[Dia2code-general] CVS

[Javier O'H. <j....@ti...>]

At last, I decided to set up the CVS repository.  Now all the developers in 
the Dia2Code project can commit their modifications without the need to wait 
me to do a release.  This is a Good Thing(tm) since I'm terrible slow at 
that.  

So far, the difference with the 0.8.1 release is a SEGFAULT bugfix.

Current registered developers in the site are:

Me 
Martin Vidner
Christie McGee
Ruben Lopez
Steffen Macke

I tried long time ago to register all Dia2Code programmers with a SourceForge 
sccount into the project.  Yet, I maybe left (unintentionally) someone out.  
If you feel like contributing to the project and/or are a current Dia2Code 
developer which is not listed here, please send me a mail and I'll add you.

Please refer to this list for further discussion about CVS 
modifications/etiquette/whatever.

[Dia2code-general] foreign keys using bezier curves

[Margus <mv...@ho...>]

Hello, I use "Standard - BezierLine" elements to model relationships
between classes and attributes as foreign keys in order to generate
SQL DDL. Please find an example attached.

The problem is that currently, the codebase doesn't seem to make
use of the "connection" attribute to automatically
reference foreign keys or even model associations, the use of the
role names from the "UML - Association" elements seems more of a
work-around.

I'd suggest adding to the umlassocnode structure a pointer to the 
attribute node that references the other object (or the attribute that
implements the association with the other class).

Were there any plans to make use of the connection element?

[Dia2code-general] Generating java "import java.awt.*"

[Rubens R. <rub...@ya...>]

Hi ALl,

 I was trying to make dia2code generate an import
statement like this

import java.awt.*;

 and the only way I was able to do this was to
include a class named "*" inside a Big Package,
and then add a dependency between my class and
the "*" class...
  But then when I extend one of the awt classes,
I also get the :

import java.awt.<class>;

 and the .java file is generated. Is there a better
way to include the "import java.awt.*" without these
problems?

Thanks a lot

[Dia2code-general] Inherhitance type and constant property of UML methods

[Matthieu S. <ma...@ne...>]

I wrote a patch for dia to support abstract, virtual, final and constant properties for UML - Class operations, so i'm propagating it into dia2code, since I use it. The patch also contains code to output to C++.
I also rewrote the nextObject() function which had a FIXME. Code is clearer, and a bit tested (50 classes diagram).
Bye.

Some time ago someone volunteered to do it. Later, another guy sent me an 
empty atttachment, supposedly with a Perl code generator.  I lost his mail so 
I could not reply to him.  :-(

Everybody is welcome to contribute. ;-)

[Dia2code-general] Perl output functionality

[Dana M . D. <da...@re...>]

I looked through the archives of this list and didn't notice any messages
about future support of Perl, nor did I see any mention of it inside of the
distribution.  Will Perl be supported by this product in the near future?
My team does a great deal of Perl object oriented programming, and some
of us know UML, as modeled in dia.  I am very excited by this program overa=
ll!

Cheers.

I forgot to scan the next element of the list :-(.  Dia2Code gets caught in 
an infinite loop while generating java code and the imported class has a 
package hierarchy deeper than 1.

You can find the patch attached here.  

Thanks for pointing it out.  Regards,

[Dia2code-general] Question re nested packages

[Matthew K. W. <ma...@ha...>]

I've got a dia class diagram which presently contains 3 classes, and shows
the fully qualified path (ie, nested packages) for them.

dia2code creates the first class just fine, and them fills up the HD on
the second one.

here's the command line I'm using:

dia2code -t java bouncingbet.java

Any clues?  Beside this, it looks like a great tool....

This is a very nice enhancement, thanks J=E9r=F4me.  I'll put it on the p=

list and integrate it with the current code base.

[Dia2code-general] Hello!

[<je...@ma...>]

Hello there,

I'm new to dia2code and I would first like to thank you all
for this great tool! It'll save me a *lot* of time maintaining
my UML/Java programs.

I've just installed the latest release on my Debian PPC and
made a quick change in the processing of the '-cl' argument.
It allows me now to use the '*' character in the class list
for range selection/exclusion. It's quite nice when working
on a huge model with lots of test suite classes or when
issuing a command like this one:

  dia2code -t java -v -cl _*,*$,java.* $@

It's just a two minutes hack on 'is_present()' in 'dia2code.c'
but it migth be useful for someone else on this list. The diff
file is attached to this post.

Later,
