ArgoUML = XMI 1.3
Andromda supports XMI 1.4 only at this time

No you don't need to set any env. variables

I don't know what you did to get that error, I just tried to build a project
from scratch and it worked just fine

You'll need to get familiar with Maven, if you have followed the guidelines
from the website: http://team.andromda.org/docs you should be able to do
this:

%> maven andromdapp:generate

It will indeed download dependencies, but these are included in the binary
distribution as well (just copy the /lib directory into your
$USER_HOME/.maven/repository .. then they will not be downloaded)

If they _are_ downloaded it means you did not have the good version yet



To learn how stuff ought to be modeled you best take a look at the sample
applications (also in the binary distribution), they all have a /mda/src/uml
subdirectory which contains an XMI (I recommend opening it with MagicDraw so
you can see the diagrams - XMI does not store diagram information, or more
precisely: the stored diagrams are not cross-platform)

We'll be updating the docs to better show what is needed to do to get
started - when we have time.
