Import a Rhapsody Model

If you have developed a UML model in IBM Rational Rhapsody, you can import it into an Enterprise Architect project.

Each Rhapsody project contains one Project file (with the file extension .rpy), which is associated with a folder with the same name, ending in _rpy. For example, if the Rhapsody project file is called CDPlayer.rpy, it is associated with a folder called CDPlayer_rpy.

The associated folder contains all the project-related files. It could also contain a file named filesTable.dat, which lists all the files related to the Rhapsody project.
