The book on agile development which I bought a couple of months ago has a chapter on Model Driven Architecture (MDA). The examples featured AndroMDA.
Since the moment I first read about it I knew I had to try it, but till now I didn’t really have time to investigate it. But now, at the start of my new project I decided to give it a go; since the model of the project will probably have to evolve in a couple of iterations. Apart from the dynamic nature of the model I will probably have to create a couple of different prototypes, with different persistence frameworks.

It took me over an hour to discover that the XMI version of my UML editors (Poseidon / MagicDraw) was incompatible (UML2) with AndroMDA (UML1.4). So, I got stuck… for now… until the download of a previous version of MagicDraw is complete. I’ll let you know!
Freezes (prev post) and version conflicts, really cutting edge!
It is always a difficult choice: nice things that don’t work versus working things that aren’t nice.
But how to find out about things that work if you don’t try?
Meanwhile I actually got AndroMDA to work… now only to put it to use
