APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Environment: Windows
  Product name: IBM? Rational? Business Developer
  
  Program Version    :  7.5.1.5
  Description.
  Failures in to creating a 'EGL session scope variable' in the JS
  F editor when the type used is defined in another project.
  Right clicking on the sessionScope in the JSF editor and try to
  create a new session scoped variable via the 'Add EGL Session Sc
  ope Variable ' wizard based on a type which is defined in anothe
  r project, nothing happens while a new variable should be create
  d.
  Reproduce this condition with the following steps:
  a) Add second referenced Project to the EGL Build path of an ini
  tial project which contains a new session type ie sessionStorage
  2
  b) In Pagedata view tab of JSP select  SessionScope -? New-? Add
   EGL Session Scope variable.
  
  c) Choose existing types and both the original sessionStorage ty
  pe within the target project are available in search option alon
  g with my new sessionStorage2.
  d) Adding the original session scope variable available with the
   project works fine sessionStorage
  e) Now adding my second session variable ,sessionStorage2, from
  the referenced project does not throw any error message and the
  wizard apparently completes but the variable is not added to the
   sessionScope entries, nothing happens.
  
  
  The wizard should either throw an error when trying to add this
  variable or if not applicable it should not be available, seen w
  ithin the add EGL variable wizard -? search list.
