  Rhapsody 8.05 (and older versions) does not generate correct
  include statements for ??topicStruct?? and ??idlType??
  elements from C++ elements.
  

Problem conclusion

• Rhapsody 8.0.6 generates correct include statements for
  ??topicStruct?? and ??idlType?? elements from C++ elements.
  A new property was added to DDS profile:
  TypeGeneratedForIDLStruct. This property defines the type
  generated for IDL struct elements. It is being used to
  define whether forward declarations to ??topicStruct??
  elements should use "struct" or "class" types. It is set
  under RTI and OSPL metaclasses. For RTI it is set to "Class"
  according to the behavior of RTI 5. For RTI 4.5.x users: it
  is recommended to set this property to "Struct" in order to
  generate correct forward declaration.
