#28 sequence diagram: call from activation box to itself = crash
in the sequence diagram editor. if you have a object lifeline with an activation box on it and you try to draw a call arrow from the box to itself it will crash violet uml.
this error is reproducable. it has happened every time i've tried it and on multiple systems.
this is something that can happen inadvertently if you try and move an activation box and don't realize that you still have the call arrow selected.

a little clarification. this error manifests itself in the Java webstart version of Violet at http://alexdp.free.fr/violetumleditor/demo/violet.jnlp
it DOES NOT show up when you run the code from the CVS. I just downloaded the code from CVS and tried to see if I could find where the bug was. My guess it that the web start version of Violet is based on something slightly older.
