Hi,
do you know if there is a support for SoaML planned for the future?
SoaML is a UML profile supporting the modeling of service oriented
architectures.
Or is eclipse.stp a better place to ask?
Best regards
Michael

Hi,
I've found that there is a UML profile on modeldriven.org for SoaML. The
entire product can only be used with MagicDraw. But, maybe the profile
can be used to create a customized SoaML Editor that is not only an UML
editor using the profile.
Best regards
Michael

Hi,
the UML profile can simply be used with the current UML editor. You can
create UML diagrams using the stereotypes of the profile.
But I think for SoaML more features would be great. Creating WSDL files
from SoaML diagrams etc.
Thus, the profile + using the standard UML editor is only the beginning.
SoaML seems to be so much more, so it would be nice to enhance the UML
editor with SoaML specifics.

Hi Vlad,
nice! I think that SoaML is a good basis for an entire SOA framework.
According to OMG SoaML can be used together with BPMN etc. Would be
great to combine all these SOA relevant standards within one tool to get
an integrated tool chain.
Take a look at this:
http://www.opengroup.org/projects/soa/uploads/40/20044/W096. pdf
It shows the different open standards for SOA and their relations.
Best regards
Michael
