This contains both the ISO 20022 profile (stereotypes) and the ISO 20022 type library. This morning, I tried this, using the ISO 20022:2009 draft profile as the example. This means that many UML tools can import and export Eclipse ".uml" and/or ".uml2" files, so the Eclipse format was recently recommended to me as a better way (than XMI hacking) for moving model between different UML tools. While the Eclipse implementation doesn't have the same degree of development and features as the commercial tools (although making great strides), the commercial vendors can't ignore it because so many organisations use Eclipse now as their primary Java IDE. However, the "300lb Gorilla" for many vendors is Eclipse, which has its own built-in UML editor. The interoperability between UML tools is vastly less than, for example, the interoperability between OpenOffice and MS Office. It really holds back UML tools we live in a world where people now expect interoperability. Unfortunately, each UML tool vendor has found a different, incompatible way of using XMI, it seems. However, interoperability between UML file formats is woeful, even though there is a common XML format for UML, called XMI. I like UML for modelling, in spite of it being too focussed on object-oriented design.
