[Uml-devel] [Bug 63897] Crash when trying to associate two classes in a collaboration diagram

[David Faure]

After looking at the source, I found out that I could do what I wanted (set
a text on an association in a collaboration diagram) by using
"set sequence number". This is really confusing (since I'm entering a text,
not a number), but it works.

There are many uses of null pointers in umbrello, I wonder if the design is right.
Shouldn't "text in a message" and "text in an association" be subclasses of
FloatingText, to avoid having to check "in which case are we?" in each method
of FloatingText? Apologies if this makes no sense, I don't know the overall
design of umbrello (or else I'd be fixing those bugs myself :) It just seems far
too common to have nil-pointer crashes currently...
