[Uml-devel] The state of the Umbrello

[Oliver Kellogg]

Umbrellofellows,

The Umbrello in the KDE SVN 3.5 branch is currently in mayhem.
I hope to straighten things out within the next few weeks. Please do
report problems other than the ones listed in commit 575645 (see below.)

OTOH we need people to test the KDE SVN trunk Umbrello (KDE4), and if
possible help make it run. The KDE trunk version of Umbrello does not
yet have the commits related to the new UMLFolder class which cause
extra problems, so it can be considered a stable basis for further work.

Thanks for your help,

Oliver


> SVN commit 575645 by okellogg:
>
> New class UMLFolder gives folders a representation in the document.
> Change the document model to match the listview appearance:
> UMLDoc::m_objects is replaced by m_root, an array of modelviews with one
> element for each of the Logical, UseCase, Component, Deployment, and
> EntityRelationship models.
> This prepares for implementing the loading of Rose controlled units.
> Stuff known to need work:
> - Support for external folders is temporarily broken
> - On loading previous XMI files, the contents of user created folders
>   appear okay in the listview but are not located inside the proper
>   UMLFolder in the document
> - The Datatypes folder appears multiple times in the list view
> - Diagrams should appear in the XMI.extension of the respective UMLFolder
