Workspaces
Description:
This version of Rational System Architect introduces a new concept called
workspaces. A workspace is an isolated area within an encyclopedia, within
which users may create versions of their architecture, such as as-is (baseline)
and multiple to-be (target) architectures. A workspace is essentially a layer
within an encyclopedia. Workspaces are
managed within the Rational System Architect Encyclopedia Manager (SAEM). Users may choose
the workspace that they are working in, and work away as they normally would
within Rational System Architect. They may modify, add, and delete artifacts without affecting other workspaces. Multiple child
workspaces can be created from the same parent baseline. Users may easily
switch between workspaces, and compare workspaces, and merge and extract
information between workspaces. You are not required to use workspaces – you
may use Rational System Architect as you have in the past, and not turn
workspaces on. There is only one root workspace; all other workspaces inherit
from the parent baseline.
Benefit:
Workspaces
addresses the need to manage versions of enterprise architectures, enabling you
to build as-is (baseline) and multiple to-be (target) architectures. Workspaces
offer detailed traceability, differencing – comparing the original architecture
with the evolved architecture, and merging of information between workspaces.

help for more details on how to create and manage workspaces.
Description:
Relationships between definition types in Rational System Architect can be navigated in both directions by the reporting system; however, a set of properties holding values of the relationship has only been able to be editable on one side of the relationship – in one of the definitions; to have the property set viewable in both definitions of the relationship, users needed to make both properties readonly and input values via an owning matrix. For example if an Application definition has a list of Servers, and a Server definition has a list of Applications, then you needed to make both lists readonly and enter values via an owning Application-to-Server matrix; or you could put the list of Servers property in an Application, but not show a list of Applications in the Server definition, and so forth.
Users frequently wanted to be able to add information into this type of relationship in either definition. To force them to enter values in a matrix made them feel that they were ‘going around the world’ to enter information into the tool. Mirrored properties (aka, symmetric properties) solve this usability issue. A new keyword “Mirrors” has been added to the SAPROPS/USRPROPS language. Mirrored properties are enforced consistently through all the user interface facilities – you may add information to either definition, or to the matrix, and all other places where the information is represented are automatically updated.
Benefit:
Ease of use on
inputting information into the tool.
How to Review:
The Mirrors
command has been added to many definition relationships in the tool. For
example, open up a Business Goal definition, and note that it has a list of
Strategies that it is related to. Note that you can add a Strategy to a
Business Goal, and a Business Goal to a Strategy definition, and either side is
updated when you do. Select View, Matrix Browser, and open a Strategy to
Business Goal matrix. Note that the matrix is updated based on information you
have put into either definition type.
To use the
Mirrors command in your usrprops customization consult the help topic Mirrors
within the help book: Rational System Architect – General, Customizing Rational
System Architect, Extending the Metamodel with USRPROPS, Keywords,
Mirrors.
Description:
The Views Explorer was introduced to Rational System Architect in V11.0. It features the ability to categorize information into Views which are either built by the user by dragging and dropping artifacts into the View (Static View) or by the end user creating a View that is updated based on the running of one or more reports (Dynamic View). The new Views Explorer also provided other new features, such as the ability to sort items in the tree by case sensitive/insensitive and ascending/descending order. However, many of the features of the existing, ‘classic’ Explorer were not yet incorporated into the Views Explorer and the performance of the Views Explorer wasn’t as good as the ‘classic’ Explorer. For this release, all functionality of the ‘classic’ Explorer has been put into the Views Explorer, and the Views Explorer has been made the default explorer. Note: users may still use the ‘classic’ Explorer (by selecting View, Classic Explorer) and change it back to being the default by an ini setting (select Tools, Session Options, and set the EnableClassicExplorer option).
Benefit:
Users gain all
the benefits of both Explorers, and will be less confused by the appearance of
two explorers to choose from.
How to Review:
The Views
Explorer is the new default explorer. It is simply referred to as the Explorer
from now on. If it is not open, you may open it by selecting View,
Explorer.
Description:
Previously,
the Explorer (Classic) had three refresh modes (on, off, or refresh only items
in view) that were set in the .ini file. By default, auto-refresh was set to
off to maximize multi-user performance on the network. Many users did not know
there was an option to select the refresh preferences of the Explorer, leading
new users to wonder why their changes weren’t seen in the Explorer. Now, new
users can make a conscious decision on the auto-refresh selection, as a dialog
box appears upon the first operation that asks them what mode they’d like to
work in. Afterwards, they may change the setting as they have in the past, via
the ini file settings (select Tools, Session Options, and in the System
Architect Session Options Editor, make selections to the choices BrowserAutoRefresh and
BrowserFullRefresh. These choices now apply to the Views Explorer (now the
default) as well as the Classic Explorer. Note: to set the Views Explorer to
autorefresh only items in view, turn BrowserAutoRefresh "on" and
BrowserFullRefresh "off".
Benefit:
Refresh of the
Explorer is an important aspect of working in a repository, and the user should
be aware of their options and be able to easily change those options at any
time. For example, the Views Explorer can contain report-based Dynamic views.
The end user should have full knowledge and capability to decide whether the
reports that refresh those views are run every time someone on the network
makes a change.
How to Review:
You should be
presented with a dialog asking you what refresh mode you’d like to work in when
you use Rational System Architect the first time after installation.
Afterwards, you may select Tools, Session Options and change the settings for
the Views Explorer.
Description:
The Reference By facility has been made easier to access and use. The Reference By facility can be an important and often-used feature when trying to understand how pieces of an enterprise architecture fit together. Previously, users could access the Reference By facility by right-mouse clicking on an artifact in the Explorer (Browser) or clicking a References button in the top right of any definition. Now the References window has been made dock-able and resizable. Users may open it (through the previous methods or also by selecting View, References), and then utilize that open References window to quickly look up the references to any artifact anywhere – clicking on any symbol on any diagram, for example, will refresh the Reference By window with the references to the symbol and its definition.
