The UML Profile for DDS goes Live!

This week, after circa 6 month from when the OMG recommended the UML Profile for DDS (UML4DDS), Sparx has made available a full implementation of this profile. This is a great news for all DDS users; now they have access to a great and affordable tool which will allow them to completely model DDS applications in UML. What I believe users will find fantastic is how the UML4DDS and the Sparx EA Tool make it very natural to work with the DLRL layer of DDS (see previous posts on DLRL and Hibernate). Many users, by seeing the UML4DDS will eventually realize that DLRL is the most natural way of using DDS from Object Oriented Languages, and certainly the most natural way of modeling DDS applications in UML.
