It was always very complex job, especially during refactoring, to understand these dependencies and make sure no Association or View Link is lost.

This diagrammer tool can visualize ADF BC Association and View Link dependencies between EO's and VO's respectively.

Let's generate ADF BC objects with Associations and View Links for HR schema. Departments EO will be generated among other objects, let's open it:


ADF BC wizards are coming with additional tab - Diagram. It shows relationships between dependent objects for selected EO:


Diagram relationship feature is supported for VO's as well:
