Title: Class Model import into Systems Architect
Post by: andyb789 on November 21, 2011, 07:56:44 pm

The architecture team I am working with already use IBM Systems Architect. I'm proposing the use of EA for the Business Analysts but I cannot get the XMI import to work either way between SA and EA.

I'm exporting one package from EA containing 5 classes (as a test) and attempting to import this into SA.

When attempting to import into SA I get the message:

Only one top level element is allowed in an XML Document.

Has anyone had this working (using the latest versions of SA and EA)

Thanks..Andy

What version of SA are you importing the EA XMI to?
The reason I'm asking is because prior to 10.4 XMI was an afterthought in SA and a previous employer spent a lot of money to enable import of Rational model into SA. The SA XMI export was also not up to scratch. I dont know what the situation is like right now but if I may advice you; forget SA as it has no future.
