PM79105: Java Ports: UI should not allow creation of implicit objects, in Java

Rational Rhapsody Fix Pack 8.0.2
Rational Rhapsody 8.0.6

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Description
  -----------
  On creating an object, we are asked to choose a type or create a
  new one. There is no option to choose an implicit type as in
  C++. However we can change it to implicit later on using a
  features dialog. This is a defect, as the feature dialog should
  not allow implicit type to be chosen. Implicit objects are not
  supported by Rhapsody in Java. The UI should not allow creating
  such elements (as it currently does)

  Java Ports: UI should not allow creation of implicit
  objects, in Java
  

Problem conclusion

• We have removed the ability to choose "implicit" as a type
  for objects with explicit classes in the Features Dialog.
  However, drawing an object on a diagram will still create an
  object with an implicit type, as it always has.
