PM41629: SE-Toolkit does not warn user when actor pin is not linked to an actor while generating sequence diagram

Rational Rhapsody 8.0
Rational Rhapsody 8.0.6

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Configuration:
  --------------
  
  Rhapsody with Sysml and Harmony
  
  Description:
  --------------
  
  During creation of a sequence diagram using the SE-Toolkit,
  Rhapsody does not warn the user when an actor pin is not linked
  to an actor.
  
  It allows the user to follow the process till the end without
  showing any warning/error but does not create a sequence
  diagram.
  
  There is no way to tell why the sequence diagram was not
  created.
  On examination it was seen that the actor pin was not linked to
  an actor maybe because the actor was deleted or renamed.
  
  Looks like the actor pin does not follow the changes done to an
  actor.
  
  
  Expectation:
  -------------
  Rhapsody should warn the user that actor pin is not linked to an
  actor and prevent the process from continuing
  
  Impact:
  ---------
  Difficulty when applying the Harmony process
