UML2MOF Tool and mdr with Netbeans 5.0

[Nina Moebius]

Hi All,

I have two questions:

1) I am trying to convert a uml model into a mof model. To generate my
UML model I use Poseidon For UML CE 4.0.1 with the template given on
your website (http://mdr.netbeans.org/uml2mof/templates.html). By using
the UML2MOF tool with the xmi file created by Poseidon I get the
following error: "Namespace cannot be resolved: UML2". Do you know a
tool I can use to generate a xmi file that can be processed by the
UML2MOF tool?

2) I downloaded the current version of Netbeans. As far as I know the
mdr is integrated into Netbeans 5.0? How can I use the FreeStyle Browser
and the MDR Explorer?

Thanks for your help,
Nina

You can use ArgoUML (version 0.20 at minimum), it should work since from
this version it use the MDR API to store UML 1.4 models. It is
downloadable from http://argouml.tigris.org/

You can use the xslt script. It works for me.
I was not able to find again  the original message on user list where
the original author John V. Sichi announced the script, but you can find
it here:

http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.java.netbeans.modules.mdr.user/3470


You can processs by the script (like "xsltproc deleteUmlDiagrams.xsl
MMMM.xmi > MMMM_nouml2.xmi")
your xmi file (even with graphics information) to get a real xmi file,
which can be read by UML2MOF tool.