Benefit:
Users may now
leave the References window open and utilize it within the workflow of their
modeling, quickly getting references to any artifact by simply clicking on the
artifact in the Explorer (Browser) or on an open diagram.
How to Review:
Right-mouse
click on an artifact in the Explorer (Browser), or click the References button
in the top right of any definition, or select View, References to open the
References window. Dock it. Then select any artifact in the browser or open a
diagram and select any symbol on it.
Description:
Rational System Architect’s user interface has been streamlined for point-click-explore interaction. Selecting an item in the Explorer (Browser), Diagram workspace, Matrix Editor, or Search Results window refreshes information in the Properties window, Diagram Preview window, and References window. Previously, only a few of these combinations were supported – for example, clicking on an artifact in the Explorer (Browser) updated the Properties window and Diagram Preview window, but not the References window, and clicking on a Symbol on a diagram or in a Matrix did not update any of these windows. The Search Results window is new. Also, previously users could view the Diagram Preview window or the Properties window, but not at the same time – it was one or the other as the information was put into the same window; these windows have now been split up and made dockable so you can view both at the same time (important when you want to see a diagram’s pictorial preview and its properties).
Benefit:
Seamless
interaction and display of information in front of you as you model.
How to Review:
Open the
References window (select View, References, for example) and dock it,
open the Search Results window (search on an text string in the Search utility
in the toolbar) and dock it, open the Properties window (select View,
Properties), and open the Diagram Preview window (select View, Diagram Preview). With the
windows all open, click on artifacts in the Explorer (Browser) or open a
diagram and click on symbols within it and notice how the information in the
open windows changes to reflect the artifact you’ve selected. Open a matrix
from the Matrix Browser (View, Matrix Browser), and click on artifacts within
its rows or columns, and notice that the information in the open windows is
also updated as you click and select.
Description:
The Explorer (Browser) Properties window previously was read-only. It enabled users to get a quick look at the property values of any artifact as they selected it in the Explorer (Browser). Now, the Properties window allows users to edit properties that are textual in nature, once they put it into Edit mode by clicking on the Edit button in the top of the window. It also enables easy access to the regular definition dialog via a button at the top of the Properties window named Advanced Edit.
Benefit:
Quick access and
editing of information in the repository. The Properties window is beginning to
serve as an alternative to the regular definition dialog (informally referred
to as the ‘SAEdit’ dialog).
How to Review:
Open the
Properties window (select View, Properties for example, or click on the Show Properties
Window button in the main toolbar). Click on any artifact in the Explorer
(Browser). View its information in the Properties window. Notice there are
groups in the Properties window that may be expanded by clickin on the ‘+’ mark
to the left – these groups represent tabs in the normal ‘SAEdit’ definition
dialog. Click on the Edit button in the top of the Properties window. Notice
how you may place your cursor into textual properties for the artifact.
Properties that are ListOf or OneOf other definitions are not yet supported.
Next, click on the Advanced Edit button at the top of the Properties window –
notice how it opens up the normal ‘SAEdit’ definition dialog.
Description:
A Search engine has been added to Rational System Architect, enabling you to do quick searches on any text string, to find it within names of artifacts, or any property of an artifact.
Benefit:
Previously, finding
elements in Rational System Architect was cumbersome – you had to go through a
report writing step and had no way to navigate to the item from the output of
the report. Now you may do a quick search to find any text string in the
repository.
How to Review:
The new Search
facility is available within its own toolbar, found amidst the main toolbars
above the diagram workspace. You may type text into the field which by default
reads “Search Text”. Click on the globe icon to select whether to search on All
Objects, Diagrams and Symbols, or Definitions Only. Search results will appear
in their own window, which is dockable.
Description:
Property History dialog has been extended to include all properties of a given definition.
Benefit:
This feature
provides more robust analysis of the history of change to an object.
How to Review:
Click on the
History button at the top of any definition dialog (informally called SAEdit
dialog) in Rational System Architect. Notice that the History dialog is much
bigger than it had been previously – its second column, labeled Property,
provides history of every property in the definition under investigation.
Description:
To support a modernized look and feel, new drawing cursors, symbol handlebars, and toolbar icons have been added to Rational System Architect.
Benefit:
A modernized
look and feel provides a feel good experience for the modeler.
How to Review:
The new look and
feel should be noticeable while drawing in diagrams and in overall use of menus
within the tool.
Description:
Previously, reports run in Rational System Architect didn’t
have an option of being case insensitive. If you ran a report and wanted to
filter it on a text string, you could not specify that it should ignore the
upper or lower case letters of the string. Also, the SA/XT tool provides a
Search engine that uses the Rational System Architect reporting system –
therefore its Search also was case sensitive. The result of this is that if you
were searching or running a report and just looking for a term, not caring
about the upper and lower case aspects of the term, you’d have to run multiple searches
or reports. In this release, a new keyword has been added to the reporting
language, called IGNORECASE.
Benefit:
Reports in Rational
System Architect and searches in SA/XT are now more powerful, in that they can
be made to return results that are not sensitive to the upper or lower case of
the text string you are filtering or searching on.
How to Review:
When creating a
report in the Reporting System (select Reports, Report Generator), create a
report to filter on a property (in the Select Definition Where dialog). Once
created, text edit the report and apply the IGNORECASE command to the Where
line. Consult the help for more specific information and see examples below. In
SA XT, click in the Search facility, click on the Advanced Search button and
notice that the Advanced Search dialog provides you with the ability to turn on
or off case-insensitive search.

