Re: problems generating code from dia 0.96 to 0.97

[Carlo Calderoni <calderoni carlo gmail com>]

Hi Ottavio
a quick and dirty workaround for getting version of dia in use,

could be (try in dia python console)

from subprocess import Popen, PIPE

diaVersionString = Popen("dia  --version", shell=True, stdout=PIPE).stdout.read().strip()

print diaVersionString

diaVersionString should contain something similar to this : "Dia version 0.97, compiled 17:24:55 Nov  8 2011"

It works perfectly on dia 0.96 . But when I try to run it in dia 0.97
c.connected is always empty.

Could you add another loop over n? e.g.

for co in n:
   if not co.type.name in ("UML - Association"):

I also have another question: suppose I want to make my python plugin
work both with dia 0.96 and 0.97. Is there a way to get the version of
dia in the plugin?

At a first glance, I didn't see any Python function returning a Dia version number. But you could simply
check the object type where the code differs

Steffen
