Yeah sure, I can set up the Maven stuff for the uml2mof tool.

Hello Chad, after last night's success with metamodels, I think we should do a little integration work to make our toolset powerful enough. What we need to do is: * A Maven plug-in that wraps the MDR ant task. * Replace the ant build.xml with a Maven build script inside the metamodel prototype. * Replace the MDR jars by our patched version to be able to use modularized models in MagicDraw. * Export the UML profile for MOF from the XML Demo metamodel to make it reusable. Could you help me with the Maven stuff? You know much more about Maven than I do. I'll do all the model stuff. Then, we can do a pretty cool thing: We can produce metamodels in UML as we like and make them reusable as MagicDraw modules as well. That way, we can reference them from *metafacade* models that we create for the metamodels. Not to be confused: the *metafacade model* references the *metamodel* module. :-) There is nothing more delicious than a good software architecture! (At least, there are only very few things of that kind...) ;-) The next steps towards a real-world environment could be: * Design a small metamodel for 3GL classes. * Design a metafacade model for that metamodel. * Write a template for a Java class that uses those metafacades. * Write a model transfo from UML to 3GL. * Integrate and test the generation of Java classes. Then, we can proceed with more metamodels for persistence, web frontends, application structures, etc. Hey, we're fast, aren't we? Cheers...
