Hey all,

First off, are there any in-depth technical resource where I can find more
detailed information on reverse engineering / forward generation
capabilities in Rose?  I can't find much on google, deja, or the rational
developer network site.

Now my specific question.  Why does Rose insist on relocating ANSI C++
classes to new logical packages when I reverse engineer?  This seems to
contradict behavior I had seen previously.  If I reverse engineer a set of
components and arrange the classes into appropriate logical packages, when I
try to reverse engineer again Rose *sometimes* updates those classes in
place and sometimes "relocates" the classes back to the "C++ Reverse
Engineered" package.

Also, and I believe this is related, if I select a group of components and
try to forward generate the code, the forward generation process dies after
processing one of the components that would be relocated (described in the
previous paragraph).  In other words, Rose is still open but the forward
generation has stopped before processing all of the components.

A specific example might help.  Let's say I have C++ classes (and
components) A,B, and C.  I can reverse engineer all three, which places
three classes in Logical View::Reverse Engineered C++::etc.  If I move those
classes into [say] Logical View::Test and reverse engineer them again, Rose
may move class B (and only B) back into Reverse Engineered C++.  If I move
it back, and try to forward generate, Rose will forward generate files for
classes A and B and then stop.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.  This is quite frustrating.
