The Udm<br>installation comes with a utility called UdmCopy that can convert a GME<br>model into the equivalent XML digestable by Udm. Your interpreter will<br>need to include the Udm-generated code, and either include the generated<br>xsd file in your distribution or else compile it into the code (see the Udm<br>command-line options). Instead of all of the COM infrastructure that you<br>used to integrate your interpreter code into GME, you can simply write a<br>main function that loads the specified model file and invokes your logic.<br> The only tricks are to link against the UDM library, and to make sure you<br>commit model changes before closing. UdmCopy and Udm should both provide<br>command-line help when run from the prompt.<br><br>Is that what you're after?<br><br>-Joe<br><br><br>On Wed, Dec 12, 2012 at 6:26 AM, Ray, Sumit (US SSA) <<br><a href="mailto:sumit.ray@baesystems.com">sumit.ray@baesystems.com</a>> wrote:<o:p></o:p></p></div><p class=MsoNormal>> Hi,****<br>><br>> ** **<o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal>><br>> I have written UDM based C++ interpreters that are DLLs.
