I'm looking for a UML tool that'll reverse engineer the diagrams for me from source code. So far I have found UMLStudio, FUJABA and AgileStructureViews. Can't afford UMLStudio full version, FUJABA doesn't seem to work (getting blank diagrams when I load my classes), and AgileStructureViews looks too customized. I want to create very simple black and white class diagrams with standard +, - and # notation for visibility. Basically, UMLStudio does great except for the fact that demo version limits my classes.

Any suggestions?

Netbeans offers plugins for reverse engineering... however I have never played with the plugins

You could try Umbrello.

Thanks, I'll give that one a shot.

Edit: Ah, I checked out Umbrello and there doesn't seem to be an easy way of getting it installed on Windows without first dling the (very slow and big, quote them) KDE on Cygwin first. And the package link isn't even working for me. =/

I don't have a Linux machine.

There's a version of Umbrello that will run natively on Windows, but still involves some downloading. KDE Windows Initiative - Welcome to The KDE on Windows Initiative

I dled and went through the installer at KDE Windows Initiative - Download Information and it got stuck while searching for latest releases. None are showing up. I tried several servers and it was the same. =/ Also, I'm not sure how it functions. Do I dl and install KDE and then install Umbrello on top of it or does it already contain Umbrello?

You download a KDE installer that will let you choose to download/install Umbrello.

Ugh, I have tried all 4 compiler modes and several different dl servers, to no avail.. the release list is just empty, all the time. I don't see any solution to it on their site.

Okay, I finally got it to work by using an earlier version of KDE. Installed Umbrello Version 2.5.4.

Edit: And it works!
