Rational Method Composer Integration

Rational Software Architect  V7.5 which includes publishing UML modeling items to the Rational Asset Manager repository.  You can publish modeling items such as UML models, UML fragments, UML profiles, topologies, and their related artifacts to the Rational® Asset Manager repository. You can publish either the main item or the main item and its related item. By default, a new asset is created for each modeling item that you select to publish. The appropriate dependencies are also created between related items.

You can also search, download and import modeling assets such as UML models, UML fragments, UML profiles, and topologies from Rational® Asset Manager to the workspace. You can import either the main asset or the main asset and its related assets.

Rational Asset Manager client must be installed into your Eclipse or Rational Software Architect.  On the Rational Asset Manager Server you must import the Schema to enable this integration.  See
