Using the Designer > Data Formats

There are two main data formats used in the ILOG JViews Diagrammer files: XML (for application data and projects) and CSS for Java (for style sheets). ILOG JViews Diagrammer can also load application data from JDBC-compliant databases and the Designer can also load application data from flat files (for example, the CSV fomat).

If you have a custom data model, you should export the data to a project in Java code (see Project Files) and then load the resulting XML file.
