1. A method for effecting data interchange between a Universal Modeling Language (UML) compliant software tool and a Meta Object Facility (MOF) compliant repository, the UML compliant software tool and the MOF compliant repository being included in a computer system and coupled together in a distributed heterogeneous environment, the method comprising the steps of:
a. registering and storing metadata describing a meta-model in the MOF compliant repository;
b. generating a set of rules corresponding to the metadata, wherein the set of rules is XML Document Type Definitions (DTD);
c. generating a stream of data representing a document corresponding to the meta-model based on the set of rules wherein the stream of data conforms to XML Metadata Interchange standard;
d. transmitting from the repository the stream of data, using an exporter module; and,
e. receiving at the software tool the transmitted stream of data, using an importer module.
2. A storage medium encoded with machine-readable computer program code for effecting data interchange among software tools and repositories in a distributed heterogeneous environment, wherein, when the computer program code is executed by a computer system having at least one Universal Modeling Language (UML) compliant software tool and at least one Meta Object Facility (MOF) compliant repository, the computer system performs the steps of:
a. registering and storing metadata describing a meta-model in the at least one MOF compliant repository;
b. generating a set of rules corresponding to the metadata, wherein the set of rules is XML Document Type Definitions (DTD);
c. generating a stream of data corresponding to the meta-model based on the set of rules, wherein the stream of data conforms to XML Metadata Interchange standard;
d. transmitting from the at least one MOF compliant repository the stream of data, using an exporter module; and,
e. receiving at the at least one UML compliant software tool the transmitted stream of data, using an importer module.
