PM79776: Values in IDESolution ? IDEWorkspace tag becomes cleared at reconnection

Rational Rhapsody 8.0.5
Rational Rhapsody 8.0.6

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Rhapsody overwrite whatever values entered in the following
  fields at reconnecting with MSVS:
  
  a. VS Configuration ? Settings ? Directory (e.g ../../src)
  b. VS Configuration ? Tags ? IDESolution (e.g ../?path to
  solution?)
  c. VS Configuration ? Tags ? IDEWorkspace (e.g ../?path to VS
  workspace?)
  
  The workaround is to have a read-only copy of the configuration
  and use it when working with VS. Note that this problem do not
  happen in Eclipse workflow integration.

  When reconnecting to Visual Studio 2010, Rhapsody overwrites
  the values of the IDESolution and IDEWorkspace tags.
  

Problem conclusion

• A new property called CleanIDETagsWhileDisconnect was added
  in release 8.0.5. If you want Rational Rhapsody to keep the
  values that were previously set for these settings, rather
  than restoring the default values, set the value of the
  property
  VisualStudio::DefaultEnvironments::CleanIDETagsWhileDisconne
  ct to False.
