uml4net is a .NET implementation of the OMG UML specification. It is typically used to read a UML model from a canonical XMI file and generate code on the basis of its content. A large part of the classes contained in the various projects are code generated using uml4net itself by parsing the Normative Machine Readable Documents provided with the spec:
| Description | URL |
|---|---|
| UML 2.5.1 Abstract Syntax Metamodel | UML/20161101/UML.xmi |
| UML 2.5.1 Primitive Types | UML/20161101/PrimitiveTypes.xmi |
| UML 2.5.1 Standard Profile | UML/20161101/StandardProfile.xmi |
| UML 2.5.1 Diagram Interchange Metamodel | UML/20161101/UMLDI.xmi |
The uml4net solution contains the following libraries/packages:
-
uml4net: The core library/project that contains all the class definitions as they appear in the UML 2.5.1 specification. -
uml4net.Extensions: A library/project that provides extension methods for the uml4net library/project. -
uml4net.xmi: A typed XMI reader library/project to read a canonical XMI file that contains a UML model. -
uml4net.HandleBars: A library/project that provides HandleBars helpers to support code generation. -
uml4net.Reporting: A library/project that provides a number of report generators (html, xlsx, text) that generate documentation on the basis of the loaded UML model. -
uml4net.Tools: A commandline application that is used to generate reports on the contents of a UML model. Find the documentation here.
The package are available on Nuget at:
GitHub actions are used to build and test the uml4net libraries

The Object Management Group (OMG) is an international technology standards consortium. It was founded in 1989 with the goal of creating and maintaining vendor-neutral, interoperable, and portable standards for distributed computing. UML is one of the standards provided by OMG at http://www.omg.org/spec/UML/
