About this tutorial

This tutorial uses the sample IBM® Rational® Rose model provided with IBM® Rational® Systems Developer along with some lessons learned from actual migration experiences to guide you through the process of migrating your UML models and Java/C++ code from Rational Rose into Rational Systems Developer. Model import utilities are provided with Rational Systems Developer to automate much of the migration process. However, successful migrations require some pre-migration steps to prepare your Rational Rose models. The guidance provided in this tutorial will help to ensure that your migration efforts will be successful.

This tutorial is the first in a two-part series covering the migration of existing UML models and Java/C++ code into Rational Systems Developer. This first tutorial specifically focuses on migrating existing Rational Rose UML models and any associated code. The second tutorial in the series focuses on the migration of existing IBM® Rational® Rose XDE UML models.
