    Is there any capabilities in side of MyEclipse to visualize the workflow of Struts 1 or Struts 2? It is very difficult to follow what is linked to what for what transition when by whom where.

    Since MyEclipse can run the MyEclipse Tomcat server just fine, I was hoping that MyEclipse could generate a UML Diagram or some other visualization of workflow/dependency/etc between the jsp, xml, java files for the whole website.

    Otherwise, how do people keep this knowledge maintained, outside of taking their brains and smashing into the next helpless developer that comes along.

    Thanks in advance!

    I take it partially back. I have found the “Struts Flow Overview” view. I opened my struts-config.xml file. It displays a diagram, but the diagram is too small. Can I export it has a giant image file or some how zoom in? Even when I maximize the view tab, it is still too small to make out anything specific.

    Hmm, ok so I guess if i open “struts-config.xml” and goto the Design tab (fix any validation errors) and then right click and choose to “Export Image” this solves my problem. go me!
