PI90340: API POPULATEDIAGRAM INCORRECTLY DRAWS ACTIVITIES

IBM Rational Rhapsody 8.3.1

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• I create classes A-G. ClassG contains an activity diagram. When
  adding all classes and the activity to a diagram (using
  PopulateDiagram method), the activity is incorrectly drawn as a
  class.
  
  This one is a bit strange because if you look at the populate
  diagram window in the user interface, you can see that it is not
  possible to select an activity, only the classes. So it is
  possible that populate diagram feature does not support
  activities. Either way, the API  populateDiagram method should
  a) draw the activity correctly or b) not
  allow activities at all.
  
  At present it both allows it and draws it incorrectly.
