile
Tests the consistency of a databasefile and repairs found
issues.
-h
Show summary of options.
-v
Show version
-e databasefile
file_format export_directory
Exports all diagrams of a databasefile in file_format to
the export_directory. Valid formats are: pdf, ps, png, svg, txt, xhtml,
docbook, xmi.
The following diagnostics may be issued on syslog:
EVT : ...
An event occurred.
ANOM: ...
Something unexpected happened that was handled.
WARN: ...
Something unexpected happened that may cause a
failure.
ERR : ...
Something unexpected happened that has caused a
failure.
journalctl -f allows one to read the syslog.
