Hi,

Is it possible to use the older UML version with newer EMF version?
E.g. UML 2.0.4 with EMF 2.4.2 (UML 2.0.4 was built with EMF 2.2.3)

Thanks,
Martynas

Hi Martynas,

Mixing and matching UML2 and EMF versions is not a good idea in general.
UML2 has very strict version range restrictions on dependencies in EMF. In
your particular case, I think you may be safe since I don't believe that
UML2 makes use of incompatible API but you would have to test this out to
make certain.

Cheers,
- James.
