Class UmlBaseItem

Base class of all the classes representing browser's objects.
In the API all for each 'system' class exists a 'user' class
under your responsability which inherits the 'system' class.
You do not have to change the 'system' classes, place your
attributes and operations in the corresponding 'user' classes :
all the instances made by the 'system' classes are instance of
the corresponding 'user' classes.
You must never create or delete yourself a class of the API,
use the Create operation defined in the 'system' classes.
To not allow you to access to the 'system' attributes or to
call 'system' internal operations even by error, the 'system' internal
parts are declared 'private' rather than 'public' or 'protected'.

without children. The item is also selected in the browser, so
set_ChildrenVisible(childrenVisible()) is the right way to select the item
in the browser.

object, the string 'v' is modified which the associated value
and TRUE is returned, else returns FALSE.
In Java return the value associated with the key specified by 'k'
for the current object, null in case the property doesn't
exist.
These properties may be edited through the object dialog last tab
named 'user'

Declaration :

- Uml : + properties() : string
- C++ : public: const QDict<QCString> properties()
- Java : public Hashtable properties()

Operation moveAfter

If the parameter is null, move the current item to be
the first child of its parent. Else the current item and
the parameter must have the same parent, the current item
is moved to be just after the parameter.
On error return FALSE in C++, produce a RuntimeException in Java

Declaration :

- Uml : + moveAfter(in x : UmlItem) : bool, exceptions : RuntimeException
- C++ : public: bool moveAfter(const UmlItem * x)

keyword '

Declaration :

- Uml : + supportFile() : string
- C++ : public: QCString supportFile()
- Java : public String supportFile()

Operation isWritable

read-only.

Declaration :

- Uml : + isWritable() : bool

UmlOperation (their bodies are not taken into account) , UmlClass
and UmlComponents.

Declaration :

- Uml : + referencedBy() : UmlItem
- C++ : public: const QVector<UmlItem> referencedBy()

return a constant identifier, it is unique within a given

of a component diagram)

Declaration :

Operation unload

to unload the object to free memory, it will be reloaded automatically
