XMI Import Associations

When importing UML 1.4 the associations are created but are not linked to the classes they belong to. I can supply an example XMI file if needed.

RE: XMI Import Associations

I'll check it out. If you send me some example by e-mail, it would be better.

Crashes on Win7 64bit

I wanted to try this tool out but both the Zip package and the installer crashed at the start up -- the logo shows up and the program immediately crashes. Thanks for the fix.

RE: Crashes on Win7 64bit

I apologize for this problem. New version will be officially released very soon.

Copy-paste not working in linux

Using opensuse 11.4, gnome 2.32.1 and mono 2.8.2. It's not possible to copy-paste objects, not with hot keys nor menu commands. This works perfectly in windows though...

Dusan Rodina - softwareideas.net 10 July 2011 8:26:55

RE: Copy-paste not working in linux

It seems to be a problem of mono implementation. However, I will try to fix it or create some workaround on SIM side.

RE: RE: RE: I can not download SIM

Maybe some very short connection failure at webhosting/internet provider.

SIM is also available in some mirrors, for example: http://download.cnet.com/Software-Ideas-Modeler-Portable/3000-2383_4-75322007.html?tag=rb_content;main

corrupted file or broken load routine

I encountered a problem which leads to SIM not being able to load my file anymore. I was adding two sequence diagrams and a state diagram. While doing that nothing special happened. Saving worked just fine. But after closing SIM I cannot reopen my file anymore. When invoking SIM with the file as a parameter I get the following exception:

========================================================

System.InvalidCastException: Cannot cast from source type to destination type.

at SoftwareIdeasModeler.Core.DiagramItems.UmlObjects.ConcreteUmlSequenceAction.UpdateBounds () [0x00000]

at SoftwareIdeasModeler.Core.DiagramItems.UmlObjects.ConcreteUmlSequenceAction.BindToEntities (SoftwareIdeasModeler.Core.Projecting.Diagram diagram) [0x00000]

at SoftwareIdeasModeler.Core.Projecting.Project.BindEntities () [0x00000]

at SoftwareIdeasModeler.ProjectXml.SimXmlReader.Load () [0x00000]

at SoftwareIdeasModeler.Program.RunMainWindow (System.Windows.Forms.Form splash) [0x00000]

========================================================

Clicking on "continue" results in closing the application.

When using the File->Open I get the same Exception just at SoftwareIdeasModeler.ProjectHelper.OpenProject (SoftwareIdeasModeler.MainForm mainForm, System.String filename) [0x00000] instead of SoftwareIdeasModeler.Program.RunMainWindow (System.Windows.Forms.Form splash) [0x00000].

Fortunately, I have versioned my diagrams, so only two diagrams are lost. As I said, I first encountered no problems. I even did two commits with the broken file.

Regards

Christian

RE: corrupted file or broken load routine

Nothing should be lost in your file. You can try this hot fix: http://www.softwareideas.net/SoftwareIdeasModeler.4.95HotFix.zip

It fixes also the problem with multi-object lifelines.

This hot fix will be included into the next official release, which I plan to publish this week.

RE: RE: corrupted file or broken load routine

Wow! You are great! It works just fine.

Thank you very much.

Multi-object on Sequence diagrams does not work pr

When drawing sequence diagrams, I found some problem with the "multi-object" property of lifelines. Setting multi-object to true (checking the checkbox) first seems to work, but when I click somewhere or just move the mouse the lifeline graphic gets broken and finally seems to grow beyond the visible area. That way this feature is unusable.

BTW: Normally the the names of the lifelines should be underlined in order to show that they are objects, not classes,
