Can support export to Rose Format or other Format

[MaxChou]

I download the version of 3.51.617, at this time of day I haven't found out how to export the .EAP file to another Format. (eg: Rost's format or another)

I hope at the new version in future can do it well !!!

Hi Max,

It is possible to transfer data from EA to Rose! Search the forum for XMI (XML model interchange) or XML export / import.

The features above will generate XML which contains your model. This XML can be read by Rose (using Unisys plugin) to build up the model again, but now in Rose.

I asked this before but did not get an answer:

The Rose export does not seem to work very well. First of all, if you mark the "Rose format" option in XMI export, Rose can not read it at all, with the Unisys add-on. If you turn it off, then most objects go in, but no sequence diagrams or activity diagrams.

Any solutions?

Hello,

I had similar problems when exporting from EA to import to Rose. However, after a lucky attempt I managed to resolve a combination of options when exporting in EA so that the import in Rose works (not well, but still does most of the things - enough for my requirements). The export options were:
-Export diagrams: checked
-XMI 1.0: checked
-Unisys/Rose Format: NOT checked
-Use DTD: NOT checked

I tried this with EA 4.00.720 and Rose 2003.06.12 with Unisys UML 1.3 XMI Add-In (download the plug-in, found from the net).

It's weird that the Unisys/Rose Format option in EA must not be selected. Not too easy to find out!
