XSDDataTypes Package: This package contains classes representing XSD primitive data types. This package is available as an XMI file. To import the file as a UML Package, use EA's XMI import facility which is available from the menu item: Project | Import/Export | Import Package from XMI. UML Profile for XML: This resource file contains the stereotyped classes which allow the schema generation to be customized. The UML Profile for XML can be imported into a model using the Resource View (see Importing Profiles for details on importing UML profiles into EA).

Steps to Generate XSD: Select the package to be converted to XSD by right-clicking on the package in the Project Browser. Select Project | Generate XML Schema from the main menu. Set the desired output file using the Filename field. Set the desired xml encoding using the Encoding field. Click on the Generate button to generate the schema. The progress of the schema generator will be shown in the Progress edit box.

Baseline Diagram Comparison Conduct a visual diagram comparison between your current diagram and a previous baseline .

Personal Information Window See how the Personal Information Window in Enterprise Architect can help you organize your daily tasks and workflow.

Working Sets As you perform work on your model, you open various windows, diagrams and views. Working Sets allow you to return to these same views in a later work session.

Business Rules A car rental system is used to illustrate how to generate executable business rules using Enterprise Architect.

Enterprise Architect User Guide provides tutorials, guidance and reference material to help you use Enterprise Architect in: Modeling With Enterprise Architect Model Management Project Management Model Auditing Model Baselining and Differencing Model User Security Model Version Control Code Engineering Visualization and Analysis of Code Execution RTF and HTML Document Creation (Reports)

If you are new to modeling and UML as well as Enterprise Architect, or otherwise want a rapid review of the process of modeling with Enterprise Architect, go to the Quickstart Tutorial.

EJB MDG Technology for Enterprise Java Beans allows the user to model EJB entities and EJB sessions, complete with UML profiles for modeling EJB, EJB patterns and Code Management. (requires Enterprise Architect 4.1 or later)

ICONIX AGILE DDT ICONIX Agile Developer - Design-Driven Testing (DDT) streamlines the ICONIX modeling process, providing: Convenient modeling of robustness diagrams Automatic generation of sequence diagram structures from robustness diagrams Transformation of robustness control elements to test diagrams Transformation of sequence diagram elements to test diagrams Transformation of requirement diagrams to test diagrams Transformation between test cases and test classes. (JUnit & NUnit) Built-in model validation rules for ICONIX robustness diagrams (requires Enterprise Architect 7.5 or later)

Testing MDG Technology for Testing helps users to rapidly model a wide range of testing procedures including component testing, SUT, Test Cases and more. (requires Enterprise Architect 4.1 or later)

Instructions for loading an MDG Technology EXE file: Download and run the .exe file to install the MDG technology. Open Enterprise Architect. Select from the Main Menu Add-Ins | XYZ Technology | Load.

Built-in MDG Technologies: Most of the MDG Technologies provided by Sparx Systems are built into Enterprise Architect directly. Depending on your edition of Enterprise Architect, some or all of the following MDG Technologies will be available:

Gang of Four Patterns

Mind Mapping

Web Modeling

Data Flow (DFD)

Entity-Relationship (ERD)
