A Few Items

[fwoolz]

Hello all,

Here are a few things I've noticed regarding EA 4.1 build 739:

Problems with Association Classes:

1.      Synchronizing a class that was linked to an association causes the association link to disappear; however, the class, while no longer linked, cannot be re-linked to the association since the association still thinks it is linked!
2.      After associating a class to an unnamed link, the link cannot be named (the field is grayed out) until a stereotype is assigned to the link.  After naming, the stereotype can be deleted.

Problems with Ports:

1.      When zoomed out, attempting to move a port sometimes causes the port to move around the periphery of an object in the opposite direction from that intended.  In some cases, the port moves off of the object it is embedded in.
2.      Connections between ports do not appear in RTF documentation.
3.      Port stereotypes do not appear in RTF documentation.
4.      Port symbols, depending on placement, can obscure text within a compartment in an object.
5.      Port symbols do not appear to align with gridmarks.
6.      Ports display resize handles but do not appear to be resizable.

Problems with Code Synch/Gen

1.      C++ code handling does not recognize notation for bitfields.  Use of bitfield notation results in premature termination of code import.
2.      Comments at the end of a line of code are associated with the following line of code.

Cheers,
