Getting a CMOF XMI file into Papyrus [message #1785623]

Hello,

I have the following XMI file that is based on CMOF: https://www.omg.org/spec/SBVR/20160601/SBVR-XMI-Metamodel.xml

I am trying to get it into the Eclipse modeling universe somehow (anyhow) so I can view/edit etc.

I have tried renaming it to a .uml file and also saving it as .uml from the UML Editor but that does not seem to move it over to the Eclipse UML format.

Is there something I can do with Papyrus?

My only option at this point seems to be to write a QVT transformation from CMOF to Eclipse UML but it seemed to me unlikely that I would have to do this and I could instead open or import a standard CMOF file with some Eclipse tool. But perhaps not.

I wanted to check here to make sure I am on the right track.

Regards,
Bruce

Hi

CMOF is supported by the Eclipse UML2 project but nobody uses it. IIRC the most recent fix four years ago was because I was still using the OMG UML 2.3 CMOF file for OCL PIvot autogeneration. https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=437716 The narrow issue was fixed but I moved to true UML 2.5 UML. Your problem is an unsupported version combination.

<xmi:XMI xmi:version="2.1" xmlns:xmi="http://schema.omg.org/spec/XMI/2.1" xmlns:cmof="http://schema.omg.org/spec/MOF/2.0/cmof.xml">

If you use /org.eclipse.uml2.uml.tests/src/org/eclipse/uml2/uml/bug/tests/Bug437977.cmof20 as a template and change the prolog to:

<xmi:XMI xmi:version="2.0" xmlns:xmi="http://schema.omg.org/spec/XMI/2.0" xmlns:cmof="http://schema.omg.org/spec/MOF/2.0/cmof.xml" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">

it loads as a *.cmof file allowing you to save as a *.uml file.
