IBM Rational Rhapsody 8.3.0

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• STEPS TO REPRODUCE
  
  1) Create a new project. Add a diagram, draw a flow between to
  elements. Make sure the flow is selected.
  2) Run the following API code:
  
  		IRPApplication app =
  RhapsodyAppServer.getActiveRhapsodyApplication();
  		List<IRPGraphElement> lElements =
  app.getSelectedGraphElements().toList();
  		for (IRPGraphElement element : lElements) {
  			element.setGraphicalProperty("ShowName", "None");  // APAR
  PI79592
  		}
  3) Go back to Rhapsody, note the Name of the flow has indeed
  been removed.
  4) When saving the project error is displayed.
