Subject: UML sheet incomplete?
Date: Fri, 10 Jan 2003 17:31:19 -0500
I'm working through Design Patterns Java Workbook
(http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0201743973/christophernelso) and
using an old-ish build of Dia 0.9 to do some of the UML problems.
I'm no UML expert but looking at the book's appendix that gives a whirlwind
tour, I find I can't complete the second figure with Dia. The UML sheet
seems to be missing the class connection that has a small diamond at one end
and nothing at the other. Am I missing something?
And I'm distressed to report that the arrow heads on Association just don't
point the right way. I attach an Association to a class and move the
segments of the association around and end up with:
+-----------+ +-----------+
| \|_________| |
| /| | |
| | | |
+-----------+ +-----------+
That is, the arrow head is inside the object and pointing out. Or sometimes
I get:
+-----------+ +-----------+
| \|/________| |
| | | |
| | | |
+-----------+ +-----------+
With the arrow pointing along the side of the object. Nothing I can do
fixes this and I have to delete the association and recreate it. Am I doing
something wrong or is this broken?
TIA.
Chris
