Jack,

 

TBC’s import works with UML2 as implemented in EMF (as described here 
http://wiki.eclipse.org/MDT-UML). How could we be more clear about this than we 
currently are in the Help file?

 

As far as I could tell, Enterprise Architect can import this format, but not 
export it. According to EA while they now export UML2 format, this output 
doesn’t work in Eclipse because “the Eclipse implementation of the UML2 
metamodel differs in some places from EA’s implementation”. Thus, when a tool 
has UML2 output, it doesn’t mean that it can be used in Eclipse or that it is 
interchangeable with another tool’s UML2 input/output.

 

By googling, I found this:

https://nirmalsasidharan.wordpress.com/tag/enterprise-architect/ and this 
http://blog.sparxsystems.eu/2012/11/export-your-ea-models-for-eclipse/ 

 

Both are a bit dated and I don’t know if they will work, but you could give it 
a try.

 

Irene

Subject: [topbraid-users] Trying to import EA UML into TBC - No go

 

I have a set of UML models created in Enterprise Architect that I'd like to 
import into TBC. I have read the various statements here and in the help files, 
etc. I have tried exporting from EA to most of its possible file types using 
'export model to XMI'. I tried 'export type' XMI 2.1 as well as UML 2.4.1 (XMI 
2.4.1), Ecore, UML 2.0 (XMI 2.1), and MOF 1.4 (XMI 1.2). The question I have 
is: how do I convert the XMI file into the UML format TBC requires to perform 
the import. The documentation doesn't spell this out at least as far as I have 
been able to tell so far.
