One way is to add the Label as a child to the connection and pass a
ConnectionLocator as the constraint. For example, if you wanted your
Label in the midpoint of the connection:
Figure rect1 = new RectangleFigure();
rect1.setBounds(new Rectangle(0,0,50,50));
Figure rect2 = new RectangleFigure();
rect2.setBounds(new Rectangle(500,500,50,50));
fig.add(rect1);
fig.add(rect2);
PolylineConnection c = new PolylineConnection();
c.setSourceAnchor(new ChopboxAnchor(rect1));
c.setTargetAnchor(new ChopboxAnchor(rect2));
fig.add(c);
Label label = new Label("MidPoint");
MidpointLocator ml = new MidpointLocator(c,0);
c.add(label,ml);
For the case of the multiplicity indicator, I would do it the same way
but use a ConnectionEndPointLocator:
Label endLabel = new Label("EndPoint");
ConnectionEndpointLocator ce = new ConnectionEndpointLocator(c,true);
c.add(endLabel,ce);
