Have found the jar file for ditaa and followed the instructions.  However,
when I try to execute the code using "C-c C-c" I get

Evaluation of this ditaa code block is disabled.

You enable ditaa ind variable org-babel-load-languages. Normally I do
C-c C-c if I wish to export single block and I do it on the block or
line end_src. But that is only for testing, I am using ditaa and
plantuml to export PDF files with the output.

From ditaa examples:
