How do I import a SysML model (in XMI format) to Papyrus?

I have an XMI 2.1 formatted SysML model, exported from Enterprise Architect.

I'm evaluating Papyrus as an alternate model IDE. I'd like to import my XMI file into Papyrus, including all structural and behavioral blocks.

Here's what I've tried:

1. Create a new Papyrus project.
2. Right-click on project, select Import, and browse to my XMI file.

However, this just includes t开发者_开发问答he XMI file in the Papyrus project. If I open it, I see the model elements as XML.

Does Papyrus support importing XMI, and if so, how do I accomplish this?

I worked through a similar problem recently, though with UML, so your mileage may vary.

I solved it with a hint regarding the Eclipse EMF from here: http://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php?t=msg&goto=606949&S=333b8c3faacad6b950cf6247312f9c3e

Since SysML is a dialect of UML2, you should be able to create a new EMF project; and in the project creation wizard, you will be presented with the option to import your XMI file.
