PM62765: Incorrect import of EA XMI types

Rational Rhapsody Fix Pack 2 (7.6.1.2) for 7.6.1
Rational Rhapsody 8.0
Rational Rhapsody 8.0.6

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When i import them a lot of elements are correct, but some are
  not. So for
  example all stereotypes used in the EA model are no longer
  available and
  it seems that they are not recognized any more. So how must be
  stereotypes
  be defined in the XMI file so that they are recognized and
  created?
  But the main problem i have is that the typdefs, structures are
  displayed as classes and not as types in Rhapsody. For
  enumerations it is working
  fine. So can you please tell me how the typedefs and structures
  must be
  written in the XMI file so that the import recognize them and
  does this
  in a correct way?

  EA XMI not UML2/XMI valid.
  -Stereotype extension uses not standard uri for reference
  uml metaclasses
  -Some uml metaclasses do not exist (for instance "Note")
  -Usage of non existing stereotype attribute when applying
  stereotypes
  -Some
  

Problem conclusion

• Fixed in 7.6.1.2.
  Now all references to UML metaclasses are converted to a
  valid URI
  False UML metaclasses are converted to existing ones
  (Note-?Class)
  Non-existing stereotype attributes are now:
  - ignored if considered as useless
  - recorded for displaying errors rather than breaking the
  import
  

Temporary fix
