Significant progress has been made since our last stable release (0.18). This includes the following new features:
- UML 1.4 - Enhanced extensibility features of UML 1.4 including multiple Stereotypes per ModelElement, Enumerations, and enhanced TaggedValue support.
- Sequence Diagrams - a completely new Sequence Diagram implementation
- AndroMDA compatibility - AndroMDA is an open source MDA tool which can generate code of a variety of types, up to entire applications, from the UML 1.4 models created by ArgoUML.
- Improved interoperability - this version reads and writes XMI files compatible with a wider variety of tools. UML 1.3 & 1.4 using XMI 1.0, 1.1, & 1.2 are read and UML 1.4/XMI 1.2 is written.
- JMI (JSR-40) support - A shiny new model subsystem using the NetBeans Model Data Repository (MDR) implementation of the Java Metadata Interface. While largely transparent to users, it will allow easier upgrades to later versions of UML.
- Quality - Over 400 bugs have been fixed for this release.
- Visual enhancements - a fresh new splash screen and support for Java 5 look and feel
- Most functions now support multiple selection of modelelements.
- Drag and Drop from the explorer tree into the diagram and within the explorer tree.
