Re: Plans for integration with xmi2code or other round trip generation?

I think this is mostly possible for C++ and Java. You design your diagram,
add the code in the internal code editor, generate the files and so on. The
only thing not possible at the moment is, to alter the code outside of
Umbrello and merge the changes back.

You are right, there is no enhanced code generator for Python. But if you
like you can take the C++ and Java once and add a better Python generator.
First, I think, you should have a look at the C++ and Java generator to see,
if they fulfill your requirements.
