7. Open a Command Prompt in the directory where you created this pom.xml and run the command mvn without any arguments. Make sure the command completes successfully by displaying the BUILD SUCCESSFUL message.
8. You can now delete the temporary directory you created in step 1.

10. Use following command to generate the project:
    

mvn org.andromda.maven.plugins:andromdapp-maven-plugin:generate

instead of
