Code generation with UML

I have been playing around a little with Poseidon for UML (from
http://www.gentleware.com/) and realized that the code generation feature of
this software is based only on class diagrams. So for example modeling class
behaviors in activity or state diagrams is pretty useless if you want to
generate code.

As I can't try all the UML tools out there I'd like to ask what tools
support code generation that is based on structural and behavioral diagrams.
I would like to connect the UML diagrams in such a way that the tool gets a
more or less complete picture of the model and generates appropriate code
(which is not based on just one diagram type).

Does anything like this exist or do I have to wait a couple of years?
(Supported programming language doesn't matter.)

TIA,
Boris
