Error description
Attempts to to change the Flow Type for a line definition the associated arrow Depiction FROMTOTAG is not refreshed automatically on the diagram in IBM Rational System Architect (SA). Additional information: - This is initially reported as happening on versions 11.4.3.2, 11.4.3.3, 11.4.3.4 - Reported as a regression from 11.4.2.6 release. - Subsequent investigation found the regression started with 11.4.3.1 release. Hence 11.4.2.7 and 11.4.3 are ok. Impact: You need to manually refresh the diagram. This is tedious. SYMPTOM Usrprops.txt: RENAME DIAGRAM "USER 1" TO "My Data Flow Diagram" RENAME DEFINITION "USER 1" TO "My Function" RENAME DEFINITION "USER 2" TO "My Data Flow" RENAME SYMBOL "USER 1" TO "My Function" RENAME SYMBOL "USER 2" TO "My Data Flow" LIST "My Flow Type" { VALUE "Regular Flow" DEPICTIONS { DIAGRAM LINE_END\\OPEN_ARROW } VALUE "Control Flow" DEPICTIONS { DIAGRAM LINE_END\\BLACK_ARROW } } DIAGRAM "My Data Flow Diagram" { } DEFINITION "My Function" { } DEFINITION "My Data Flow" { PROPERTY "KeyGUID" { KEY EDIT TEXT ASGUID LENGTH 80 READONLY INVISIBLE BROWSER {HIDE} } PROPERTY "Flow Type" { EDIT TEXT LISTONLYCOMBO LIST "My Flow Type" LENGTH 30 INIT_FROM_SYMBOL TOTAG } PROPERTY "Source" { EDIT HETEROGENEOUSONEOF "My Function" AND_SUBTYPES FROMDEF } PROPERTY "Target" { EDIT HETEROGENEOUSONEOF "My Function" AND_SUBTYPES TODEF } } SYMBOL "My Function" { ASSIGN TO "My Data Flow Diagram" REPRESENTS NODE "My Function" } SYMBOL "My Data Flow" { ASSIGN TO "My Data Flow Diagram" REPRESENTS EXPLICIT RELATIONSHIP "My Data Flow" DEPICT LIKE "Generic Line" DEPICTIONS { MENU "images\lineend1.bmp" } PROPERTY "Flow Type"{ EDIT TEXT LISTONLY LIST "My Flow Type" DEFAULT "Regular Flow" LENGTH 30 TOTAG } } Steps to reproduce: 1. Create a "My Data Flow Diagram" 2. Draw two "My Function" symbols 3. Draw a "My Data Flow" between the two symbols 4. Choose the property "Flow Type" to change the depiction of the target end 5. Press either "OK" or "Apply" Expected Result: The depiction on the line for the flow arrow to change. Unexpected Result: The depiction on the line for the flow arrow does not change. WORKAROUND Click on the "Dictionary Refresh" Icon on the Standard Tool-bar. The line depiction regarding the flow arrow is now updated.
