I will try it and then report my experiences here if useful.

Moreover, I do not need code generation, althought this will help me to learn more about the way Ada programs big layout can be maped into UML. Beside of that, I just plan to draw some diagrams - nothing more (just feel sometime a two dimensional graphical representation can help to see better) - and have to learn about UML which I know too much few. Thanks for the tip to both of you, Marco and Okellogg
