Error description

  • Environment: Windows 7
    Product name: IBM Rational Business Developer
    
    Program Version    :  8.5.1.1
    Description.
    Some inconsistency has been observed in the order of specific
    CSS files when being generated into the appropriate destination
    HTML file.
    An example scenario includes 3 levels of CSS files.
    a)  First level,uses the com.ibm.egl.rui project.
    b)  Second level is project which contains user custom widgets.
    c)  Third level is the handler project using default as well as
    custom widgets.
    Expectation is the associated CSS files will replicate this
    specific order.
    
    However when creating a custom widget which extends an IBM RUI
    widget this order is not adhered to correctly.
    Steps to reproduce:
    a)  Create a custom TextLabel as a container for a standard
    TextLabel.
    b)  In the basic.css set the class ?EglRuiTextLabel? to the
    color as red.
    c)  In the custom widget project set the color as green.
    d)  Create a Handler which uses the custom TextLabel.
    e)  Open the handler in the preview view and when refreshing the
    page the labels highlighted color will change between red and
    green at random
