Overview

JADE supports XML Metadata Interchange (XMI), specifically XMI 2.1 as generated by the Sparx Systems Enterprise Architect (EA) tool.

XMI is an Object Management Group (OMG) standard for exchanging metadata information using Extensible Markup Language (XML).

XMI support is provided by the XMI Import command in the JADE development environment File menu, which accesses the Extract Schema dialog that enables you to select the name and location of the XMI file to extract and the location of the output files. This generates schema files from an XMI file (XMI 2.1 from the EA tool).
