1.0 Known problems

1.1 Tutorials might not be available in the Tutorials Gallery

In the Tutorials Gallery, under Watch and Learn, the tutorial titled Creating architectural control rules and reviewing the architecture of an application is not available. If you click the Start the tutorial link, an error message is displayed.

To work around this issue, update the online help for this product release by using the Rational Product Updater.

To update the online help, on the main menu of the product, click Help > Software Updates > IBM Rational Product Updater.

1.2 RAS asset technology samples do not import properly

The Samples Gallery contains Reusable Assets Specifications (RAS) asset technology samples. When you import the samples, only the project directories are imported; the files that the project directories contain (for example, model files) are not imported.

1.3 The complete implementation of the PiggyBank sample might not import properly

On Linux operating systems, if you import the PiggyBank complete implementation sample from the Samples Gallery, by clicking Application samples > Piggy Bank Application, the sample might not import properly causing the product to not respond.

To work around this issue, perform the following steps:

  1. Close the product.
  2. Delete the following directories from your home directory:
    • /.eclipse
    • /rational
  3. Start the product to re-create the configuration information.
  4. Close the product.
  5. Start the product and import the sample.

1.4 Samples might not import properly because of character encoding

On Red Hat Enterprise Linux, Version 3.0, if you import the Model-to-Text Transformations sample or the Sub-Element Counter sample from the Samples Gallery, by clicking Technology samples > UML Modeler Plug-ins, the sample might not import properly because of character encoding.

To work around this issue, change the default encoding for text files by completing the following steps:

  1. Click Window > Preferences.
  2. Expand Workbench and click Editors.
  3. Under Text file encoding, click the Other option and in the list, click ISO-8859-1.
  4. Click Apply.
  5. Click OK.
  6. Import the sample.

1.5 The Tutorials Gallery and Samples Gallery might not contain translated information

Many of the tutorials and samples in the Tutorials Gallery and Samples Gallery have not been translated into Japanese, Korean, simplified Chinese, and traditional Chinese.

To work around this issue, update the online help for this product release by using the Rational Product Updater.

To update the online help, on the main menu of the product, click Help > Software Updates > IBM Rational Product Updater.

1.6 The Tutorials Gallery and Samples Gallery table of contents might contain invalid characters

In the Portuguese (BR), German, and Spanish versions of the Tutorials Gallery and Samples Gallery, invalid characters might appear in the table of contents.

1.7 Updates are missing from the Piggy Bank samples documentation

In the Samples Gallery, under Application Samples > Piggy Bank Application > Complete Implementation, the following introductory sentence for the "PiggyBank Complete Implementation setup instructions" has been removed, as it does not apply to the steps that follow, nor does it apply to the goals of the sample:

To run the transformations, you must import the project into your workspace, open the Modeling perspective, and invoke the transformations.
