I am using the latest CVS version of umbrello as of 06/15/04.

Somehow I ended up with a null string ("") in a floatingtext object within a component view in one of my XMI files. (Not sure if it came from some text that I deleted, or not, but it was in there.) Below is a XMI file fragment that shows this. When I have this null string, the load of the XMI file fails with the following warnings:

umbrello: WARNING: failed umlview load on widgets
umbrello: WARNING: failed load on viewdata loadfromXMI
umbrello: WARNING: failed load on diagrams

All the diagrams are then hosed. I had to edit the code to put some extra print statements in to find this guy. Can the error messages be made a little more explanitory? For instance, give the line number and tag name of the failed item. That would have pointed me to the problem.  Also, in a case like this where the diagrams are hosed, shouldn't that be an error not just a warning? (The XMI file failed to load properly, that is an error in my book.)

Here is the XMI fragment
