Error description
When a user defined pattern archive is created from exemplar flows with renamed list type promoted property, where the value can be selected from a drop down menu like the "Use compression" property of HTTP Request node, the new instance flows generated from this pattern archive will be corrupted or missing some lines which shows the allowed values of the promoted property in the properties tab of the flow in the toolkit. It is to be noted that this happens only if the exemplar flow's promoted list type property is renamed before creating the pattern archive.
Local fix
On the corrupted generated flows opened on the toolkit, right click on the flow designer and select "Promote Property...". The renamed list type promoted property will be visible in the promoted properties window which can be renamed, select and rename the property and save the flow. The flow needs to reopened on the toolkit to rebuild,. On completion of rebuild of flows, there will be no issues or the corrupted flows will be automatically resolved.
Problem summary
**************************************************************** USERS AFFECTED: All Users of IBM App Connect Enterprise V12.0 using toolkit to generate flows from patterns. Platforms affected: Linux on x86-64 platform, Windows on x86-64 platform **************************************************************** PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: When a user defined pattern archive is created from exemplar flows with renamed list type promoted property, where the value can be selected from a drop down menu like the "Use compression" property of HTTP Request node, the new instance flows generated from this pattern archive will be corrupted or missing some lines which shows the allowed values of the promoted property in the properties tab of the flow in the toolkit. It is to be noted that this happens only if the exemplar flow's promoted list type property is renamed before creating the pattern archive. On downloading the pattern archive to toolkit and creating new instance from this pattern, the generated flows will be corrupted and the toolkit will throw "java.lang.NullPointerException at com.ibm.etools.mft.flow.xproperties.PropertiesManager.createProp ertyEditor(PropertiesManager.java:983)"
Problem conclusion
The pattern archive created with renamed enum type promoted properties in flows will generate instances with non-corrupted flows in the toolkit. --------------------------------------------------------------- The fix is targeted for delivery in the following PTFs: Version Maintenance Level v12.0 12.0.10.0 The latest available maintenance can be obtained from: http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=849&uid=swg27006041 If the maintenance level is not yet available,information on its planned availability can be found on: http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=849&uid=swg27006308 ---------------------------------------------------------------
