Tips about plantUML

Tip

Use a bash/batch stript to connect …

By default plantUML will call the executable plantuml (without extensions!). So, make sure you have a small bash/batch file with that name somewhere in the $PATH (%PATH% in windows).

That file, which should NOT be part in the project (read: do not check-in), will be called; by sphinx (sphinx-build). And should call the correct real programm. In this case the java (executable) with the correct jar-file (here: plantuml.jar)

DO not forget the pass all parameters that sphinx give to the java-programm!
