Create UML Diagram to understand class hierarchy in Xcode

I am stuck, i am working on some huge project with not enough documentation, i was thinking if there was a way with which i can generate some UML diagram of my Xcode project to understand it better. I searched a lot and everybody seem to be pretty sure that omnigraffle is the way. But when i try to use it i get this silly alert everytime "This Xcode project can be diagrammed by dragging its containing folder onto the OmniGraffle application icon."

Can someone help me out on this. I am using the trial version of omnigraffle. Is there some other tool which can help me out ??

If you try PiyushSharma solution and it not work. I think you should check "File->Open->Select your Xcode folder" instead " File->Open->Select your XcodeProject file". It means: dragging its (.xcodeproj) containing folder onto the OmniGraffle application icon

Best luck for you,

Just download OmniGraffle and then go to File->Open->Select your XcodeProject file and that's it you'll have a class diagram.

If your Project is quite big then you can use github.com/nst/objc_dep to generate the .dot file and then open it with OmniGraffle it worked, but not for CircleGraph type.

  • if you create methods/instance variables via @property's it won't list them

For other alternatives you can see class-modeling-alternatives-for-objective-c
