Yes that is a interesting item. 
Just to expand on what Vishu said:

the variables are kept in the registry but in two places.
1)  HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Rational Software\Rose\Virtual Path Map
2) HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Rational Software\Rose\Virtual Path Map

The "current user" can be edited in the drop down editor.
The "local machine" can not. I use regedit to make changes.

Subject: (ROSE) setting the location of generated C++ code in Rose 2000e



Hi all, I am using rose 2000e and  am trying to set the ROSECPP_SOURCE
variable.  Currently when I select File->Edit Path Map this variable does
not appear in the list.  When I try to add it to where I want the source
placed Rose refuses to saying that this is a reserved variable.  Any help
on how to get your generated source somewhere other than the default
location would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Jeff Engler

Vishu says:

ROSECPP_SOURCE does not appear in the File->Edit Pathmap because it is
pre-defined pathmap
that may used by other aspects of Rose.  If you edit the location to which
the
ROSECPP_SOURCE pathmap points you might end up breaking some other
functionality in Rose.
If you want to generate your code to some other location besides
ROSECPP_SOURCE you can:

1. Do a Tools->Options and look under the C++ tab.
2. Under the C++ tab set the 'Type' drop down list box to Project and  look
for a
'Directory' property in the list of Model Properties.
3. By default the 'Directory' property will be set to $ROSECPP_SOURCE.  You
can change this
to either another pathmapped location (like $MY_CODE) or a hard path (like
C:\MyCode).  If
you use another pathmapped location you will of course have to define the
new pathmap in
File->Edit Pathmap.  The code will then get generated to the C:\MyCode
directory.

FYI..you can edit the ROSECPP_SOURCE pathmap in the registry.  Expand the
HKEY_CURRENT_USER|Software|Rational Software|Rose|Virtual Path Map key.
You will find ROSECPP_SOURCE and other predefined pathmaps in there.

Regards

Vishu
