Error description
Unable to use the Assign button in custom categories. This is caused by a data error in the library: the library has a circular plugin reference (plugin operacao.servicos has itself as a base plugin). To fix the error, use the text editor to remove this line in the 'plugin.xmi' file of 'operacao.servicos' plugin: (the 3rd line counting from the end of the file): ?bases href='#_HszMoKwPEeCXw95mY3z2tg'/? We created this APAR to improve the tool in rmc7.5.1.2 to better handle corner case like this. (1) Prevent circular plugin dependency in first place. The tool has already placed checks to prevent this from happening - but there may be still some corner case that this can happen - we will double check and fix it. (2) Allow 'Assign' button to work even if there is circular dependency.
