Hi

If by USE you mean https://sourceforge.net/projects/useocl/ I suggest you read the USE documentation.

Since USE is for UML, you might try the Ecore2UML menu entry.

For OCL aspects ask what you want to know more precisely on the OCL newsgroup.

I installed Ecore tools. However, I cannot see Ecore2UML menu entry when I right clicked on .ecore file.

Hi

It's in the Sample Ecore Editor toolbar menu.

You need to select an EPackage to avoid the "Convert to UML model..." being greyed out.

Unfortunately, USE just know its format such the bellow code and doesn't support the uml.

model Person

class Person
attributes
  name : String
  age : Integer
end

association Family between
  Person[1] role father
  Person[1] role mother
  Person[*] role child
end
