Prerequisites

CIMTool runs on Windows and Linux with Java 5 or 6. It is a pure java application with no particular operating system dependencies so it may run on other systems.

CIMTool is based on the Jena toolkit, which is included in the distribution.

Installation

To install:

1. Install a Java Runtime Environment or check that you have this installed already.

2. Unzip CIMTool20070924.zip which will create directory CIMTool20070924. This directory may be moved to any convenient location.

Usage

Open (double-click) CIMTool.jar, which is in the directory CIMTool20070924. Alternatively, run the command: java -jar CIMTool.jar

You will then be presented with a wizard style user interface.

See the guide for step by step instructions.

Test Data

The CIM File can be supplied as:

  • XMI 1.1/1.2+ UML 1.4/2.1 format (with file names *.xmi or *.xml) or
  • OWL ontology previously exported (with filename *.owl or *.rdf).

Variants of the XMI format from Rational Rose (Unisys plugin), Poseidon (UML 1.4) and Rational XDE (UML 1.3 and 1.4) and Enterprise Architect (UML 2.1) have been tested and are read correctly.

The CIM XMI files are available from CIM Users Group Release Page.

mdiMessage and cimBase2

Most people should use the new 'Standard' XML Schema format, which does not import any external schema.

However, if you plan to use the old WG14 XML message syntax you will need the file mdiMessage.xsd which defines the WG14 message header and object association syntax. You will _not_ need the cimBase2 file.
