BOUML full changelog

August 15 2017

When you edited a relation or attribute declared static this keyword wasn't produced in the C++ preview, fixed
(see le mot clé static n'apparait pas en c++).

Add extra artifact definitions, there are for the artifacts what the extra class members are for the classes, so they allow the artifacts to generate non class definitions/declarations around the classes.
In the tree of elements the extra artifact definitions are children of the artifacts and are always associated to them. The dialog of an artifact allows to change the order of the generation of the extra artifact definitions among the classes, but you cannot unassociate them.
(see PHP Roundtrip).

Change a little the dialog reverse/roundtrip settings to separate the filtering and extension parts for clarity reasons.

When moving a package or other container in a diagram some line breaks placed into the container wasn't moved, there are moved now. (see Line breaks will not be moved when moving packages).
Allow to add additional header and source extensions for the C++ reverse/roundtrip through Edit reverse/roundtrip settings. (see Multiple C++ header file extensions).
C++ Reverse 5.2
C++ Roundtrip 5.2

When you saved the content of the trace window through the button Save the result was wrong except if you previously closed it then reopenned it, fixed
Corrected some typos in the english version
C++ Reverse 5.1.8
C++ Roundtrip 5.1.7

Html documentation Generator 6.3.1:
The option -tag wasn't taken into account in all cases, fixed (see HTML Doc generator , new option, accented characters, french).

Since the release 6.11 when you just created a project and create a diagram and add elements these ones do not appears. This problem disapears when you change the format (IsoA4 by default) or save then reload the project. Fixed

The position of a stereotype/label of a relation/transition/flow could not be updated when you changed the geometry, fixed
Modify the drawing of the grid in diagrams, using cross rather than lines, to be less obtrusive.

It is now possible to specify a custom size for the diagrams, between 400 and 40000 for the width and the height (see Custom paper size)
XMI2 Export 5.1. The encoding (UTF8 or Latin1/ISO-8859-1) was wrongly managed, fixed
Html documentation Generator 6.3. It is now possible to specify if the export is done in UTF8 or Latin1/ISO-8859-1. After the optional options -flat and -avg you can now use the option -utf8 or -latin1 to specify the encoding, without the option the encoding is asked. The encoding is only managed by the C++ version of the Html generator.
Because the format of the BOUML files is changed, the previous releases of BOUML cannot read a project saved with this version. Obviously this release is able to read the projects made by previous releases of BOUML.

For a user of Bouml under Windows 10 the buttons browse do nothing in case they apply on a directory, it is the case for instance in the tab Directory of the dialog to set the generation settings. I cannot understand why for that user QFileDialog::getExistingDirectory does not work in the default mode using the native dialog (here the one of Windows 10). To bypass that problem and be able to choose to use the Qt dialog rather than the native dialog, a new option is added in the environment, see Directory dialog in the dialog of the environment, called through the entry Set environment of the global menu Miscellaneous. Recall, the environment options are associated to the users, and saved in their .boumlrc file, they are not saved into the project files.
In case you set the font size to a high value through the entry Font size of the global menu Miscellaneous, in some tables like for the dialog of the tools settings the cells could be too small to write the characters or icons correctly

The menu of a class stereotyped table in a class diagram was wrong, fixed. (see Context menu in diagrams)

When Php is the alone language set through the list in the global menu Languages and you add a new parameter to an operation entering its name but not its type, the keyword ${v} was inserted two times for the new parameter in the default definition, fixed. This bug was introduced in the release 6.0. (see PHP function)
