How to save to .uml file using an older UML version? [message #1001207]

I'm using org.eclipse.uml2.uml 4.0.1 to create an UML model. The model is saved in a .uml file with xmlns:uml="http://www.eclipse.org/uml2/4.0.0/UML". I would like it to be saved with xmlns:uml="http://www.eclipse.org/uml2/3.0.0/UML".

My code for creating the resource currently looks like this:

Resource resource = UML302UMLResource.Factory.INSTANCE.createResource(uri);

And I save it with no options:

resource.save(null);

What do I have to do, to save my model with the XML Namespace of UML302UMLResource? Do I have to specify an option. If yes, which one is it?

Thanks

Hi

I presume your message has a typo because your request the current nsURI.

Your activities are possibly confused by
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=389542 which identifies
that on 4.0.1 createResource is broken for UML; use a more recent
maintenance version.

For the current version, I would expect to do

ResourceSet.createResource(URI)

I thought there was an MDT/UML2 enhancement Bugzilla open for previous
versions but I can't find it.

Anyway, the reality is that unless someone comes forward to fund
multi-version save it's unlikely to happen.

Once implemented, for a previous version I would expect to do

ResourceSet.createResource(URI, String)

where String is the required content type.

Regards

Thanks for your answer Ed. I meant xmlns:uml="http://www.eclipse.org/uml2/3.0.0/UML" as the xml namespace the I would like to have. I corrected this here in the forum. So as there is no easy workaround, I will fall back on using an older version of the UML API.
