We have encountered a number of usability problems with the round trip engineering capability of ANSI C++ in Rose 2001 1. Any class attribute which is not a modelled class or a recognised basic type is not reverse engineered. If this class is then forward engineered, the missing attribute is removed from the source. This means that the entire source base must be reverse engineered before forward engineering can take place. With a very large source base this is very impractical. 2. Although you can draw inheritances and associations between ANSI C++ and straight Classic C++ classes, they don't code-generate anything at all. Why? 3. Seem to have lost all capability for defining different association multipicities to generate different containers. In Classic C++ this was defined in the Project code generation properties but is not defined in ANSI C++. There also appears to be no way of defining a custom container as per the Container property in Classic C++. How can we generate a map / vector etc? 4. The path map stuff desnt appear to work. If you define a path in your path map it desnt automatically substitute this into you .mdl or .cat files when you save the model. This means that my loacl path settings get saved in the model which does not work in a team environment. With all of these problems the ANSI C++ seems fundamentally broken. Another classic release from Rational :-). Has anyone had similar experiences? ****************************************************************************************************************************************************** This e-mail has been prepared using information believed by the author to be reliable and accurate, but CWB makes no warranty as to accuracy or completeness.
