PI17715: Rational Rhapsody in Ada initialisation code generation issue

Rational Rhapsody 8.1.1

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Error Description: In a model where objects are instansiated at
  package level an Ada library called
  ?package_name?-Ria_Instances.ad* is created.
  
  In Rhapsody 8.0.1 and earlier if the class initialize operation
  property 'ThisAccessTypeUsage' was set to 'Regular' the
  initialize_relations call in the instances package correctly
  passed in a pointer. If the class initialize operation property
  'ThisAccessTypeUsage' was set to 'None' the initialize_relations
  call in the instances package correctly dereferenced the pointer
  by adding '.
  all'.
  
  In Rhapsody 8.0.5 and 8.0.6 this functionality no longer works
  and the '.all' is added irespective of the setting of
  'ThisAccessTypeUsage'. This means code generated from these
  versions of Rhapsody no longer compiles.
  
  Where the classes have been instantiated inside another class
  the correct generation of initialize calls with and without the
  .all suffix is still made in the composite class' initialize
  operation.
  
  Workaround: The workaround consists in selecting the constructor
  of the object, even if there is only one constructor.

  issue
  

Problem conclusion

• If an instance is define on a package, the call of the
  constructor is generated with the same rule than for
  instances created in a class
