PI70187: WRONG MESSAGE AT "DELETE FROM MODEL" DELETES EXTERNAL UNIT

IBM Rational Rhapsody 8.2.1

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When removing  an "external" unit from the overall model
  Rhapsody , it gives a message saying the below.
  "Are you sure you want to delete Sw Component ExtendedExample
  and all the elements owned by it?"
  But actually it removes only form the model , it does not delete
  all the content of this.
  
  Hence the message is confusing and the correct message could be
  as follows:
  "Are you sure you want to remove this external unit from the
  model?"
  
  
  (So similar to the removal of a reference - because the
  resulting behavior is the same: removal of the unit from the
  model - while NOT  DELETING its CONTENT)
  
  This Defect is reference to the Fix of Enhancement Request IBM
  83771 (PMR 50948,070,724)

  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:                                         *
  * Rhapsody displays confirmation message when "Delete from     *
  * model" is activated. The actual behavior does not delete the *
  * file from disk, so the word "delete" is misleading in the    *
  * confirmation message.                                        *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
  ****************************************************************
  

Problem conclusion

• The "delete" activity is regarded now as "remove from model" in
  the confirmation dialog.
