How to use multicasting with SysML1.2 standard ports in Rational Rhapsody

Question & Answer


Question

How do you use multicasting with SysML1.2 standard ports in IBM Rational Rhapsody?

Cause

This is not documented elsewhere.

Answer

Multicasting works in a similar way for SysML1.2 standard ports as it does with UML standard ports. Rational Rhapsody still uses the MULTICAST_GEN macro. You have two options:

  1. Add a send action and Rational Rhapsody will automatically generate the correct macro - MULTICAST_GEN

    or,
  2. Add the MULTICAST_GEN macro manually to the statechart. For Rational Rhapsody, in C this should replaced with RiC_MULTICAST_GEN_PORT

An example project is attached.
