Ask the Oracle for the answer; she knows all!

Sure she does, you just have to know what to ask for...

Many moons ago, I did a bunch of Oracle development with XML columns, and it was:
1) awesome stuff
2) very touchy, even flaky
3) really complicated to figure out
Regarding #2 and #3, ordering of joins and where clauses really affected not just performance, but results!
I'm not sure if they've made any improvements since then, as that particular contract ended a while ago. But I was impressed and it was fun playing with the technology.
And yes, their tooling absolutely sucks. I ended up using a combination of Toad and my own software to work with the database.

I eventually found out about the bug by using our own company tool for Oracle, who does show the actual value

I don't use Oracle, but that makes sense to me. You're using an XMLTYPE field, not a plain text one. That in itself would suggest it does some translations. And on that note, if you dumped that out to STDOUT on a web page it would render properly and not as direct markup on a web page.
Perhaps there's a setting to change that or you can use a VARCHAR type field instead if you don't want translation.

I don't really care about the translation of > into >, but either translate everything or nothing.
It currently translates half because < isn't shown as <

That's the point, maybe they wanted to keep it STDOUT friendly. Who knows. Or maybe the guys at Oracle get some sorta sadistic kick out of annoying their users.

I'm pretty sure that's it!
They're probably reading this and laughing their asses off right now

I am trying to figure out best way to represent software components/module to show to Manages for about the architecture of the software I plan to develop.
Guys have any recommendation?
Flowchart is not working because it gives how my software will work but my focus is on the modules it consists of.
I am using Mind Map software but lets say I am not happy with the outcome.
Ideally I would be bonus point to show the order of modules to be executed ( concurrent and in series)
cheers,
Super

Sounds like a case for UML here.

What Pete said. Look at umlet as it has plenty of examples too. Sorry I'm on the mobile at clickies are hard.

Yes.. UMLet looks promising. I am looking at it now

Just show them this.

Anything more detailed than that is probably too technical for your average management

I agree with everyone saying UML is the way to go.
Here are a couple of things to keep in mind:
1. Remember that each UML diagram is ONE view of the system. Creating one UML diagram will not explain all aspects of the system.
2. Keep in mind that each UML diagram therefore has a specific purpose which can be either:
A) Structural
or
B) Behavioral
Structural Example
Class diagram
Deployment diagram
Behavioral Example
Activity Diagram
If you keep these things in mind, UML will make a lot more sense and you will become a much more powerful communicator of what you are doing.
What It Means
This means that you will most likely be creating a few diagrams to communicate what you are doing from different angles (behavioral and structural).
The Power of Simplicity
This is how UML helps us to focus on one aspect of what we are trying to communicate.
How many times has a developer tried to explain his architecture of some set of classes and he jumps around from class names to specific function calls. Agghghg!!
Focus.
Good luck

1. Most of the words, in the Lounge, are not that proper
2. I counted srebmun only on the other way around...
