About this task

To set up Rational Rhapsody ReporterPLUS:

Procedure

  1. Make a copy of theRational Rhapsody.ini file that is located in the installation folder (for example, <Rational Rhapsody installation path>\Rhapsody730).

    You should now have a Rhapsody.ini file and a Copy of rhapsody.ini file.
  2. Rename Copy of rhapsody.ini file to OriginalRhapsody.ini.

    Having this file ensures that you can return to the original state of the rhapsody.ini file when needed.
  3. Add the following lines within the [General] section of the Rhapsody.ini file:
    [ReporterPLUS]
    EnableLoadOptions=TRUE
    LoadElementReferences=TRUE
  4. After you save your changes to the Rhapsody.ini file, move it to your System (or Windows directory).
    Note: If you use Copy and Paste, be sure to delete the file from where you copied it from.
  5. Restart Rational Rhapsody to ensure that the changes take effect.
