Hi, I suppose many professional embedded sw developers read this list. Could a few people give me an idea how they document their software architecture. Using UML? I just can't get into this stupid uml diagrams because most work we do is C, non OO, and I don't see any positive sides to using uml. Only more work. At the same time I do see that it's necessary to document the architecture, but are there good alternatives apart from UML or galactic modeling language (dot, line and arrow) :-) bert

I think doxygen has some facilities for software architecture documentation. I have used doxygen to generate the User Manual of my software, not specifically for software architecture documentation.
I don't get most of UML but Sequence Diagrams are gold and ERD's can be a good overall block diagram of sorts. So how does block A talk to block B. Most of the rest of UML is either above my head or not applicable.
// This is my opinion.
