Re: start point with MDR

Hi Rodrigo,
one good example of a standalone application based on MDR is UML2MOF 
tool. Source code can be found in the CVS under mdr/extras/uml2mof.
UML2MOF tool is a simple transformation tool that converts UML models to 
MOF. It does it by instantiating both MOF and UML metamodels, loading 
the UML XMI file into the instance of UML metamodel, then does the 
transformation from UML metamodel to MOF metamodel (using JMI API) and 
exports the content of MOF metamodel instance into a MOF XMI.
Regards,
Martin