Description:
Currently, SVG
is used to represent diagrams, charts, and visualizations produced by the HTML
Generator, the SA/Compare tool, the SA/Publisher add-on, and the SA/XT tool.
Users may now right-mouse click on any SVG item produced by these utilities and
choose to save it to PNG, JPG, or PDF format.
Benefit:
Previously, SVG diagrams,
charts, and visualizations could only be used in the output website environment
generated by these Rational System Architect utilities or add-ons, and could
not stand alone. With this new feature, users can more easily share this
information via emails (as it no longer carries the payload of the Java applet
that was necessary to display the SVG), or quickly embed it into MS Office
documents.
How to Review:
Generate SVG using any of the above-listed tools, right-mouse
click on the output SVG of a diagram or chart, and select Save As PNG, JPG, or PDF
Description:
A new feature of
BPMN diagrams is provided to enable users to auto-arrange a diagram from left to
right.
This algorithm
is in accordance with BPMN standards, where a given diagram starts with a
left-most Start Event and ends with one or more Stop Events.
Benefit:
A user can draw
a diagram in haste, and then invoke this command to make the diagram neater.
Also, a diagram imported into Rational System Architect from a third-party tool
may require rearranging, as there is no current standard for positioning
information of symbols on BPMN diagrams.
How to Review:
With a BPMN diagram open and in focus, select Format, Auto Arrange Left to Right. A diagram with no Start Event will cause Auto-Arrange to display a warning message and then terminate.
Description:
Rational System
Architect has a very strong meta-model customization facility, but all
customizations have had to be done using a scripting language, which is added
to a usrprops.txt file and included in the Files table of each encyclopedia
(adding to and overriding the default metamodel specified via the saprops.cfg file
that is shipped with the product). In this version of the product, a new
graphical approach to customizing the metamodel is provided. Users may now
create new diagram types, definition types, and symbol types, and specify
properties of those types and relationships to each other, within Rational
System Architect’s own graphical user interface, and auto-generate a
usrprops.txt file.
In addition, the
existing functionality of automatically generating a read-only data model of
metamodel items in the repository (diagrams, definitions, or symbols) has been
extended so that items on the generated meta model diagram can be edited to
create metamodel extensions.
Benefit:
Eliminates the
need for learning System Architect’s metamodel scripting language in order to
extend the repository’s metamodel.
How to Review:
1.
Select Tools, Customize Method Support
2.
In the Rational System Architect Properties Configuration
dialog, click on the Advanced button to open the advanced Configure Property
Set window. In the Configure Property Set window, on the bottom right list of
Available Property Sets, find, select, and add the Meta Model Objects choice to
the list of Selected Property Sets on the right. Click OK to close the dialogs
and reopen the encyclopedia for the changes to take effect.
3.
From the Explorer, right-mouse click on the Definitions group
and select New Definition from the popup menu (or Select Dictionary, New
Definition.
4.
Note that you have the following new definition types to
choose from:
·
User Definition
Chapter – subordinate to the User Definition Type; creates tabs.
·
User Definition
Control – subordinate to User Definition type.
·
User Definition
Property – subordinate to User Definition type.
·
User Definition
Type – used to create new Definition types.
·
User Diagram
Control – subordinate to User Diagram Type.
·
User Diagram
Property – subordinate to User Diagram Type; use it to create Properties
of Diagrams.
·
User Diagram
Type – used to create new Diagram types.
·
User File
Fragment – used to include references to other files within the
usrprops.txt, using the #include command. Type the actual file fragment in the
User File Fragment’s Description property and then add it in the proper place
within the User Props File definition.
·
User List – used to
create new Lists.
·
User List Item – used to
create new values within Lists.
·
User Object
Fragment – used to create command fragments such as #ifdef and #endif
statements.
·
User Props File – used to
create new instances of Usrprops.txt files.
·
User Relation – used to
create new relation types.
·
User Symbol
Control – subordinate to User Symbol Type.
·
User Symbol Type – used to
create new Symbol types.
Consult the help for specific details on how to use these
definitions to create the desired usrprops metamodel.
5.
Once you have completed your metamodel customizations by
creating the appropriate definitions above, add them into the User Properties
File definition in appropriate order.
6.
In the Explorer, right-mouse click on the User Properties
File definition instance that you would like to turn into a usprops.txt file,
and select Generate User Prop.... Specify the directory and name of the file
(normally usrprops.txt) that you wish to generate.
7.
Optionally have the tool load the usrprops.txt into the open
encyclopedia’s Files table and reopen the encyclopedia by choosing “Yes” to the
message “Do you want to load the currently generated UsrProps to the currently
loaded Encyclopedia?”.
Once you have created new diagram, definition, or symbol types,
you may create a Metamodel diagram for them.
8.
Create a new diagram of type Meta Model.
9.
In the new diagram, select Draw, Create Meta Model. Select
one of the new definition or diagram types that you have created via the Meta
Model graphical customization facility. Click OK to generate the diagram.
10.
Right-mouse click on any of the new symbols on the diagram
and select Edit Related Definition Type from the popup menu. You will open the
same metamodel customization dialog as listed above, appropriately.
Again, consult
the on-line help for more specifics on this feature. Note: best practice is to
maintain the usrprops customization definitions in a separate encyclopedia from
your working architecture.
Description:
Rational System
Architect has an existing and powerful analytic capability which was not user
friendly. Users could create definitions of type Analytic, and tie a VBA macro
that they had created to run algorithms against repository information on a
global or diagram basis. An analytic carried information about the VBA macro it
represented, and values of parameters that may have been set in the underlying
VBA macro. An analytic could be run by dragging it onto a diagram from the
Explorer (Browser) or opening it and running it if it was running against the
global repository. All of this functionality was powerful but not intuitive to
users and also lacked some functionality (such as ability to remove the affects
of an analytic that had been run or ability to store a grouping of coloring
criteria for reuse, there was no easy way to create a legend on a diagram to
explain the analytic(s) that had been run against it, etc).
New Heat Map,
otherwise called Diagram Visualization, functionality is introduced into this
version. A Heat Map is a term that informally means mapping analytic
information against a diagram to show places of concern using color-coded or
textured icons. In this way you can show ‘hot’ areas; traditionally, red areas
of a diagram were considered ‘hot’; or areas of concern.
New
functionality includes the following:
Benefit:
Analytics is an
important means of understanding the information that the enterprise
architecture holds. The Heat Map manager enables you more precise management of
this information.
How to Review:
View the
Analytic definition to view the new tab of properties for Analytic Depictions.
Create a new Analytic Collection definition and view its properties. With a
diagram open which has at least one Analytic Collection definition specified
for it, select View, Heat Map Manager. View the help for more information.
Description:
The Ministry of
Defence Architecture Framework (MODAF) 1.2 and the NATO Architecture Framework
(NAF) 3 specifications significantly adjust the underlying metamodels of these
two frameworks. Rational System Architect’s existing MODAF support has been
adjusted to support the MODAF 1.2 specification. In addition, a NAF 3 feature
now provides support for the NAF 3 metamodel and work product set.
Benefit:
Support for the
underlying metamodel of MODAF 1.2 and NAF 3 clarifies the use of Resources,
Services, and Capabilities. These new specifications are mandated for projects
using MODAF and NAF.
How to Review:
The MODAF help has been significantly updated to describe use of the MODAF 1.2.You must have the MODAF add-on to review the MODAF 1.2 support or the NAF add-on to review the NAF 3.0 support.
Description:
The following
new features have been added to the SA/XT product:
Benefit:
SA/XT is the Rational
System Architect sister product that provides a web browser interface to the
repository, enabling enterprise architecture tooling to be rolled out to a
large audience. Improvements are being made to the tool to provide more and
more of the features available in the client tool, Rational System Architect.
How to Review:
You must own the
SA/XT product to review these features.
Description:
Focal Point can
be utilized as a prioritization service within the enterprise architecture
domain, focusing on Application Portfolio management, roadmapping, and
prioritization. You may map any and all types of definitions to Focal Point –
for example, high-level strategies, business objectives,
and goals from the Enterprise Direction diagram (Business Motivation Model),
business processes, services, and applications, Architecture Building Blocks
(ABB’s), and so forth. You may use
attributes of this information as “criteria” in Focal Point to aid decision
making, trade off analysis, and prioritization. Focal Point can be used to create
advanced visualizations and prioritizations of this data, including dashboards
and roadmaps.
The integration
is provided at no charge, but users must own a copy of Focal Point.
Benefit:
The Rational Focal
Point integration gives Rational System Architect users a powerful vehicle for
doing trade-off analysis and prioritization, including such endeavors as Application
Portfolio management and roadmapping.
How to Review:
The SA/Focal Point integration is a no-cost integration; however, you must own the Focal Point product to review this integration.
Description:
SA/Process Integrator was released with SA 11.0.37 SP1. It
enables Visio process modelers to work in their preferred environment but use Business
Process Modeling Notation (BPMN) templates from Rational System Architect which
provide automatic modeling error checking central repository storage for model
and artifact management and reuse. SA/Process Integrator offered an on-line
mode for direct, live interface to the Rational System Architect repository.
This live interface proved problematic and difficult to use. Improvements have
been made to SA/Process Integrator for this release to reduce the complexity of
on-line mode, and support a simplified,
intuitive, file-based interaction between the tools.
This release features a new ability to transfer BPMN diagrams and definitions between Rational System Architect and SA/Process Integrator via SA XML. Once SA data is associated with SA/Process Integrator, a user can edit properties of a shape and click “Choices” to see/select from a list of imported definitions. Also, the SA XML generated by SA/Process Integrator can also be used to transfer a BPMN diagram from one SA/Process Integrator user to another.
Benefit:
The
benefit is simplified, more intuitive interaction between Visio and SA in
SA/Process Integrator -- a tool which in itself enables you to expand the scope
of your enterprise architecture efforts to embrace Visio users.
Description:

After opening a RPT file on a shared drive, SA would default to that
location for the remainder of the session. Once SA was restarted, the Report
path was reset to c:\Program Files\Telelogic\System Architect Suite\System
Architect\Reports. With the improvement, users can now open a RPT file
located on a shared drive (e.g. s:\Transfer\reports) and have SA use it on
subsequent starts. |

In
versions of SA from 10.4 onward, System Function names were not centered
(both horizontally and vertically) like they were in SA 10.1.11. This was
true even if the alignment was set to center in Symbol Format, Text Position.
Therefore the level number and the prefix caused the system function names to
difficult to read. With the fix, System Function names are centered (both
horizontally and vertically) and the level number and the prefix do not
overlap with the system function name. |

In
DoDAF ABM, the generation of IERs from leaf and parent level Activities was
not generating Information Exchanges as valid during the first generation
(both for leaf and for parent level activities), and was replacing the valid
flag status of existing Information Exchanges. Now generation of IERs from
leaf and parent level Activities generates Information Exchanges as valid
during the first generation (both for leaf and for parent level activities),
and does not replace the valid flag status of existing Information Exchanges. |

help, to be more specific of how to provide a lst file. To wit: HTML list
files have to be in a Unicode format. SA will generate and accept HTML list
files in Unicode. XML files are the same way. The reason for this is to
support non-Western character languages (example - double-byte - Korean,
Japanese, etc.) |

|
SA
crashed if user macro filled symbol color while processing the symbol event
SYM_DESELECTED. This was because the symbol was removed from the selected
list, the event was triggered and then the select count was decremented. The
event actions then caused the select list to be processed, the select count
was 1 and there was no symbol in the select list so SA crashed. |
|
44278 |
4053827 |
Doing
a 'Ctrl-Click' on a symbol in the UML 2 integration portion of SA causes the
definition to open, versus navigating to an associated diagram as in Tau. The
behavior was kept as is since this is the way SA works, but the popup message
was changed to say: "Ctrl+click to edit object." |

When
using the 'Application portfolio' analytic -- dragging and dropping one onto

If
a user that didn’t have permissions to add new DB roles to himself (such as a
user that only has db_datareader and db_datawriter and no server roles)
attempted to add a new DB role to himself, the SAEM feedback indicated that
this option was successful. Yet, the role was not added. The feedback now
indicates a failure to add this role, due to security reasons. |

User
received an error message "Overflow Code: 6" when they tried to
Import OV-2 Diagram from IER Matrix which contained more than 134 operational
nodes in it. The import failed because SA ran past the rightmost boundary of
the diagram being populated. The maximum X-position for any symbol is 32,767.
In this bug, each new symbol was imported and placed to the right of the
symbol prior until symbol #131 exceeded the limit. The fix wraps the symbols,
so that the X-position assigned to symbol #131 is back at the left boundary. |

If
you created a DoDAF OV-01 Highlevel Op. Concept diagram, exported to xml and

If
you had enabled analytic depictions in an Explorer diagram (via usrprops
customization), and you reopened the encyclopedia, the depictions would no longer
show. The depiction/analytic logic for an Explorer diagram differs from other
diagrams due to the unique set of symbol types that can be drawn on it. A fix
was made to the logic for determining if a given symbol has a
depiction/analytic assigned to it. Also, a second bug was fixed, involving
the actual depiction bitmaps. The Explorer assumed that the depiction bitmaps
it needs had already been preloaded into memory. Code was added to ensure
that the bitmaps were indeed preloaded. |

We
should be able to share the "Views" with other users by
distributing the "sa_usrviews.xml" file As per the System Architect
Help if a user creates Panes in a "Views", those can be shared with
other users by distributing the "sa_usrviews.xml" file to them. The
users will need to store the sa_usrviews.xml file in their profiles i.e.,
C:\Documents and Settings\<User_Profile>\Local settings\Application
Data\Telelogic\System Architect and they would be able to see the "Panes
and Choices" made. However, the "Views" are not being able to
be shared across the users. It
looks like it is not just enough to copy the sa_usrviews.xml file to the
other user's profile. The other user also has to set their Audit ID to be the
same as the first user who created the views. However, it is still not
working. The views are not seen.
behavior in all these versions - views not seen, and SA is frozen,
have to kill it. reproduce the bug only if the first user is in administrator
group and the second user is not in administrator group.The workaround is
that basically both the users should be in the same group, or the second user
should be at least in the Power User Group to see the views If both the users
are in administrator group then SA works fine. Basically both the users
should be in the same group. The requirement was to have both Private and
public views in the Views Explorer. |

A

Diagram Utilities, Draw System to System Interface Connections, Draw Only
Embedded Systems in System Nodes), when the System Entities were placed on
the diagram, in some cases they were put into the correct system node, in
some cases the wrong system node, and in some cases just placed in the diagram
drawing area. The System Nodes were also moved from their original position. A
new function had been added in 11.1 to fix other issues (embedded System
Entities were being hidden behind System Nodes and also, System Node symbols
were being enlarged to accommodate System Entity symbols, but they were not
being automatically separated if they were overlapping). However, this new
function was causing nodes to be repositioned incorrectly. Now this function
will only be called if an ini file setting is present. |

SA/XT Supports Editing and Addition of ‘Keyed’ Definitions
Description:
SA/XT now supports
creation and editing of keyed definitions. A keyed definition is one that takes its ‘namespace’ from
another definition type. For example, in UML a Class is ‘keyed’ to its Package;
in data modeling, an Entity is ‘keyed’ to its Model; in DoDAF, a System Entity
is ‘keyed’ to its System Node, and so forth.
There are still
some special cases of
keyed definitions that are not yet
supported, as follows:

