Re: dia MYSQL suggestion
UML is (necessarily) incomplete. But I think you can handle the data
already:
In type field, use the SQL type (or something which you can translate
to that)
In the value field, give the default value, plus indication of
NULL/NOT NULL and additional data as the "property string": From UML
User Guide, pg 128:
origin:Point=(0,0) {not null, frozen}
Becomes:
name: origin
type: Point
value: (0,0) {not null, frozen}
KEY is non-OO and thus non-UML, but could be done as a private
pseudomethod, "KEY", whose arguments are the list of attributes
needed to form the key.

Subject: dia MYSQL suggestion
Hi!
I am using dia to draw physical entity relationship models of my
MYSQL
database. So I use the "UML class" object to create Tables and I
add
attributes to generate the columns of the Table.
At the moment the "attribute data" allows to specify attribute
name,
type and value. To properly describe the MYSQL database tables I
would need five "attribute data" fields, since in MYSQL every field
is
described by field name, type (int, char,etc) , NULL (if it can be
empty), Key , Default value and Extra info. Would it be possible to
create this kind of object?
Generalizing this one could imagine a table object, which the user
could define to be of N x M size, where M is the number of
attribute
data fields. And every data field could be named separately
greetings,
andreas

dia 0.86 and libxml2-2.2.10 not working together?
Hello. Dia 0.86 does not appear to support the latest version of libxml (2.2.10). Using 2.2.0 version is fine. The trouble is that, when saving a diagram, the following message is issued: xmlNewGlobalNs() deprecated function reached but the file is -almost- correctly saved. Then, when you re-open the file, dia does not recognize it. In fact, the 2nd line of the file is only "diagram", when dia expects: diagram xmlns:dia="http://www.lysator.liu.se/~alla/dia/"" Any patch available (or a new version coming soon) ?

UML fonts problems (general)
Hi, I just installed Dia and have a serious problem. When I create a new project and drop class object on it I get a couple of warnings saying: -warning no x font for helvetica-bold-oblique found, using fixed instead -warning no x font for helvetica-bold found, using fixed instead -warning no x font for courier-oblique found, using fixed instead -warning no x font for courier found, using fixed instead And afterwards every class diagram which I create doesn't scale almost at all to the font and the diagrams look something like: -whate |ver: Integ |er -somet |hing_else:| Integer I know it might it a little bit off topic, but I didn't know where to ask and I really need Dia to work. Could someone please help me? What can I do? Thank you. zack
