[mdr-users] UML2MOF throws ClassCastException

Hi,

when trying to convert an XMI 1.2 file produced by Enterprise Architect 5.0
(available here as zip: http://www.lixlix.org/misc/XForms.zip) using
UML2MOF, I permanently get the following error message:

Did anyone encounter a similar problem or has hints on how to resolve this
problem?

Thank you very much in advance,
