I actually wrote an XMI to WSDL converter using the XMI from Borland Together producing the XMI and converting to WSDL using the apache Velocity template engine.
I'd be in an awkward position to mentor this as the work was written for a client of my employer. I do know that the client would like to see an open source solution but I'd compromise my situation to help achieve this too closely. The problem was (at least at the time of writing) that Borland generated a fairly java-centric WSDL (not doc literal) that lost a great deal of detail. Actually it was so poor I don't know how they dared release it. Other tools needed by the client dealt with something more MS centric and the whole desire of interoperabilty didn't quite exist in the tools at the time. At this point I created the issue at http://argouml.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=3161 A two way conversion would be very useful on several projects I've come across. Typically there are Java->WSDL or WSDL->Java tools but when it comes to contract first design there is not much around to help in a standard way. I support the need for this and would offer to help where I can but I'd be in a difficult position to act as a direct mentor. Regards Bob On 22/03/07, Artur Souza <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Philippe, I'd read an article describing exactly what this tool does and the idea can be used for components too (there is another article that mentions the differences between components, objects and e-services). The question is: Will this feature be useful for ArgoUML? I'd like to submit a project for Google Summe of Code. Yours, Artur Souza --- "Philippe de M.
