A URL does not seem to be recognized as a URL - it seems to be recognized as text.

Question

We installed PlantUML as a plug-in to Eclipse, then we installed Graphviz separately.  When you run this

@startuml

testdot

@enduml

it says everything is OK.  But if you have a UML line like

Bob -> Alice : foo1 [[http://www.google.com]], the http://www.google.com does not show up in blue, it looks like a text extension of the comment "foo1".  Did we install PlantUML and Graphviz wrong?

Answer 1

Which version of PlantUML are you using ?

You can check it with:

@startuml
version
@enduml

There have been some slight changes about URL in PlantUML, so you should upgrade to the last one, your example seems to work fine with it.
