PI81878: ISSUE WITH NON-TRIVIAL CONSTRUCTOR INITIALIZER

IBM Rational Rhapsody 8.3.0

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• After updating a model from an earlier version of Rhapsody to
  Rhapsody 8.2, There are  some instances where the code is
  incorrect.
  When a constructor initializer contains a boolean expression
  with a greater-than (>) symbol, this is causing Rhapsody to
  generate what appears to be garbled code.
  For example, if the ctor initializer in the model contains the
  following:
  
  itsClass(argument_0, argument_0 > 0, argument_0, argument_0),
  attribute_0(argument_0)
  
  the resulting code is:
  
  class_with_gt_initializer::class_with_gt_initializer(int
  argument_0) :
  itsClass(argument_0, argument_0 > 0,
  argument_0),
  attribute_0(argument_0),
  argument_0),
  attribute_0(argument_0) {
  
  I have tried setting CPP_CG::Class::MultiLineInitializerList to
  false to see if the feature to format the initializer list on
  multiple lines is causing the issue, but that does not resolve
  it.

Problem conclusion

• constructor initializer with the chanracters '>','<' sometimes
  not Roundtriped, generated correctly
  problem fixed.
  
  one limitation stay, if initializer contain generalization to
  template class the strig in the template  <> section must not
  contain the charcters   '>','<' (exept as template brackets)
  posible work around this limitations:
  - brackets around the template  expresions, exapmples:
  superclass<(template_expersion > 1)>(init_expression)
   superclass<<(expe1 >1)>,<(expe2 <1)>>(init expression)
  -use property CPP_CG::Operation::OrderedConstructorInitializer
  for correct none reorder code generation
  -use property
  CPP_CG::Operation::DisableAutoGeneratedInitializer
  for simpler code generation and Roundtrip of constructor
  initialaizer, in this case the initialazer is a simple string
  that copied as is from the initializer field to the code in code
  generation and to the model in roundtrip
