Rational Application Developer for WebSphere Software 8.5.1
Rational Application Developer Standard Edition, Version 8.0.4.2

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Abstract:
  
  Attempts to generate a JAX-RPC WebService client using SDO in
  IBM Rational Application Developer results in error '6 path
  build entries are missing'
  
  Problem:
  
  The following steps reproduce the problem:
  
  1. Enable the following options under
  Windows ? Preferences ? Web Services ? Code Generation ? IBM
  WebSphere JAX-RPC ? WSDL2Java
  1.1. Disable data binding and use SOAPElement
  1.2. Generate SDO Facades for Java classes
  
  2. Right click on a WSDL file
  
  3. Select WebServices ? Generate Client
  4. Select  the JAX-RPC runtime
  5. Finish the wizard accepting all the default values
  
  Results:
  
  The Java Build Path contains references to classpath variables
  such as:
  
  WAS61_WEBSERVICE_EMF
  
  which points to the following incorrect path:
  C:/Program Files
  (x86)/IBM/SDP/file:..SDPShared/plugins/org.eclipse.emf_2.4.0.v20
  0902171115.jar
  
  The JAR files referenced by the variables are reported as
  missing.
  
  The JAR file above exists on the filesystem, but its absolute
  path is:
  
  C:/Program Files
  (x86)/IBM/SDPShared/plugins/org.eclipse.emf_2.4.0.v200902171115.
  jar
  
  Local fix:
  
  1. Open Windows ? Preferences ? Java ? BuildPath ? ClassPath
  variables
  2. Select each variable and click Edit
  2. Enter the absolute path to each JAR file in the value of the
  variables
  3. Build the project

  ****************************************************************
  The values for the classpath entries for the EMF JAR files
  are incorrect. The classpath entries do not point to the
  proper JAR files.
  

Problem conclusion

• How the classpath entries are constructed needed to take
  into account the OSGi bundle format.
  
  The fix for this APAR is included in Rational Application
  Developer v8.0.4.2.
