Hi Bob,

this is no malfunction, just a missing feature. The method bodies are compl=
etely parsed, but the information in there is not used yet. I want this fea=
ture, too, and can assist. I&#39;ve just set up my dev environment (eclipse=
 Luna, Java 1.8, it works well so far).

The component is not generated for each class, but for each compilation uni=
t (.java file), because a file can host more than one class. Also, the impo=
rts do not belong to the class, but to the component instance for obvious r=
easons. It&#39;s a great feature (not by me, I forgot who deserves the hono=
r for that!).

I suggest to identify the lines in java.g, where the type identifier for th=
e associated class/interface can be found and discuss how to process them. =
The parser has two passes, so we could search the already identified types =
from the first pass during the second phase.

Regards,
Thomas

<div name=3D"quoted-content">
<div>
<div>I&#39;m trying to generate some diagrams from an existing code base at=
 work and I see some issues with the model generated.<br/>
&nbsp;</div>
A simple example is this.

<div><br/>
public class UseTestUtil {<br/>
<br/>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; private void test() {<br/>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; TestUtil tu =3D new TestUtil();<br/>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; tu.test();<br/>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; }<br/>
}<br/>
&nbsp;</div>

<div>I&#39;d expect to see a dependency relationship from UseTestUtil to Te=
stUtil but nothing is generated. Is there some complication with our parser=
 not being able to manage this or is this just an outstanding enhancement.<=
br/>
&nbsp;</div>

<div>I also notice a component eing generated for every class. WHy is this?=
<br/>
&nbsp;</div>

<div>Regards<br/>
