The following are frequently asked questions and answers for Rose Add-In.


 

1.Which Rose file versions can Rose Add-In read?

 

Rose Add-In was designed for Petal File versions V45 and V46. These correspond to Rational Rose product versions 7.6.x and 7.7.x.

 

2.[Rational Rose...] cannot be found under the [Import] menu..

 

There are two possible reasons why the menu does not show up. One is that Rose Add-In is not installed in StarUML(tm) or related files are damaged. To correct this, run the installation program to reinstall StarUML(tm) or select to reinstall Rose Add-In only. If you are familiar with the structure of StarUML(tm) Add-Ins, you may examine the registry or menu files to check for damage in the Add-In and correct the problem. Another possible reason for the problem is that Rose Add-In is disabled by Add-In Manager. If so, go to Add-In Manager and enable Rose Add-In. For the procedure to enable Rose Add-In, see the section on Rose Add-In Configurations.

 

 

3.Model structure and views are different when reading a Rose file.

 

Rational Rose differs from the UML specification standard in many ways. On the other hand, StarUML(tm) complies with the UML 1.4 specification standard. As a result, a Rose file may not look identical when opened in StarUML(tm). Although Rose Add-In is designed to read the model information defined in Rose files with minimum loss and alteration, view locations and some information may change. Please refer to the StarUML(tm) log window for any changes or loss of information and make appropriate modifications.
