6. After drawing your diagram, you can generate code from the diagram by choosing generate

code in menu that appears after right click at the model project name. But to do so, you have to

have at least one active project in the project window. If you do not have, just create a new project from menu, file>new Project. Chose java on the left side and java application on the

right side.

you do not save your source code there. And then press OK button because your UML project

name will be given automatically. You can change it if you want.
