PI12780: Using PluginMethodToRunOnApply property with customized toolbar return unexpected selected element

Rational Rhapsody 8.1

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• PluginMethodToRunOnApply property. This returns the expected
  value when applying a stereotype to an element, but if the new
  term stereotype is added to the diagram toolbar, when adding the
  new term to a diagram it returns the diagram instead of the
  element to which it the stereotype is applied.

  Fixed by adding a new property named
  Model::Stereotype::PluginMethodToRunOnApplyWithGUID that
  points to a method in the plugin that gets a String. The
  String contains the GUID of the element that got the
  Stereotype. The user can find the element itself by using
  the findElementByGUID method on the IRPProject.
  It is recommended to use this new property instead of the
  old Model::Stereotype::PluginMethodToRunOnApply property.
  

Problem conclusion

• Fixed in 8.1
