I found that UML doesn't lend itself too well to the Ruby language. Since UML doesn't provide for mixins and modules, I modeled them as stereotyped dependencies and classes. Don't know if they are useful for anyone but they are nice to have for a quick reference to figure out how ActiveRecord is structured with all the mixins and modules. </p> <br /> <p> <div align="center">ActiveRecord<br /> <a href="http://i.nfectio.us/images/ActiveRecord.png"><img src="http://i.nfectio.us/images/ActiveRecord.gif" /></a> </div><br /> <div align="center">Associations<br /> <a href="http://i.nfectio.us/images/Associations.png"><img src="http://i.nfectio.us/images/Associations.gif" /></a> </div><br /> <div align="center">ConnectionAdapters<br /> <a href="http://i.nfectio.us/images/ConnectionAdapters.png"><img src="http://i.nfectio.us/images/ConnectionAdapters.gif" /></a> </div><br /> <div align="center">Exceptions<br /> <a href="http://i.nfectio.us/images/Exceptions.png"><img src="http://i.nfectio.us/images/Exceptions.gif" /></a> </div> </p> Sun, 30 Jul 2006 16:57:00 -0700 urn:uuid:d8793bd9-11c6-41f4-9b64-1f711bf66d7d Bob Silva http://i.nfectio.us/articles/2006/07/30/activerecord-uml-diagrams Ruby on Rails activerecord UML
