[cosmic-users] possibilities to import UML diagrams

[Sumant Tambe]

Hi Friedhelm,

I am not sure I understand what you want to do. CoSMIC is a domain 
specific modeling tool and the models it works on are DSMs and not UML 
models. So I think a UML model can't be imported easily without some 
serious transformations on it. DSMLs of CoSMIC are developed using 
MetaGME, which is close to UML. Your UML models (class diagrams) may be 
imported as a metamodel with some transformations on it but that will 
give rise to a new DSML, which won't be a part of CoSMIC. Which DSML in 
CoSMIC do you think is useful for you? PICML, CQML, DQML, POSAML are the 
major ones.

I hope my explanation is not confusing. Let us know if you have more 
questions.

Thanks,

Sumant.
