UML Tools

[barski]

Does anyone have a suggestion(s) for a UML Tool. It doesn't need to be "industrial strength" just something I can learn with. I'm half way through a book on design patterns ("design patterns explained") and want something i can run previous projects through to see what it looks like.

By "run" you mean... reverse engineer to get a UML diagram?

This should get you started...

Let me know how those work for you, I currently use Posiden at home and Visio at work, both have there good and bad points (Posiden doesn't reverse engineer or build into .NET - you have to know you're UML good too) and Visio is so non-compliant that it's not worth using beyond anything basic.
