Issue 13444: Annex A refers to non-existing CMOF file (mof2core-rtf) Source: Adaptive (Mr. Gene Mutschler, gene.mutschler(at)adaptive.com) Nature: Revision Severity: Significant Summary: Annex A (which is normative), refers to the availability of the XMI for CMOF in the OMG document ptc/04-10-17. However, this document is not available at the OMG web site (at least not as a publicly available, searchable document). The annex being normative and the spec being publicly available, it would follow that a referenced ptc document would be publicly available. Without an available normative XMI for CMOF, it is not possible to produce a conforming implementation of it. I tried the MOF2.cmof file in the non-normative zip file (document 03-04-08). However, this file is not usable, as it has several errors and missing information. Resolution: The lack of this document was caused by structural problems in the UML 2.0 metamodel on which MOF 2.0 was based – which meant that UML 2.0 itself had no XMI file. The normative XMI file will be produced for this revision of MOF and referenced from Annex A.
