I have a source code of Java application.

I have to create relation diagrams of classes.

I have both, binary code and source code.

Are there any tools that create class relationship diagrams - provided with source and binary?

This question comes up once in a while and the stock answer is that tools like Rose and maybe Poseiden do this, but we don't usually like the results. They diagram all kinds of classes you'd really like to ignore like String and collections and so on, so the results are very noisy compared to what you really want to know. Sorry that's not a more encouraging answer.

Sun's EE IDE seems to have something like this. I assume you could import the source code to a new project and generate a class diagram, but I haven't tried it so I don't know how well it works. Right now they're giving it away to anyone who is or becomes a member of their network (it's free).

What do you have to create them for?
