Error description
DOORS ReqIF: Importing ReqIF files into DOORS or DNG doesn't retain DXL Attribute values. Steps to reproduce: ============== 1? Use any version of DOORS after 9.5.1.0 (say latest 9.5.2) 2? Have a Module which has a couple of DXL Attributes in it. As expected, Objects would have associated values for the DXL Attributes. 3? Export such a Module to ReqIF, you can use 'no locks' while exporting. 4? Import the ReqIF file into either a DOORS Database OR into DNG. You would observe that though the DXL Attributes are listed in the Module, none of the values for these Attributes are retained. i.e values for these DXL Attributes are empty for all the Objects. NOTE: This behavior is observed in DOORS version 9.5.1.2 ? latest 9.5.2. However, this issue is not observed in DOORS 9.5.1.0

Problem conclusion
Added a special case for DXL attributes to revert to the previous behaviour (exporting the current calculated value of the DXL attribute) rather than treating it as empty and not exporting it at all.
