The C++ generator is named cpp_generator, the Java generatorjava_generator, the Php generator php_generator, the Idl generator idl_generator, the HTML generator ghtml, the XMI generatorgxmi and gxmi2. If necessary the full path of the plug-out have to be done, warning : under Windows this path must not containspace. are the optional options you give to the plug out-exit is optional and allows to exit from Bouml when the plug-out execution is done.For instance (HTML generator options are given here, XMI generator options are given here) :"C:\Program Files\Bouml\bouml" "D:\...\aze\aze.prj" -exec C:\Progra~1\Bouml\gxmi -uml c:\aze.xmi windows-1252 -exitbouml .../qsd/qsd.prj -exec -flat /usr/lib/bouml/ghtml /tmp/qsd_html -del_html -exitExchanges with BOUMLThe exchanges between BOUML and the plug-outs are supported by a TCP/IP socket. When you ask BOUML to start a plug-out, itsearch for a free port number starting at 1024. In case you have a firewall it may be necessary to configure it.To reduce the number of exchanges with BOUML and run faster, a plug-out does not ask for BOUML each time you want to get a value.Thesystemclasses read and memorize all the data of a given item the first time you access to one of them (with the restrictions allowed byWITHCPP, WITHJAVA, WITHPHP and WITHIDL). This is transparent for you until two plug-outs access to the same data, when oneplug-out modify a value already read by the other, the second plug-out does not see the new value until it unload (an operation defined onUmlBaseItem) the object, then ask for the value.User properties
