PI97567: SEQUENCE DIAGRAM IS MODIFIED ON PROJECT LOAD; _MODIFIEDTIME IS CHANGED WITHOUT USER MAKING ANY CHANGES

IBM Rational Rhapsody 8.3.1

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• A sequence diagram is shown as modified as soon as the project
  is opened. User has made no changes. The _modifiedTime tag looks
  to be at fault.
  
  
  1) Open the project (some references may need to be relocated
  the first time). Save and reopen again if needed.
  2) On loading the project, the "SEQ_rbt_Trap_Startup" sequence
  diagram is displayed and the title bar shows the dirty indicator
  (*). See screenshot1.
  3) Inspecting the "rbt_Trap.sbsx" file shows that the
  _modifiedTime attribute is being changed for no apparent reason.
  See screenshot2
