Hi,
we're pleased to announce the availablity of Archi 4 Beta 1 which supports the new concepts in ArchiMate 3.0.
Please be aware that this beta version cannot open/import Archi 3 models. The next beta version will have a converter to handle this. The aim of this first beta version is to get initial feedback and to catch any bugs before moving forward.

Thanks a lot Phil, this is really goond news.
May I do a bit of advertising about my database plugin as it already allow to convert Archi 3 models to Archi 4 with the following key caveats :
- views viewpoint is reset to "none"
- UsebByRelationship relations are converted to AssociationRelationship relations
Here is the instructions to convert a model from Archi 3 to Archi 4 :
- Install the database plugin in Archi 3 plugins folder : https://github.com/archi-contribs/database-plugin/raw/master/database%20plugin%20for%20Archi%203/org.archicontribs.database_v0.12(archi3).jar (https://github.com/archi-contribs/database-plugin/raw/master/database%20plugin%20for%20Archi%203/org.archicontribs.database_v0.12(archi3).jar)
- Create your Archi 3 database and declare it in Archi preferences
- Open your model and export it in your database
- Install the database plugin in Archi 4 plugins folder : https://github.com/archi-contribs/database-plugin/raw/master/database%20plugin%20for%20Archi%204/org.archicontribs.database_v0.12(archi4).jar (https://github.com/archi-contribs/database-plugin/raw/master/database%20plugin%20for%20Archi%204/org.archicontribs.database_v0.12(archi4).jar)
- Declare your Archi 3 database in Archi preferences
- Import your model from your database and save it as a new .archimate file (or even export it back to an Archi 4 database)
and voila ;D

Hi Phil,
what's new in this beta ?
When could we have a beta with DB plugin ?
Gilles
Hi,
Change log can be seen here https://github.com/archimatetool/archi/commits/master
DB plugin is not developed by me, so I have no control on that.
Phil
Hi gilles,
The DB plugin is available for both Archi 3 and Archi 4.
I tested the Archi 4 plugin against the beta 2 and will test it against beta 3 by the end of the week.
Best regards
Hervé
Thanks for your reply !
Hervé : after dropping the DB plug-in in the plugins folder, it doesn't appear in Archimate 4 beta 3 (& 2).
In beta 1 it was working ...
Best regards,
Gilles
Hi Gilles,
Some people experienced some missing librairies in my plugin. I compiled a new JAR with different parameters and this seems to solve the issue.
Could you please try with the vesion 0.12b available on GitHub ?
If this doesn't solve your issue, I will provide you with a procedure to gather logs that will help me find a solution.
Best regards
Hervé
Hervé,
problem solved !
I try deeply the plugin tomorrow.
Best regards,
Gilles
