Generate UML from Java source

Because I have a big project I must generate the UML for this. Writing UML for 300 classes is overkill.

So is there any solution to generate the diagrams for me?

P.S.
I am using Netbeans.

I prefer using Sybase Power Designer because it supports all types of UML diagrams. Please see wikipedia at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PowerDesigner

PS: I am neither advertising nor associated with this company, but Power Designer has several features that I am fond of.

Try http://netbeans.org/features/uml/ It supports Reverse Engineering of code. Of course all you are going to get is Class Diagrams.

Depending what you need the UML diagrams for, you might want to extract the concepts out of your "300 classes" and make the UML diagrams yourself- it probably helps finding architectural flaws also. Mass converting Code to UML just for the purpose to have UML is usually not very desirable.

If you really need it, yes Enterprise Architect is a good way to go. - classic.

I think that Enterprise Architect by sparxx systems can create UML from Java classes
