Is it possible to get export from Papyrus into XML format?
If possible then how can we do it.
If direct XML export is not possible then, Is there a way to convert UML format into XML format?

Thanks in advance.

Papyrus uses XML Metadata Interchange (https://www.omg.org/spec/XMI/2.5.1/About-XMI/) as default file format for UML models. XMI includes an XML Schema (https://www.w3.org/XML/Schema).
Consequently, yes it is possible. You do not even require an explicit export. You just have to read the .uml-files.

Hi Carsten Pitz,

Thanks for your reply. Actually I have built some model in Papyrus and now I want to import it in another tool which only supports XML format. But export from Papyrus is UML format so please guide me how I can get export from Papyrus in Xml fromat.

HI

UML is a form of XML. Just the same as French is a form of human language. If it helps with tooling change the file extension from *.uml to *.xml.

What you probably meant to ask was how do you convert Papyrus's Eclipse UML 2.5 format XML file to the variant of UML used by your tool. Not knowing what your tool requires, it is hard to tell, but Eclipse UML is sufficiently common that many tools provide an import capability.

Regards
