Author Topic: Question on XMI transfer between two models (Read 3905 times)

I transferred a class diagram from a model created elsewhere. The classes were all transferred but only four of eleven associations were transferred. Colours, icons etc., were fine. Can anyone suggest a reason? :-/

John,

You never export diagrams, but always packages (that might contain diagrams as well)
So all classes you want to transfer should be defined in the packages you export.
If some classes are defined in other packages (that are not exported) you might encounter these kind of issues.

Yes, of course that's exactly how I did it. I should have been morte specific. Question still exists though. They apparently used xmi1.1 and I used xmi2.1 but I've just transferred again with 1.1 - same result!?

Thank you Geert transferred again with all objects in the same package and it works! However having 2k classes it's a right royal pain in the posterior to have to move the objects and then re-file them for a transfer as well as a report.

Thanks again, nice weekend, John
