  • Name: jUCMNav
  • URL: http://jucmnav.softwareengineering.ca/jucmnav/updatesite/
  • Note: Using the update site is required if you want the MSC Viewer plugin to be installed properly. Afterwards, the jUCMNav and MSC Viewer plugins can be updated manually from binaries.

• Download v2.3.0 here (jar).
  • <font color=red>Make sure your browser doesn't rename the .jar file to .zip or anything else.</font>
• Other files (src, javadoc)

• Windows XP (tested) :check:
• Linux (tested) :check:
• MacOS X (tested) :check:
• Any other O/S on which you can run Eclipse (currently untested - please report your success)

• J2SE 5.0 (1.5)

• For more in-depth information and a guide about installation of prerequisites, see DevDocDeployment.
• Eclipse
  • jUCMNav 2.3 requires Eclipse 3.2
  • We recommend you download the Eclipse SDK.
    • Eclipse 3.2
• The Graphical Editing Framework
  • jUCMNav 2.3 requires GEF 3.2
  • We recommend you download the SDK or runtime.
    • GEF 3.2
  • This can be installed through the Eclipse update function, select the "Callisto discovery site" update site already listed.
• The Eclipse Modeling Framework (EMF and SDO)
  • jUCMNav 2.3 requires EMF/SDO 2.2
    • EMF 2.2.0
  • We recommend you download the SDK or runtime, but make sure you get EMF and SDO; the plugin will not work otherwise.
  • This can be installed through the Eclipse update function, select the "Callisto discovery site" update site already listed.
• [Optional] GraphViz dot
  • For autolayout purposes, you may want to download GraphViz dot.

From update site:

• In Eclipse: Help, Software Updates, Find and Install, Search for new features to install, New remote site:
  • Name: jUCMNav
  • URL: http://jucmnav.softwareengineering.ca/jucmnav/updatesite/

From binaries:

• Download and install all prerequisites, then copy the jar file into your /eclipse/plugins/ directory. Restart Eclipse.
• If you've installed jUCMNav from a latest build instead of an official release, make sure you remove the latest builds.

• End-user documentation is integrated with the Eclipse help system. Access Help > Help Contents from the Eclipse workbench, then select topic jUCMNav Online Help.

• Send your bug reports to <a href="mailto:[email protected]">[email protected]</a>.
• Include reproduction steps, sample .jucm files and, if applicable, copy-paste the error log messages.
• If you're zealous enough, we'll create a BugZilla account for you :)

• Metadata on all URN model elements (see the URNMetaModel)
  • You can define your own metadata on any path node, intentional element, etc. These string / value pairs are intended to be used when writing your own custom plug-in to jUCMNav that needs extra information to do its job. An example would be a test case exporter which would require a few setup parameters to drive the output.
  • Many thanks to Pengfei Chen for this addition!
• Scenarios
  • Traversal algorithm is now more robust, supports multiple threads, knows about the component context in which a path node is being run.
  • Hit count no longer algorithm dependant.
  • Created infrastructure to support:
    • Scenario Traversal Listeners
    • Other scenario traversal algorithms (strategy design pattern)
• Added export to MSC plug-in to jUCMNav.
  • Based on the work done by Daniel Amyot and Ali Echihabi for UCMNav.
  • Actually exports to *.jucmscenarios, the XML serialization of an EMF-based meta-model which clean-ups up the XSLT-related elements required by UCMExporter
  • It can also export its intermediate steps as a *.jucm file representing a flattened UCM and another *.jucm file representing the well-formed (in terms of concurrency) linear representation.
• Now packaged with an MSC Viewer (written by Alex Boyko, Tolik Boyko, Max Kovalenkov, and Tafiqul Abumohammad, CSI 4900 (Winter 2005))
  • Plus a few bug fixes and a new import layer to support *.jucmscenarios.
• New feature: run all scenarios in group. You can now check the coverage of a group of scenarios with a simple click.
• Duplicate UCM / GRL diagrams.
• Connects were not always properly deleted, preventing files from being re-opened (Thank you Mathieu Bertrand, Gabriel Craig Lanoix, and Daniel Amyot for the lenghty debugging).
• Visibility of GRL contribution icons and text now can be set via jUCMNav's main preference page. (partial resolution) (Thank you Daniel Amyot)
• Misc bug fixes, usability enhancements, code cleanup.

• Autolayout still a prototype
• User documentation not translated yet.
• User documentation only partially reflects integration of GRL and scenarios.
• Duplicate map / grl diagram does not set IDs for the new elements.
• There are no extension points to give your own scenario/stategy algorithms and no UI to choose them.
• Visibility of GRL contribution icons and text now can be set via jUCMNav's main preference page, but open editors are not automatically updated. You need to reload the model.
• Bug in export to MSC: If none of your scenario elements are not contained inside a component reference, the exported MSC will fail to open. Workaround: associate at least one of your responsibilities to a component reference.
  • The generated "Environment" component dissapeared if it did not communicate with another component, even if it contained elements such as responsibilities.
