PM54317: When performing various CARMA/Endevor element functions, message at top of function dialogue panel indicates wrong element.

Rational Developer for System z 8.5

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When performing CARMA/Endevor 'custom' functions, the message at
  the top of the function dialogue screen indicates the first
  element that user worked on during that CARMA connection.  Here
  is a copy of the message that I'm referring to:
  
  Specify the following parameters to perform Retrieve Element on
  xxxxxxxx.
  
  In this case, xxxxxxxx, was the first element that I worked with
  during current CARMA connection, not the element I am currently
  working with.  The 'Results for Retrieve Element' screen also
  displays the same (wrong) element.  This is a problem with the
  messages only, the correct element is processed.
  
  This problem only seems to occur when CARMA user connects using
  the CARMA connection but does not explicitly connect to the CA
  Endevor SCM RAM.  User drills down and right-clicks on element
  -? Custom -? Retrieve/Generate/............
  

Local fix

Problem summary

• Connecting to CARMA after having performed custom actions on a
  previous connection could cause the actions to not properly
  update with the newest element.
  

Problem conclusion

• Fixed the custom action menu to properly update with selection.