General Use of SA |
SA was sporadically freezing when users clicked on a Browse
button to import a file or export to a file using various SA utilities (such
as import/export CSV, import/export USRPROPS, export to an XML file for
reporting, etc). This would happen if a user’s machine was connected in
certain network configurations. When this would happen, users were unable to
end SA from the Windows Task Manager; they would need to reboot the system. |

When a relationship was made between a BPMN Process and Role by
clicking a cell in the Business Process (BPMN) to Role matrix, the appropriate

XSD |
Reversal of an XSD into SA, then generation of that diagram back
out to an XSD caused the information in the XSD to change – classes were
incorrectly renamed. For example, importing XSD file containing class A (with

System Architect V11.2
Improvements
and Fixes Provided with V11.2
I.
IMPROVEMENTS PROVIDED IN SA V11.2
Telelogic System
Architect® V11.2 features the following improvements:
·
IBM “Bluewashing” of the System Architect family of products
·
Support for Ports in System Architect’s Native UML Functionality
·
Report Generator User Interface for Sorting
·
Improved Spell Checker in System Architect
·
SA/XT Usability Improvements
Description:
The System Architect family of
products has been “bluewashed” so that all products are now branded with IBM
logos and colors, and all code reviewed to ensure it conforms to IBM legal
standards on the right to ship the code.
Description:
You are now able to
model Ports in the UML 1.x support provided natively in System Architect. A
port represents a connection point for an interface to a class. It is used to
specify the realized and/or Required interfaces of a class. The port symbol
has been added to UML Class diagrams, so that you may place port symbols on a
Class, and then add Required and or Realized Interface symbols on the Port of
the class.
Benefit:
Ports were an important new
feature of the UML 2 specification.
How to
Review:
Create a Class diagram in System
Architect’s UML 1.x support. Draw a Class symbol on the diagram. Notice that
you can select a Port symbol from the toolbar and attach a Port symbol to a
Class. You may open the Port symbol definition, and specify Required and
Provided Interfaces for the Class within the Port definition. They are
represented on the diagram by circular (for Provided interfaces) or cupped (for
Required interfaces) lollipop symbols. You may also select a Port Link line
from the toolbar to connect related Ports on different Classes – signifying
what Class provides an Interface to another Class that requires it.
Description:
A new user interface is
available in the Report Generator to enable you to sort the order in which
properties of a report are published, and specify whether they can be in
descending order, and case sensitive or insensitive.
Benefit:
Users now have better ability to
control the output of reports.
How to
Review:
In Report Generator, select a
definition type to generate a report on, and click Properties to Print. In the
Properties to Print dialog, notice that there is now a Properties to Sort grouping at the bottom of the dialog.
Description:
A new spell checker has been
added to System Architect, replacing the previous one.
Benefit:
The new spell checker has more
options than the previous spell checker.
How to
Review:
Select Tools, Spellchecker
Options.
Description:
·
Improved Banner and Color Scheme
·
Tabs in the Definition Editor for SA/XT
Benefit:
All features were added to
improve the user experience with SA/XT.
How to
Review:
All features may be readily seen
in the output of SA/XT SVG diagrams and edit sessions.

Users
were unable to Merge and Extract using a large LST file. SA would hang. In
addition, trying to do an XML Export of Definitions and their Subordinates in
the Samples encyclopedia caused SA to hang. This was due to a set of 66
definitions and their subordinates forming an endless loop. A counter has been placed onto SA's bottom
status bar so that a user can see that SA is working and not hanging. |

User-defined
symbols were not keeping their format symbol style, in particular the
symbol's size. The problem only happened when using DEPICT LIKE for user
defined symbols. A new setting has
been created in the SA2001.INI, named UseSymbolFormatStyleSize=Y.
If 'Y', then the symbol size the user specified in the style sheet will be
applied to each newly drawn user-defined symbol, instead of the size taken
from USRPROP's "depict like". |

When
using UML 2 diagrams in SA, pressing the X and ? buttons in the color pallet
dialog were causing System Architect to freeze. |

7025204 |
Drawing
a message line on a UML 2 Sequence diagram by using the shortcut to single

System Architect V11.1 with SP1
Improvements
and Fixes Provided with 11.1 with SP1
I.
IMPROVEMENTS PROVIDED IN SA V11.1 with SP1
System Architect
V11.1 with Service Pack 1 (SP1) features the following improvements:
In addition, a number of client-reported
issues were fixed (see list below), and internal
issues were addressed for SA/Process Integrator (not listed here) and the
Welcome Guide (also not listed).
Description:
Improvements have been made to
the AcV-2 Acquisition Programme diagram to make it more flexible to use. The AcV-2
Acquisition Programme diagram is a timeline diagram that enables users to model
Projects and the status of numerous Project properties at various Milestones.
Milestones are represented as pie-like symbols positioned on the project’s
phase bar. Previously there was a lot of coding in place that restricted usage
of the diagram to conform to the MODAF specification. However, later versions
of the MODAF specification have relaxed some of those restrictions. Users may
now work with restrictions turned off, or choose to turn on some of those
restrictions, as described below.
Benefit:
The AcV-2 Acquisition Programme
diagram is now easier to use, and more flexible, allowing you to model Projects
with your own sets of Milestones, not just the MODAF-specified ones. You may
also turn on automatic rules checking if you do wish your users to adhere to
the MODAF-standard Milestones.
How to
Review:
You need the MODAF paid option
to System Architect to use this feature. In a System Architect for MODAF
encyclopedia, create an AcV-2 diagram, or open an existing AcV-2 diagram from
an existing MODAF encyclopedia.
Description:
An option has been added to the
System Data Exchange (SDX) Generation dialog to generate SDX's based on
existing System Interface lines drawn on SV-1 diagrams.
Benefit:
This enables users to use a
common taxonomy for System Function names without generating invalid SDX’s. For
example, common System Functions such as Air
Search and Active Search could be
performed by multiple radar systems – an APG-79
radar System Entity (on board an F-18
Hornet System Node), and a SPY-1
radar System Entity (on board a Cruiser
System Node). With previous SDX generation, SDX’s would be generated for all
combinations, thereby incorrectly relating an APG-79 radar with a SPY-1
radar when System Interface lines were automatically drawn on an SV-1 diagram.
To workaround this, users would need to name their System Functions specific to
the System Entity that used them – for example, Air Search by APG-79 Radar, etc. With the new option, SDX’s are
only created based on System Interface lines drawn.
How to
Review:
Description:
A number of options have been
added to DoDAF ABM Reports.
Benefit:
How to
Review:
·
With the DoDAF ABM version of System Architect, select Reports, DoDAF (ABM) Reports, System Data
Exchange Matrix (SV-6). Select a Scope
of Diagrams in the upper left-hand
corner. Note that new choices appear to generate based on SI Lines, SNI Lines,
or Both.
·
With the DoDAF ABM version of System Architect, select Reports, DoDAF (ABM) Reports, System Data Exchange Matrix (SV-6), Operational Information Exchange Matrix
(OV-3), or Services Matrix (SV-6b).
Note the Save Settings and Load Settings buttons now available at
the bottom of each respective dialog.

