[Uml-user] UML question

> the point is when I use list<Object> I want a list<Object*> from an STL

my mistake, sorry.
I just checked and you are right.. if you didn't enter anything for the 
multiplicity of the association, Umbrello assumes it's 1, and it generates 
pointers for aggregations and objects for compositions, but if multiplicity 
is not 1, it generates vectors of objects (not pointers).

I'll fix this.  For the next release I think it would be great to make the 
container configurable (vector, list, QList, etc)

if you delete the object the part created will keep on living (unless you are 
using Qt's autodelte mechanism OR smart pointers and the object is not  being 
referenced by someone else. If you have objects directly IN your object, when 
you delete it the parts die with it.

at the moment it's not possible. -- packages are implemented as strings, with 
no real value (this will be fixed for the next release)
