Sinopsis

Create more powerful, flexible applications using a new extension of the XML standard. Programmers are finding that the XMI extension of the XML standard provides a lot more flexibility in writing software for sharing data. Written by one of the principal authors of XMI, this book provides programmers with everything they need to know to best utilize this extension. The authors cover the basics first, detailing the essential concepts and explaining how XMI relates to XML and UML. Readers will then learn how to program with XMI, including how to express data in XMI, create XMI documents with Java, and merge documents. Samples of real-world XMI applications are also included throughout the book that show how IBM is using XMI with data warehousing and how to convert simple relational databases into XMI. CD-ROM includes sample XMI source code and software tools for developing XMI and XML applications.

De la contraportada

Create more powerful, flexible applications using a new XML-based standard!

XMI (XML Metadata Interchange) is an advance in XML technology that enables you to represent objects in XML, exchange those objects with other software tools, and exploit modeling technology in your XML applications. Mastering XMI includes examples written in Java that demonstrate practical techniques for using XMI with both XML and UML. Also included is a discussion of how IBM is using XMI in its latest software development tools.

The authors cover the basics first, detailing the essential XML and UML concepts that you need to know to understand XMI. In addition to XMI fundamentals, they explain how XMI works with the Model Driven Architecture (MDA), a new software development approach.

After learning how XMI works, you will then learn how to:
* Use XMI to express your object-oriented software models in XML
* Generate Java implementation classes from your models using the XMI Framework
* Create and read XMI documents in Java with standard XML APIs (DOM and SAX) and the XMI Framework
* Reverse engineer models from XML documents, DTDs, and schemas

The CD-ROM includes:
* The XMI Framework
* IBM(r) XML4J XML Parser
* A trial version of IBM(r) WebSphere(r) Studio Application Developer
* Java programs covered in the book

The companion Web site includes tips and updates for the XMI Framework and the Java examples in the book.
