UML2 Import XMI 2.1 file

I am getting:
“The resource selected for import is invalid. Please select a valid XMI 2.1 file.”

I have tried both with a file generated by an external tool and a file generated within MyEclipse.

Example file created in MyEclipse:

<?xml version=”1.0″ encoding=”UTF-8″?>
<uml:Model xmi:version=”2.1″ xmlns:xmi=”http://schema.omg.org/spec/XMI/2.1&#8243; xmlns:uml=”http://www.eclipse.org/uml2/3.0.0/UML&#8221; xmi:id=”_qb8akM37EdqwVrslYOdUDA” name=”test1″>
<packagedElement xmi:type=”uml:Class” xmi:id=”_dXVNwFhkEd-WDZk3pa04GA” name=”MarcClass”/>
</uml:Model>

Is there a special project type that I need to import into?

Hi mlafleur,

It is not reproducible at my end. Can you try the steps given below:

1) Create a web project.
2) Create an UML2 diagram and add a Class with name “SamClass”.
3) Right click on the project and select “Export–>UML2–>XMI 2.1 (MyEclipse)” and click “Next” button.
4) Give the destination and select the .uml and click “Finish” button.
5) Now create another web project and try to import the XMI file into the new web project.

Please let me know.

Thanks,
Chakri Vedula.

Okay, apparently the file needs to have a .xmi extension for it to work. Thanks.
