How to open file with .UML extension?

Don’t you know what program to use to convert the .UML file? Do you want to convert a .UML file into a different format? Below you will find helpful information.

.UML

A UML (Unified Modelling Language) Data Object Model, .UML file extension, is used to represent a data formation that has been organized in a fashion recognizable by Rational Rose, a software development tool created by IBM. The UML Data Object Model stores diagrams and other visual documentations of object-oriented programs written in different programming languages such as Visual C#.NET or Adobe ColdFusion MX, designed for the purpose of program analysis and design.

Representation of UML Data Object Models

UML Data Object Models are typically represented through an extensible markup language, such as XML. This allows the program to be designed using graphical designs of objects, such as shapes and text elements which can be used to represent both the attributes and characteristics of a particular object in an organized system. Through the UML file format, the resulting diagram is then saved as a text file with the .UML file type. This allows for easier manipulation of the graphical elements, in comparison to coding the object-oriented design.

Using UML File Format

The UML file format is used by developers of object-oriented software applications for quickly and easily changing diagrams upon request. It also enables specific features, such as highlighting Object States in different shapes and colors according to their importance level. It eliminates many of the tedious tasks they must do in order to open, save and edit large graphs. Similar file formats include .XMI, .EMX, RXF, and .XSD.

After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .UML) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .UML extension.

When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.

Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .UML file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .UML extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .UML extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .UML file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.

Other instructions

If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .UML file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.

In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .UML file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .UML file) will be extended to the maximum.

It is also good to check

  • if the .UML file has no errors
  • or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
In such a case it is best to try to download the .UML file again from the same source on the Internet (or look for another source). If you received the file from another person, ask this person to re-send it. However, if the file was copied from some media, repeat the copying operation.
