UML Model and Diagram definition, where? – XMI has them, Standards not? -
so, i’ve been looking through uml 2.3 infrastructure, uml 2.3 superstructure, mof 2.0 , xmi 2.11 standards in search of specification , definition of models , diagrams.
i aware models , diagrams , (diagrams show view on model), seeing them in xmi file exported visual paradigm , analysing got bit confused.
throughout standards mentioned above specification mentions diagrams , models corresponding meanings, not find defined, nor, important part, how comes in uml metamodel.
xmi mentioned above has following structure (heavily pruned):
<xmi:xmi xmi:version="2.1" …> <uml:model /> <uml:diagram /> </xmi:xmi>
so not find definitions on model , diagram, not find out how many model elements allowed/possible , content may have. same diagrams, although know can 0..*
.
the easiest way check model use eclipseuml2 editor. not graphical uml tree can create elements directly on xmi model. xmi 2.1 corresponding uml 2.3 , clean. xmi used rsa ibm, topcased, papyrus @ project level , can have multiple projects merge omondo. cool !!