I.
IMPROVEMENTS PROVIDED IN 11.1
System Architect
V11.1 features the following improvements:
Description:
A new SA – Change integration feature has
been introduced into System Architect. It enables you to associate changes to
diagrams and definitions with Change Requests in Telelogic Change. In System
Architect, you can open the new Change History dialog and view all changes to
an object that are associated with a Change Request. Additionally, you can
start the Change web interface from within the Change History dialog in System
Architect.
Benefits:
The linking of
changes to artifacts in System Architect to Change Requests in Change provides
full traceability between what is
changed and why it is changed.
Description:
SVG output for both SA/Publisher and SA/XT
is provided with a number of new usability features. A new Pan & Zoom
feature is provided, which presents a small navigation window that enables you
to zoom in and out to quickly go to any area of the diagram. When you first
open a diagram, the Pan & Zoom window is anchored to the upper right corner
of the canvas area. You can move the window anywhere within the canvas area
(framed by a solid line) but not outside of it. When you resize your browser
window the canvas area and the Pan & Zoom window resize automatically, and
proportionally. In addition, SVG now has new shortcut keys that are deemed more
industry-standard than the previous set. Users may also choose their own
shortcut key mappings using the keymap.xml file.
Benefits:
The Pan & Zoom
provides easier ways to navigate SVG diagrams in SA/Publisher and System
Architect/XT. It provides an intuitive way to pan to any area of a diagram and zoom
in or out with the new Slider, or with the mouse wheel. Previously, zooming in
and out had to be done exclusively with keyboard and mouse combinations. You can
now navigate with the just the mouse, or use new mouse and keyboard combinations.
Additionally, you can customize the keyboard and mouse combinations through the
keymap.xml file that lets you map the keyboard, the keyboard and mouse, or the
mouse wheel to the new navigation features.

symbols, should have a TEXT or DESC element that they could use to store the
name of the symbol or a suitable description of the graphic. Screen readers
use these elements to describe the graphic.
Symbol tool tips are controlled by the title and desc tags in the SVG.

While

following errors: "Failed To simulate Model", "Failed to

"Automation error|Unspecified Error." SA/Simulator was sensitive to
the way the ContinuousReal distribution was set up. For the ContinuousReal
distribution, the values needed to be in increasing value order, the weights
could not be negative, and they needed to sum to a value greater than zero.
The validation of the parameters was only checking that they were all
numeric, and the error based on the tighter constraints (listed above) was
only generated at run time. |

Description:
A new Views
Explorer is available that enables you to categorize diagrams and definitions
within package-like structures. These package-like structures do not offer a
separate namespace; rather, you are categorizing artifacts within the global
namespace of the encyclopedia. You may categorize artifacts using any strategy
that you choose; for example, by project, or by department. Two types of Views
are available: ‘Static Views’ and ‘Dynamic Views’. You may populate ‘Static
Views’ by dragging and dropping diagrams and definitions into them. You may
create ‘Dynamic Views’, whose contents reflect the output of the running one or
more reports. The Views Explorer is optional; by default, the normal Explorer
(formerly called Browser) is presented to you; it is now called the ‘Classic’
Explorer. You may open one or more Views Explorers concurrently.
Background:
Users have
been asking for a way to organize diagrams in a manner which best suits them,
within the global namespace of an encyclopedia. If they had, for example,
hundreds of BPMN Business Process diagrams, those diagrams would all be listed
alphabetically in the All Methods tab under the Business Process grouping. The
only thing they could do to categorize the diagrams was to add a prefix to the
name.

Description:
A new XML
differencing engine has been introduced into System Architect, which will
eventually enable you to perform side-by-side comparisons of the contents of
partitions in an encyclopedia. Its functionality is pertinent to the System
Architect user even before partitions are available – in this version of the
software, you may use the differencing engine to visualize differences between
any set of diagrams – including simple graphical changes to a diagram such as
the moving of a symbol from one version of the diagram to another. Time-based
visualizations are also available, which enable you to track changes based on
the values of a time property in each symbol on the diagram; you may drag on a
time slider to see the diagram change in front of you based on the dates
specified in the diagram’s symbols.
Benefits:
Users need to
understand changes that have been made to different versions of diagrams, even
if the change is as subtle as the moving of a symbol or symbols on a diagram.
Visualizations enable you to do this.
Also, users also
need track changes to different versions of architectures, such as baseline and
target architectures. Partitioning is a feature that will enable you to create
different versions of architectures in the same encyclopedia; the
cross-partition XML differencing engine will enable you to see differences
between partitions, when that functionality is available.

System
Architect support for the Department of Defense Architecture Framework (DoDAF)
has been augmented to support the latest version of the standard – DoDAF 1.5.
System Architect now supports this latest version of the standard in both its
SA/DoDAF and SA/DoDAF
Background:
The US Department
of Defense (DoD) is transforming to a new type of information intensive warfare
known as Net-Centric Warfare (NCW). The idea is to make essential information
available to authorized users when and where they need it. DoDAF 1.5 enables the
DoD’s migration towards NCW; it applies net-centric concepts to DoDAF, and
prescribes using Services within a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA).
Capturing Capabilities and Services within a Service Oriented Architecture
(SOA) are fundamental to realizing the DoD’s Net-Centric Vision.

Drawing
capabilities have now been added to SA/XT. The first two diagram types that you
can draw are the BPMN Business Process diagram and the Organizational Chart.
Drawing is performed in a web browser, with diagrams directly input into the
live repository.
Background:
SA/XT is a sister product to System Architect than enables you to work against the live repository via a pure thin client – simply a web browser. To this point, SA/XT offered ability to view the repository information by either browsing it or running reports against it, and adding/editing repository definition information. Now you can model these first two diagram types via the web browser.

