Try reverse engineering only a subset of the package you have already tried to reverse engineer. Repeat this until you have reverse engineered all classes in the package. You may find that Rose cannot reverse engineer some classes at all. Some standard C++ language elements can upset Rose's reverse engineer process due to Rose's incomplete support for standard C++.
Enjoy. -----Original Message----- From: Frank J. Lagattuta [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, 8 July 2002 17:04 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: (ROSE) Problems reverse engineering with VC++ I've run into problems reverse engineering a VC++ project. I am trying to reverse engineer a project that is part of a bigger workspace. In Rose I select Tools -> Visual C++ -> Update Model from Code... I select the project from a running instance of Visual Studio and start the reverse engineering process. The progress dialog states that it is parsing the files and proceeds quite well for a while. Inevitably, progress stalls with the CPU pegged at 100%. When I return to my computer hours later the progress meter is at the same place and I have several system dialogs on screen warning that my memory is low. The reverse engineer process does not proceed any further and Rose is unresponsive. My only recourse is to kill Rose from Task Manager. This is reproducible -- I've tried 3 times today with the same result each time! Note: the reverse engineer process does not fail while parsing the same file each time, so I don't believe the problem has anything to do with the content of the files being reverse engineered (but I may be wrong). Here is my setup: Microsoft Windows 2000 SP2 Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 SP5 Rational Rose Professional C++ Edition Release Version 2002.05.01 Addin: Rose 7.6.0201.0210 Addin: VC++ 7.6 I've searched for info on the Rational Web site and looked for any patches I may be missing -- no luck. Please advise on how to get the VC++ reverse engineering to work. -Frank ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~ Frank Lagattuta [EMAIL PROTECTED] Arborte><t, Inc. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~ ************************************************************************ * Rose Forum is a public venue for ideas and discussions. * For technical support, visit http://www.rational.com/support * * Post or Reply to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] * Subscription Requests: [EMAIL PROTECTED] * Archive of messages: * http://www.rational.com/support/usergroups/rose/rose_forum.jsp * Other Requests: [EMAIL PROTECTED] * * To unsubscribe from the list, please send email * To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] * Subject: <BLANK> * Body: unsubscribe rose_forum *************************************************************************
