Re: Re: Python plug-in -- UML: how to access the association end?

[georges Louis <georges louis univ-lr fr>]

Thanks for your answer.

But I still don't get what I am looking for.

I installed "export-object.py" and ran it on my UML diagram : it does 
not export the multiplicities and roles of UML associations.

Here is the XML description of an UML association, extracted from the 
(uncompressed :-) .dia file :

    1        <dia:object type="UML - Association" version="1" id="O2">
    2          <dia:attribute name="obj_pos"> ... </dia:attribute>
    3          <dia:attribute name="obj_bb"> ... </dia:attribute>
    4          <dia:attribute name="orth_points"> ... </dia:attribute>
    5          <dia:attribute name="orth_orient"> ... </dia:attribute>
    6          <dia:attribute name="autorouting"> ... </dia:attribute>
    7          <dia:attribute name="name">
    8            <dia:string>#XX#</dia:string>
    9          </dia:attribute>
   10          <dia:attribute name="direction"> ... </dia:attribute>
   11          <dia:attribute name="ends">
   12            <dia:composite>
   13              <dia:attribute name="role">
   14                <dia:string>#fff#</dia:string>
   15              </dia:attribute>
   16              <dia:attribute name="multiplicity">
   17                <dia:string>#1..*#</dia:string>
   18              </dia:attribute>
   19              <dia:attribute name="arrow"> ... </dia:attribute>
   20              <dia:attribute name="aggregate"> ... </dia:attribute>
   21              <dia:attribute name="visibility"> ... </dia:attribute>
   22            </dia:composite>
   23            <dia:composite>
   24              <dia:attribute name="role">
   25                <dia:string>#sss#</dia:string>
   26              </dia:attribute>
   27              <dia:attribute name="multiplicity">
   28                <dia:string>#0..1#</dia:string>
   29              </dia:attribute>
   30              <dia:attribute name="arrow"> ... </dia:attribute>
   31              <dia:attribute name="aggregate"> ... </dia:attribute>
   32              <dia:attribute name="visibility"> ... </dia:attribute>
   33            </dia:composite>
   34          </dia:attribute>
   35          <dia:connections>
   36            <dia:connection handle="0" to="O0" connection="10"/>
   37            <dia:connection handle="1" to="O1" connection="10"/>
   38          </dia:connections>
   39        </dia:object>

I am trying to access the "ends" at line 11, and even more specifically 
the multiplicities (16 and 27)
and the roles (13 and 23). The .diapyo file does not show these. All my 
attempts at getting them from
python failed. What is the secret magic formula?

Thanks

Georges
