bug reporduce example.

steps to reproduce:

1. create class daigram
2. create class "super"
3. crate class "derived"
4. make generalization assotiation (Implements) between "super" and derived.
5. delete association.
6. generate all code (C++)

result:
in the "derived.h":  class derived_class : public superclass 

if repeat steps 4, 5 few times:
in the "derived.h":  class derived_class : public superclass, public superclass // two assotiations

The reason for this is that the related UMLAssociation has not been removed from the document. In AssociationWidget::cleanup() I found the following comment: 
     ....
     if (m_umlObject && m_umlObject->baseType() == UMLObject::ot_Association) {
        /*
           We do not remove the UMLAssociation from the document.
           Why? - Well, for example we might be in the middle of
           a cut/paste. If the UMLAssociation is removed by the cut
           then upon pasteing we have a problem.
           This is not quite clean yet - there should be a way to
           explicitly delete a UMLAssociation.  The Right Thing would
           be to have a ListView representation for UMLAssociation.
        `
                IF we are cut n pasting, why are we handling this association as a pointer?
                We should be using the XMI representation for a cut and paste. This
                allows us to be clean here, AND a choice of recreating the object
                w/ same id IF its a "cut", or a new object if its a "copy" operation
                (in which case we wouldnt be here, in cleanup()).
         */
        setUMLAssociation(0);
    }
