PM52588: When there is not default constructor specified in the derived class, the code generation process results in Rhapsody Crash

Rational Rhapsody 7.6.1

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• GenerateImplicitConstructors for Class B
  e) Generate the code.
  g) Rhapsody crashes.
  
  Support Analysis:
  Informed the customer on how the constructor of B has to be
  generated because it inherits from A. And that it is done by
  default in Rhapsody when the property is checked. However,
  customer feels that Rhapsody should have an error catch
  mechanism to arrest this issue rather than just CRASH.
  

Local fix

Problem summary

• If there is no default constructor specified for a derived Java
  class, Rhapsody closes unexpectedly during code generation.
  

Problem conclusion

• This issue was fixed in version 7.6.1. Note, however, that the
  generated code will not compile if you do not provide your own
  constructor.
