Error description

• In IBM Rational Software Architect (RSA), when you test two
  profile tooling projects in a new instance of RSA, and apply the
  one profile on the one model and the other profile on another
  model, the one model will have the context menu items for both
  profile tooling projects, while the other model will have the
  context menu items for neither profile tooling project.
  
  The following are the steps taken to reproduce the problem:
  
  1. Create two profile projects, ProfileProj1 and ProfileProj2
  
  2. Add a profile to each project, Profile1 and Profile2,
  respectively
  
  3. Add a stereotype to each profile, Stereotype1 and
  Stereotype2, respectively
  
  4. Add, for example, a 'Classifier' metaclass extension to each
  of the stereotypes in Step 2
  
  5. Save all the changes to both projects
  
  6. Create a profile tooling for each of the profile projects
  
  7. Multi-select the two profile tooling projects, right-click
  and select Run As ... ? Run Configurations... ? Eclipse
  Application ? Run
  
  RESULT: A new instance of RSA will open for testing purposes, as
  expected
  
  8. Add two models, Model1 and Model2, to the given project in
  the new RSA instance
  
  9. Apply Profile1 to Model1 and Profile2 to Model2 and then save
  all the changes
  
  10. Right click on Model1
  
  EXPECTED RESULT: The context menu displays the possible choices
  for Profile1, as Profile1 is applied to Model1
  
  ACTUAL RESULT: The context menu displays the possible choices
  for both Profile1 and Profile2, even though Profile2 is not even
  applied to Model1
  
  11. Right click on Model2
  
  EXPECTED RESULT: The context menu displays the possible choices
  for Profile2, as Profile2 is applied to Model2
  
  ACTUAL RESULT: The context menu displays the possible choices
  for neither Profile1 nor Profile2, even though Profile2 is
  applied to Model2.

Problem conclusion

• Profile specific unique literals are now created in
  configuration to avoid any conflict between
  ActionFilterProviders.
