Question & Answer
Question
How do you use special characters like open bracket ( [ ), close bracket ( ] ) and dot (.) in IBM Rational Rhapsody?
Cause
You would like to use special characters in the elements name field.
For example, you would like to name an Item flow as TestFlow[2]
Answer
You need to modify the Rational Rhapsody property General::Model::NamesRegExp
For example, to use open and close bracket, you need to set the property value as:
^(([a-zA-Z_][]a-zA-Z0-9_\[]*)|(operator.+))$
Note: It is not possible to use dot (.) in an element name in Rational Rhapsody.
