Export/Import using XML Tab
Posted: 08 Mar 2012, 11:30
Hi,
I was successful in importing data from a flat (.csv) file using the scripts you sent me last week. Thanks for that.
Currently I try to import/export Data from essential metamodel using the XML Tab an have following problems:
We think of an import of business Objects (like "Customer", "Contract", "Adress" from out UML Modelling Tool (Sprax Enterprise Architect) into Essential. So we have to create new instances and relations according to the xml schema.
1.) I am not able to create an XML Schema (xsd) file for the metamodell - but I think I would need it for mapping the XML output of our UML Modelling Tool to Proteges XML Import Structure
2.) I also tried to export Instance Data using the XML Tab, but it does not work as described at the http://protegewiki.stanford.edu/wiki/XML_Tab.
It is not possible to select certain Instances to be exported as described in the protegewiki, I am only able to export the entire instance data.
How do you usually deal with importing Data from external tools like UML into Essential project? Do you use the XML Tab?
Thanks for your help
Wolfgang
