Modeling classes as Rational Rhapsody types

IBM® Rational® Rhapsody® can either model certain classes as types or use the MFC type library.

Procedure

  1. On the Misc tab of the Reverse Engineering Advanced Options window, click Add to open the Add (wild-card expression) window for types.
  2. Select the appropriate radio button:
    • Add Type to add the class as a type
    • Add Library to add the class as an MFC type definition
  3. If you selected the Add Type radio button, type the name of a single class or a wildcard expression to match the names of several classes to be imported in the Type box. For example, OM* specifies that all classes that start with "OM" are types.

    Or, if you selected the Add Library radio button (applicable to Rational Rhapsody Developer for C++ only), select MFC from the Library list.
    Note: Currently, Rational Rhapsody Developer for C++ recognizes only one predefined type library (MFC) with only one class (CString). You can add more classes in the CPP_ReverseEngineering::MFC::DataTypes property of the current configuration. Alternatively, you can create new library metaclasses, like MFC, in the factory.prp and site.prp files.
