SPECIFICATIONS
Tool: Tigris / ArgoUML version 0.10 to 0.24 via UML XMI File
See http://argouml.tigris.org/
Metadata: [Object Modeling] Data Store (Object Model UML Class Diagrams)
Component: OmgUmlXmiArgoUml version 11.2.0

OVERVIEW
This bridge imports data models from XMI (XML Metadata Interchange format) files with objects, attributes, inheritance, types, relationships and diagrams. The actual standard specifications provided by the OMB are often extended for propietary reasons by the source tool vendor, and in many cases the metadata captured is not everything represented in the file. A high-level description of the metadata coverage is provided in the LIMITATIONS.

REQUIREMENTS
To generate an XMI file from Tigris Argo UML uses XMI as its native format. Use the "Save As" entry in the "File" menu to generate the file.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
n/a

LIMITATIONS
Refer to the current general known limitations at MIMB Known Limitations or bundled in Documentation/ReadMe/MIMBKnownLimitations.html

If you are using ArgoUML version 0.9, you will need to extract the files from the .zargo archive file.

SUPPORT
Provide a troubleshooting package with debug log. Debug log can be set in the UI or in conf/conf.properties with MIR_LOG_LEVEL=6


Bridge Parameters

Parameter Name Description Type Values Default Scope
File Imports an XML file compliant to the Object Management Group (OMG) Unified Modeling Language (UML) XML Metadata Interchange (XMI) file format. There are multiple versions of the UML metamodel and XMI format, therefore make sure you identify the exact OMG UML XMI version produced by your source tool. FILE *.argo   Mandatory
