History
In September 2010, developer Bruno Pagès announced that he was ceasing work on BOUML (other than bug fixes), citing "copyright violations and mismanagement from Wikipedia administrators".[3][4]
The version 4.23 named "ultimate" was distributed in November 2010,[5] after which it was announced that no more updates would be released.[3] However, several patches were released after the announcement, the last being BOUML 4.23 ultimate patch 7 in October 2011.[5]
In February 2012, version 5 was released as the first paid version. It has a new file format, but is backward compatible in that version 5 can read project files saved by the old versions.[2]
In August 2012, version 6 was released as the first version managing MySQL.[citation needed]
In May 2017, BOUML is again free of use and the version 7 was released as the first of the new free versions, it is still backward compatible in that version 7 can read project files saved by the old versions.[2]
In August 2021, developer Bruno Pagès announced the end of the development of BOUML due to obsolescence of the used framework.[citation needed]

Code generation and reverse engineering
BOUML can automatically generate code from the UML class diagrams and rebuild them from existing source code using the following languages: C++, Java, PHP, and MYSQL.[6] It can also generate code for Python and IDL, but not extract the UML model for these languages.[6]
