Error description
Environment: - Windows 7 - RSA 8.5.1 - RTC 3 Reproducible: Y Description of problem: The property 'Allow modeling tools (for example, UML) to participate in file content during Accept - Logical Models - com.ibm.xtools.model.ui.resources.modelProvider' that can be found under the 'Window ? Preferences' menu in the 'Team ? Jazz Source Control ? Model Enablement' tab is not enabled by default. On some occasions, this can lead you to lose your local changes when you accept the incoming changes. Steps to reproduce: Simply open RSA on a new workspace and notice that this property is not checked by default Workaround: You have to check this property manually. But to do that, you need to be aware of this property's existence which is therefore not very convenient.

Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** Modeling tools (for example, UML) are not allowed to participate in file content during Accept by default
Problem conclusion
Rational Team Concert provides very limited support for logical model merge. This feature of RTC was not tested enough in combination with Rational Software Architect products. There is high risk of wrong Compare/Merge behavior when this option is used. Thus it is recommended to have it disabled by default.
Temporary fix
