Rational Rhapsody Fix Pack 8.0.2
Rational Rhapsody 8.0.6

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• In Rhapsody C 7.6.1.1 there is the loss of a flow connector
  between the ports of two parts in an Internal Block Diagram if
  you do the following steps:
  
  1. Create a SysML project with a Block Definition Diagram, and
  add two blocks, A and B.
  2. Add two standard ports each to blocks A and B, to make ports
  A1, A2, B1 and B2.
  3. Create a flow from port A1 to port B1.
  4. Create an Internal Block Diagram.
  5. Drag and drop blocks A and B onto the IBD and create Parts
  from them. The flow between A1 and B1 should appear on the
  diagram.
  6. Create a new flow between ports A2 and B2 on the IBD.
  7. Save, close and reopen Rhapsody and the SysML project. The
  flow from A1 to B1 will not appear on the IBD anymore.
