But isn't HOOD a method too ? Do you mean it can be used without its method ? To tell more, what makes me a bit wrong with UML is that it seems difficult to me to map UML <-> Ada. There so called prototypes, but once prototypes are all over the place, this is finally not UML any more, and it may be better to look for something else. I just know a significant amount of Ada users like HOOD, but I do not know HOOD. I may have a deeper look at it finally... as soon as today. > Do you think we could advertise HOOD as literate programming ;-) ? If it is, and if it not to lie about what HOOD is, well, why not. Perhaps HOOD and literate has a common ancestor ;) Just about to advertise HOOD as literate, I'm just afraid that literate is not very famous either (what is famous today is to do things as quick as possible, and anything involving some more works is not welcome) Thanks to have pointed about HOOD in this context, I may discover something I did not suspected before.
