[mdr-users] MDR to create xmi from a java class

[Nyttle Veliath]

Hi,

I am curious to know , is there a way to get the meta model of a java
class from the existing source code?

Most of the MDA generators, load the xmi form of the uml model and
generate the code using templates and transformation rules. ie, always
start from the model.

But, practically, there may be some classes, develper needs to add during
the actual development. It is difficult to control the process always
starting from the model. In such situation, I feel, it would be more good,
if it is possible to upload the new java class into the existing xmi .

Can MDR support this fucntionality?

Or Is it possible to create any form of flat file representation of MOF
model from an existing Java source code ? If so how?

Your response would truely be apprciated.

ThankYou Vekynuch.
