I'm a java developer new with uml modeling. I wanna create a complete web application (backend+db+jms+security +ui) deployable to an application server by using only UML. Despite I didn't understand what really is meta-modeling I started using Umbrello, visual paradigm and eclipse emf. I've read just a little about omg's xmi standard. So supponing to have an xmi file I didn't understand how to generate java code. Eclipse emf for example would generate "strange" java code. Do I need to write my own xmi parser?
Do I need to write my own xmi parser?
No.