Support for
Version 2.1 of the Unified Modeling Language (UML 2.1) is now available. Please
contact Telelogic Customer Support for specific information on how to enable
and get started with UML 2.1 in System Architect. (Instructions on how to
contact Support are provided in the “How to Review” section below).
The UML 2
modeling engine from Telelogic Tau has been embedded in System Architect, and
its UML 2 metamodel merged into the System Architect enterprise architecture
metamodel. You may now create UML 2 diagrams and definitions in System
Architect, storing this information in the System Architect repository. For the
first time maybe ever, one modeling tool has been integrated inside another
modeling tool. We expect to further harmonize the interface to the UML 2
functionality in upcoming releases to further enhance the experience of the
System Architect user.
You can now
also optionally open the UML 2.1 models that you have built in System Architect
within Tau so that you can use Tau’s full range of application development
capabilities, including design prototyping and simulation, model-driven SOA,
and round-trip code engineering. You must own a licensed copy of Tau to do
this. Furthermore, Tau offers an integration with Telelogic Rhapsody for continued
lifecycle support of systems and embedded design.
System
Architect’s UML 1.x support is still available in the product, so if you have
created models with this support, you may maintain them and start using UML 2.1
when you decide to.
The UML 2.1
support available in System Architect enables you to model using the following
diagram types:

The Integrated Reference Model
Architect add-on to System Architect, which enables you to build models against
the Federal Enterprise Architecture (FEA) Reference Models, has been improved
with changes to existing reports and augmented with additional reports.
a. Improvements to Existing Reports
To coincide with the latest OMB 300
document, released in December 2006, the following changes have been made to
the TRM Report (which users run by selecting Reports, iRMA Reports, TRM
Report):
Also, to coincide with the latest
OMB 300 document, the headings for the other existing columns for Service Area,
Service Category, and Service Standard in the TRM Report that is generated are
now precursored by the words “FEA TRM”.
b. New Set of iRMA Reports,
Sorted by Reference Model (Rather than System)
A new set of FEA Reference Model
reports are available that output information sorted by Reference model. The
reports are available by selecting Reports, iRMA Reports.
i. A New TRM Report is Now Available Named
"TRM by Reference Model"
The TRM by Reference Model report
outputs each TRM Service Area definition, and for each TRM Service Area
definition, specifies its TRM Service Category, and within each Service
Category, its TRM Service Standard definition. Within each Service Standard
definition, it provides a table that lists the following related definitions:
System
--- (first column)
Technology
--- (second column)
Technical
Component (Vendor)
If a particular TRM Service
Standard has no Systems associated with it, then the TRM Service Standard is
not listed in the report.
ii. A New Report Is Available Named
"TRM Report by Reference Model by Technology"
The "TRM
Report by Reference Model, Technology and its Systems" report lists TRM
Service Area, TRM Service Category, and TRM Service Standard, and then outputs
a table that has two columns, titled Technology and System(s). Each row lists a
Technology, with its System(s) in a comma separated list.
iii. A New BRM Report Is Available Named
"BRM by Reference Model"
The BRM by
Reference Model report outputs the name of each BRM Business Area definition,
and for each BRM Business Area definition, specifies its BRM Line of Business,
and for each BRM Line of Business, specifies its BRM Sub-Function. For each BRM
Sub-Function, the report provides each related System definition in a table,
along with its related Technology and Technical Component (with related
Vendor). The "Version" property of each Technical Component is

The
operator 'like' or its syntax is not correctly described in the help
files. The documentation has been
updated on the Comparison Symbols page to include the following: The
"LIKE" operator can be used to filter definitions with properties
that are like (but not exactly the same) as a certain value. This is best
seen with wildcards (*). For example a query : Type = "Entity" and
"Name" like "*t*" will report on all entities that have a
t in the middle of their name. - Customer, Overseas Customer but NOT Room. |

IMPROVEMENTS PROVIDED IN 11.0
Description:
A new Views
Explorer is available that enables you to categorize diagrams and definitions
within package-like structures. These package-like structures do not offer a
separate namespace; rather, you are categorizing artifacts within the global
namespace of the encyclopedia. You may categorize artifacts using any strategy
that you choose; for example, by project, or by department. Two types of Views
are available: ‘Static Views’ and ‘Dynamic Views’. You may populate ‘Static
Views’ by dragging and dropping diagrams and definitions into them. You may
create ‘Dynamic Views’, whose contents reflect the output of the running one or
more reports. The Views Explorer is optional; by default, the normal Explorer
(formerly called Browser) is presented to you; it is now called the ‘Classic’
Explorer. You may open one or more Views Explorers concurrently.
Background:
Users have
been asking for a way to organize diagrams in a manner which best suits them,
within the global namespace of an encyclopedia. If they had, for example,
hundreds of BPMN Business Process diagrams, those diagrams would all be listed
alphabetically in the All Methods tab under the Business Process grouping. The
only thing they could do to categorize the diagrams was to add a prefix to the
name.

Description:
A new XML
differencing engine has been introduced into System Architect, which will
eventually enable you to perform side-by-side comparisons of the contents of
partitions in an encyclopedia. Its functionality is pertinent to the System
Architect user even before partitions are available – in this version of the
software, you may use the differencing engine to visualize differences between
any set of diagrams – including simple graphical changes to a diagram such as
the moving of a symbol from one version of the diagram to another. Time-based
visualizations are also available, which enable you to track changes based on
the values of a time property in each symbol on the diagram; you may drag on a
time slider to see the diagram change in front of you based on the dates
specified in the diagram’s symbols.
Benefits:
Users need to
understand changes that have been made to different versions of diagrams, even
if the change is as subtle as the moving of a symbol or symbols on a diagram.
Visualizations enable you to do this.
Also, users also
need track changes to different versions of architectures, such as baseline and
target architectures. Partitioning is a feature that will enable you to create
different versions of architectures in the same encyclopedia; the
cross-partition XML differencing engine will enable you to see differences
between partitions, when that functionality is available.

System
Architect support for the Department of Defense Architecture Framework (DoDAF) has
been augmented to support the latest version of the standard – DoDAF 1.5.
System Architect now supports this latest version of the standard in both its
SA/DoDAF and SA/DoDAF
Background:
The US Department
of Defense (DoD) is transforming to a new type of information intensive warfare
known as Net-Centric Warfare (NCW). The idea is to make essential information
available to authorized users when and where they need it. DoDAF 1.5 enables
the DoD’s migration towards NCW; it applies net-centric concepts to DoDAF, and
prescribes using Services within a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA).
Capturing Capabilities and Services within a Service Oriented Architecture
(SOA) are fundamental to realizing the DoD’s Net-Centric Vision.

Drawing
capabilities have now been added to SA/XT. The first two diagram types that you
can draw are the BPMN Business Process diagram and the Organizational Chart.
Drawing is performed in a web browser, with diagrams directly input into the
live repository.
Background:
SA/XT is a sister product to System Architect than enables you to work against the live repository via a pure thin client – simply a web browser. To this point, SA/XT offered ability to view the repository information by either browsing it or running reports against it, and adding/editing repository definition information. Now you can model these first two diagram types via the web browser.

