Netbeans 6.7 was the last version to support UML. For 7.1, there's (1) a semi-broken workaround and (2) yWorks UML Doclet, which will let you generate diagrams. See this for more details.

Edit: You can install the UML plugin manually on 7.1.

Solution 2

Here is how to install on 7.1

Add a new configuration to update centers: Tools -> Plugins -> Settings -> Add

As the URL copy the following into the textbox: http://dlc.sun.com.edgesuite.net/netbeans/updates/6.9/uc/m1/dev/catalog.xml

Now on the tab Available Plugins there should be UML in category UML. Install the plugin, and its done..!!

I want to install/enable the NetBeans plugin for creating and viewing UML diagrams, as seen here. However, fairly extensive searching has turned up results for NetBeans 6.5 and lower, whereas I am using NetBeans 7.1.1. (I've tried those solutions, though, but to no avail; what they said should be in the IDE was not, such as the Update Manager) Does anyone know how to get NetBeans 7.1.1 to show UML diagrams of Java projects?
