Documentation tool in Rational Rose

hi guyz...
I am using Rose 2000 for my projects modelling. For one of my project, I have typed pagefull of paragraphs for each of my use cases and actors in Rose. After designing classes and interfaces, when I generate documentation through rose, it only gives me the specs. of what I have written for my classes and their members. All of my work and specs written for use cases and actors got vanish. Anyone of you plz shed some light on it!!
Raheel.

What gives you the idea that something else would happen? Not saying it shouldn't but are you just assuming this how it should work or what?
IMHO Rose sucks a big fatty.

UML Modeling / Reverse Engineering Tool: Rational Rose orSELECT?

Can anyone comment on the relative strengths and weaknesses of the Forte
modeling / reverse engineering tools from Rational and SELECT? A brief
discussion of tools for reverse engineering Forte applications appeared in
June '98, but it was not clear how these products compared.

What version (or build) of UML are you using? You can find out by going Tools->Module Manager, find a uml module under UML category, right click on the module and bring up Properties, build number is listed under "Expert" section. What's your system platform? JDK?
In step 9, is the target uml project selected? Do you have other uml projects open at the same time?

Re: Rational Rose product and Forte

We use Forte 3.0 with Rational Rose 4.0 since more than one year on a
medium size project (10 developers). I have not tried Rose98 with Forte,
so what I have to say may or may not apply to Rose98.
In general I am very satisfied with the Forte support of Rose. The code
generation facilities are sophisticated. For example from one attribute
in Rose you can generate a virtual attribute and the corresponding get
and set methods which implement the virtual attribute. You can even
change the naming conventions (how to generate the name of get and set
methods). You can also model all components of a Forte application like
interfaces, events, eventhandlers, constants, domain types etc.
Since access to the Forte repository is difficult, Rose does not read
from or write to the repository. Instead you must export a plan as a
.pex file, regenerate the plan from Rose and reimport the generated file
into Forte. Rose correctly preserves the code that you have written as
well as other information like GUI layout etc. Nevertheless this process
is a bit tedious and prone to errors.
Rose can import a Forte .pex and produce a model from it ("reverse
engineering"). This works O.K. but I use it only on small prototypes
that I developed in Forte to get a "first cut" of a model. The analyzer
has only a few global options (for example whether you want to model
object-valued attributes as associations or as attributes). In addition
it names all attribute types and method parameters with fully qualified
class names so that your methods tend to have very long signatures like
Add(input source:Framework.IntegerData):Framework.IntegerData
instead of
Add(source:IntegerData):IntegerData
On the other hand Rose generates correct Forte code if you use the short
form in your model. So I use Rose mainly for forward generation.
I find the combination of Rose with Forte very valuable, mostly because
Forte does not allow a convenient documentation of plans, classes and
attributes.
If you have additional questions, I will be happy to answer them.

I'm having the same problem. The last version of Forte known to work with Rose is Forte 3.0, but I can't find that version for download.
Let me know if you've found any other solution.

Rational Rose TopLink Integration

I'm about to start a new project hosted on OAS and looking for Object-Relational Mapping Tools.
I want to follow a Model Driven Architecture (MDA) methodology, using UML as the master definition of the persistent model.
The questions I need to know about Oracle TopLink is as follows :-
i) Does a project generated from Rational Rose work with Oracle TopLink
ii) Does Oracle offer an alternative modelling tool.
ii) Does Oracle TopLink provide an incremental DDL generation tool, i.e. only generating alter statements to existing schema
Many thanks
Pat

Sapna,
There was a earlier post regarding this topic - perhaps you'd like to review that?

Reverse engineering with Rational Rose

Is anybody using the above?
If so, have you developed any scripts to facilitate updating the Rose model,
and which you'd be willing to share? Or perhaps discuss jointly writing
same?
Ideally, there would be an Fscript to facilitate exposting Forte projects,
and a Rose script to facilitate import.
TIA,
Eric

Eric,
As part of tool evaluation for modeling, We evaluated Rational Rose 98i . We
were able to import forte pex files into Rose model.
We had no problems with reverse engineering but there were problems related to
round trip engineering.
Since Rational Rose 98i did not have a repository based solution for
configuration management, it was quite a task to keep the model in sync with
multiple users updating it. However, I believe you can use Microsoft Source
safe for configuration management though we did not try this.

Rational rose and LabVIEW

I'm in the preliminary design stage of a task and I'm debating whether to use Object-Oriented design or Structured Analysis. I'm using LabVIEW with TestStand to control/test quite a bit of hardware (test equipment, I/O cards, VME, VXI, GPIB, ethernet, etc). The UML tool I have available is Rational Rose. Any thoughts/guidance?

