PK99265: DOORS CRASHES WHEN RUNNING THE SCRIPT BELOW ON A MODULE: STRING FUNC1(ATTR__ ATTRREF)

IBM Rational DOORS version 9.3.0.4

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• logged as a defect with CR TLOG#54296
  

Local fix

• As a workaround I would suggest passing the Object and attribute
  names as separate paramaters e.g.
  ================
  string func1(Object o, string attr)
  {
     string s = richTextWithOle(o.attr);
  
     return s;
  }
  
  bool func2(Object o, string attr)
  {
  
     string s1 = func1(o, attr);
     string s2 = func1(o, attr);
  
     return (s1 == s2);
  }
  
  Object o = current();
  string attr = "Object Text"
  
  print func2(o, attr);
  ===============
