import XMI 2.1 into EA sans notes

[John Castleberry]

EA uses special EA extensions to XMI 2.1 for notes on model elements.  Would like import models from other sources that have content in the notes field (for classes and associations).  Anybody know if EA can import them w/o using special EA XMI extensions?  If so, what's the XML structure or a good example?

Don't know, and not sure.

But in the meantime perhaps a relatively simple XSLT transform between the XMI export from the foreign tool and the EA import would do the trick.

EA will let you set up a transform on export. Unfortunately there is no corresponding mechanism on import (that I know of).

That bad thing about the EA import/export is that the logging is poor/little/opaque.  Looking though it, it doesn't have much more information than a   if it worked, and a   if it didn't.

Ooh well.