Support for
Version 2.1 of the Unified Modeling Language (UML 2.1) is now available. Please
contact Telelogic Customer Support for specific information on how to enable
and get started with UML 2.1 in System Architect. (Instructions on how to
contact Support are provided in the “How to Review” section below).
The UML 2
modeling engine from Telelogic Tau has been embedded in System Architect, and
its UML 2 metamodel merged into the System Architect enterprise architecture metamodel.
You may now create UML 2 diagrams and definitions in System Architect, storing
this information in the System Architect repository. For the first time maybe
ever, one modeling tool has been integrated inside another modeling tool. We
expect to further harmonize the interface to the UML 2 functionality in
upcoming releases to further enhance the experience of the System Architect
user.
You can now
also optionally open the UML 2.1 models that you have built in System Architect
within Tau so that you can use Tau’s full range of application development
capabilities, including design prototyping and simulation, model-driven SOA,
and round-trip code engineering. You must own a licensed copy of Tau to do
this. Furthermore, Tau offers an integration with Telelogic Rhapsody for
continued lifecycle support of systems and embedded design.
System Architect’s
UML 1.x support is still available in the product, so if you have created
models with this support, you may maintain them and start using UML 2.1 when
you decide to.
The UML 2.1
support available in System Architect enables you to model using the following

The Integrated Reference Model
Architect add-on to System Architect, which enables you to build models against
the Federal Enterprise Architecture (FEA) Reference Models, has been improved
with changes to existing reports and augmented with additional reports.
a. Improvements to Existing Reports
To coincide with the latest OMB 300
document, released in December 2006, the following changes have been made to
the TRM Report (which users run by selecting Reports, iRMA Reports, TRM
Report):
Also, to coincide with the latest
OMB 300 document, the headings for the other existing columns for Service Area,
Service Category, and Service Standard in the TRM Report that is generated are
now precursored by the words “FEA TRM”.
b. New Set of iRMA Reports,
Sorted by Reference Model (Rather than System)
A new set of FEA Reference Model
reports are available that output information sorted by Reference model. The
reports are available by selecting Reports, iRMA Reports.

The
operator 'like' or its syntax is not correctly described in the help
files. The documentation has been
updated on the Comparison Symbols page to include the following: The
"LIKE" operator can be used to filter definitions with properties
that are like (but not exactly the same) as a certain value. This is best
seen with wildcards (*). For example a query : Type = "Entity" and
"Name" like "*t*" will report on all entities that have a
t in the middle of their name. - Customer, Overseas Customer but NOT Room. |

Improvements
and Fixes Provided with 10.7.14
I.
IMPROVEMENTS PROVIDED IN 10.7.14
I. Improved Repository Support
Note that SA will still support the older
repository technology -- SQL Server 2000 and Oracle 9i.
Benefits:
Support for latest versions of SQL Server
and Oracle as our underlying repository technology helps customer with
II. Improved Data Modeling Support for DBMS's
Benefits:
Data Modeling users of
1. Numeric -- The user will be allowed to enter numeric
values. The entered value will be
validated against the Min or Max if specified.
2. Date -- The
user will be allowed to enter valid date values for the locale. The value will be normalized prior to being
stored in the encyclopedia.
3. Time -- The
user will be allowed to enter valid date values for the locale. The value will be normalized prior to being
stored in the encyclopedia.
4. Boolean -- The user will be presented with a checkbox
Note: SA XT Web Services Write capabilities will not be available
in 10.7. This has been done in coordination with the customer who was
requesting it.
Benefits:
SA XT enables scalability of the 'actionable
architecture' through live read and write access of the repository via a web
browser. These new features are part of a continuing effort to add
functionality to the SA XT tool.
IV. Adobe SVG Viewer Replacement
SA is replacing the need for the Adobe SVG
Viewer to view diagrams output with the native SA HTML Generator, and the
optional tools SA Information Web Publisher and SA XT.
This means that any machine that has Java
installed should be able to view the SVG. There
will be no installation of an 'SVG Viewer' required. Note, however, that
users will need to regenerate their SA Info Web Publisher sites to work with
the new SVG viewer.
Benefits:
An SVG Viewer is needed to view diagrammatic
and dashboard output published via SA's native HTML Generator, and the add-on
products SA Info Web Pub and SA XT.
However, Adobe SVG Viewer required an
installation on the client machine, and often times end users didn't have

HTML
report generator was publishing website that did no show hyperlinks to
definitions that were ‘keys’. For
example, when generating HTML reports of a Deployment diagram, the definition
properties of a Component Instance showed a reference to the name of the
Component that is a key for that definition, but it was not being shown as a
hyperlink, so users couldn’t easily navigate to the information about the

In
the Report Generator, if you created a report that asked for a number of
relation types between levels, the XML output was formatted incorrectly. For
example, a report that included a statement "WHERE RELATION = "is
added to", "used by", "is removed from"",
created via the text editor, is a valid report but generated output XML that
was rendered incorrectly. |

Changes to SDX Generation
and SV-4 Auto Balancing in SA DoDAF
A number of issues with balancing and SDX generation in
a. SDX Generation Now Takes
Into Account Splits and Joins of Data Flow Lines
Users are now able to split and join data flow lines on an SV-4 Data
Flow diagram using an
b. SDX Generation from Data
Flows on Parent/Child Diagrams Without Need for Uncles
The only way that users could properly generate SDX’s from SV-4 diagrams
previous to SA DoDAF
SA now generates SDX’s with an understanding that a Data Flow input into
a System Function on a parent diagram that is matched by a same-named Data Flow
input on a child diagram, is the same data flow, and therefore the System
Function from which the Data Flow was output on the parent diagram is related
to a System Function on the child diagram that the Data Flow is input into.
c. Auto-Balancing of Data
Flows on Parent/Child Diagrams
Users are now able to automatically balance SV-4 Data Flow diagrams by
selecting Auto-Balance Child or Auto-Balance Parent from
d. Sa2001.ini SDX Generation Option
3
The new option 3 is based upon option 1 (the current default).
Option 3 handles splits/joins as well as parent/child diagrams, and will
become the new default. If there are any customers using option 2 or the
old option 0 then they will continue to do so. If customers do not like
the new functionality of option 3, they can revert back to option 1 using the
sa2001.ini setting. A key point here is that only the new option 3 will
have logic to handle splits/joins as well as parent/child diagrams. If users
have diagrams upon which they 'brought down uncles' to correctly generate SDX's
in previous versions of the product, they will not be mandated to remove these
uncles. SA 10.6 will ignore these uncle functions and properly generate SDX's
from SV-4 diagrams built with previous version of SA DoDAF

In
SA Catalog Manager, when selecting the Administrator role (either in tree
view or list view), the ‘Delete’ command was provided in the Edit menu or the