Hi MrBean,
Although I'm no expert in the different design
paradigms, and in particular with relationship to Rational Rose (which
I have limited experience with), I would most likely recommend
Structured Analysis over Object-Oriented based mainly on the fact that,
at present, LabVIEW is not an Object Oriented programming language.
Structured Analysis provides more of a "how and in what order are
things done" viewpoint (with its Functional, Data, and Dynamic
viewpoints), and seems like a well suited design method for use with
LabVIEW and TestStand.
Hope those thoughts help MrBean, have a great weekend!

Rational rose reverse engineer bug?

I have a problem to do reverse engineering via rational rose enterprise edition of 2002 on windows XP for my existing java project. If a class has multiple implementations, only the first inherit relationship will be shown. For example, if class A implements interface B, interface C and interface D. the rose will only shows class A has an inherit relationship with interface B. There is no relationship will be shown between class A and interface C and D but actually class A also implements them.
Anyone can help me find out what is wrong?

In rose:
Tools -> Java/J2Ee -> Reverse Engineer and then you set the classpath to what you want to reverse.

Jdev VS Rational Rose

Good day,
I have been looking for a document comparing Oracle's JDev against the IBM's Rational Rose. A customer is keen on both IDE's I would like to position Jdev better. I know its not easy to find such documentation, I have looked in compete.us.oracle.com and in the IBM website with no luck, this is probably a shot in the dark, but If any one has some light regarding such documentation please reply
Kind Regards
Thabo

And by the way Rational Rose is a dead product - http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/rational/products/rose/
"IBM announces the withdrawal of the Rational Rose XDE product family
However, the Rational Rose components will continue to be supported and will be re-packaged into a new set of offerings"

Oracle 9i JDeveloper & Database & jdk 1.4 & Rational Rose 2002

I am not sure if this is the place to ask these types of questions, but i am goin to ask anyway
Here is my situation, I am doing a project with Rational Rose UML model. The program is written in Java, I wanted to use Rational Rose 2002 for UML model, JDeveloper for coding and Oracle Database
1. After i downloaded Oracle 9i JDeveloper, the program said its certified for JDK1.3.1_02, is it safe to use JDK1.4.1_1 with it?
2. Can i use 9i JDeveloper with Oracle 8i Database or its best to use 9i JDeveloper with Oracle 9i Database?
3. Since Rational Rose 2002 only has Oracle 8 dataType, should i use Oracle 8i with it? or Oracle 9i will work anyway?
Please help and email me at [email protected]

1. To run JDeveloper use jdk1.3 but you can use it to develop applications with jdk1.4
2. You can use Oracle9i JDeveloper with Oracle8i.
3. Oracle9i will probably work, but rational might not be able to take advantage of the latest features of the database. Check out the UML capabilities of JDeveloepr.

How to integrate Rational Rose with JBuilder?

Is there anything like Rational Rose under UNIX platform?

hi,
i am looking for an application like Rational Rose that supports UML design.
any suggestions?
thanks a lot.

Yes, Rational Rose.

Modeling Data warehousing elements in Rational Rose

Hi
I am working in Datawarehousing project. we are using Oracle warehouse builder 9i and Oracle express 6.3.4.
Warehouse builder: WIn2000
Express: SUnsolaris
Database: oracle 8.1.7
can i model the datawarehousing elements in Rational rose...
because Datawarehousing and OLTP are going in parallel. we would like to know the changes done in OLTP tables.Suppose if any change happens in OLTP table, i will have to estimate the effort of ETL work. Is there any way modelling can be done for Datawarehousing elements with OLTP tables.
your inputs are welcome.
Thanks
narasimha.

Narasimha,
Although I we are working on a metadata integration solution that will also accomodate Rational Rose users, at the moment I would strongly suggest that you do the warehouse modelling in OWB.

Hi akhil,
If I have understood you rightly, then <b>Microsoft Visual SourceSafe</b> is the tool that you are looking for. It is used for maintaining documents along with their versions and all details on the intranet. The users need to have proper permissions to log in into it.
For more details, visit the following links:

ERD & Database documentation tool

Hello All:
I am looking for a ERD & Database documentation tool for documenting my Databases. The tool should ideally do the following.
1. ERD
2. Database Documentation
3. Capability to do reverse engineering
I want to evaluate Oracle Designer, Ervin and the one from TOAD. Please let me know some other good tool that I should evaluate. Thank you so much.
-- BMP

Do the following:
SELECT DISTINCT object_type
FROM all_objects;
SELECT DISTINCT index_type
FROM all_indexesIf you see anything that isn't vanilla stick with Oracle Designer.
