# IDL 4 Sparx Enterprise Architect Extension
Sparx Enterprise Architect Extension to generate IDL 4 (RTI Connext DDS) files from the Enterprise Architect UML model.

The IDL4 extension creates a menu entry in Sparx Enterprise Architect that can be used to generate IDL from the current UML Model or parts of that model.

To install the IDL4 extension you must have Sparx Systems Enterprise Architect already installed in your system. The IDL4 extension has been tested with Sparx Enterprise Architect version 10, 12 and 13.5. See the notes associated with release for information on the version(s) of Enterprise Architect it has been tested against.

The IDL generated uses the syntax of the latest version of the [OMG IDL specification: IDL 4.1](http://www.omg.org/spec/IDL/). For backwards compatibility there is an option to use the legacy [OMG DDS-XTYPES version 1.1](http://www.omg.org/spec/DDS-XTypes/) syntax as well.
