Flowchart4j V1.1.0 - Automatic Flowchart Generator For Java - Eclipse Plugin

Why flowchart? Reading code is a sequential activity and if the code it too complex it will be difficult to construct a mental picture of the complete control flow. If understandability decreases, maintainability sure does. It should be even more difficult to explain the logic to others or successors. So, an editable flowchart which is generated from code would encourage developers to document their core functions.

Drawing such diagram manually would be time consuming and de-motivating activity, But if the diagram is automated, coders can focus on editing / writing short description which could make the code live longer.

Having said that a flowchart will not solve all maintainability issues, but it definitely contributes to improve maintainability, understandability and quick documentation.
