[Uml-user] method overloading impossible ?

Hi,
I've been using Umbrello 1.1.1 for a couple of days. It seems to me
that it isn't possible to create more than one method with the same name
(even though I have provided a different number of arguments with the
overloaded methods). Is that a general problem or is it a glitch in my
installation ?


Scenario descriibing how I try to overload methods:

Double-clicking a class in a class diagram opens the properties window
for that class. 
In the operations section I add the two operations. When the second
operation is being added I get a message box saying that an operation
already exists with that name. When pressing Yes in this message box,
the operation is being added in the overview of the operations section.
When pressing OK the operation is not added to the class in the diagram
though. When double-clicking on that class again, the method is not
present in the operations overview section anymore.



Kind regards,
Thomas.
