do you know "rational rose" news group? or can you use the rational rose?

[±è¿ë°Ç]

i can't search this news group
i tried reverse engineering of rational rose
and make class diagrams from any source codes
but i have a question that why this method can't make a sequence diagram

Generation of sequence diagrams requires knowledge of the
dynamic model of the system. Thus static analysis of the code
does not provide information about generating sequence diagrams.

Can u elaborate this a bit. What dynamic information is required that is
not available in static analysis of the code?

May be for some really complex scenarios I may visualize some issues in
generating the same. But for most of the scenarios what information is
not available in the code from which sequence diagram may not be
generated?

Sequence diagrams really define an event trace of execution.

A static analysis cannot capture the complete sequence of operations
and method invocations.

The following examples should clarify this:

Hey lots of documents are there. I read few of them but could not find out
which one talks about problems/issues in capturing sequence diagrams from
static analysis?

But still my issue is not that it cannot be drawn very accurately from
limited static infos. My point is most of tools even dont capture completely
the logical structure of the application as well by doing reverse eng, for
example inner classes etc. Some loss of information is there as well. But
still most of the tool do allow reverse eng of source code. And it does
provide a good starting point to understand the structure of the implemented
sys.

Similarly, for most of cases it should not be more difficult to draw sequence
diag. As can be scanned from the source code. Containing if else or
whatsoover.

May be in cases of polymorphism it may pose greater problems to know correct
object type from static code, but still most of the sequence diag. may not
involve polymorphic behaviour but naive sequence of control flow.

But for some strange reason is not provided by majority of tools. Which
otherwise will allow good analysis.
