PM94092: Code error on having nested template classes

Rational Rhapsody 8.0.5
Rational Rhapsody 8.0.6

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Description
  ----------
  Nested template class in template class generates syntactical
  wrong code. Please find a sample model attached where the
  behavior is observed using Rhapsody 8.0.3.
  
  In the attached model (Model803.zip) you will find a template
  class 'OuterC' with a nested template class 'InnerC'.
  
  The generated code does not compile because of wrong C++ syntax
  of the constructor/destructor of the inner class 'InnerC'.
  
  
  Modeling of inner template classes in template classes is not
  possible because of the reported error.
  

Local fix

Problem summary

• Code error on having nested template classes
  

Problem conclusion

• There are 2 parts for this APAR:
  1. The operations of a template that is nested inside another
  element should be in declaration - this is fixed.
  2. Using an inner template class, outside of the owner class. -
  This looks like a bad modelling - as it breaks encapsulation. It
  seems like The proper thing to do here, is pull the inner
  template to reside the outer class. in any case - Rhapsody does
  not supports this - there is no option to choose the 'inner'
  template parameter. If customer insists this is what he wants -
  please open an RFE.
