IBM® Rational® Rhapsody® has
various predefined profiles available, such as AUTOSAR and UPDM, which
you can add to a new or existing project.
You can use the following types of profiles:
- Predefined profiles, such as AUTOSAR and UPDM,
which you can add to a new or existing project. To add predefined
profiles to a new project, select the profile when you create your
project. Also, if you decide you want to apply a profile to your project
after you have created it, you can add a profile manually; see Adding a profile manually.
For a list of the available profiles, see Predefined and customized profiles.
- You can use profiles in the same ways that you
use other packages; for example, you can use configuration management
tools with profiles and exchange profiles between users.
- Add On product profiles, which require an additional
license, are automatically added when you use the associated add-on
product. You can also add these profiles from the workspace by selecting .
By default, all profiles apply to all packages that
are available in the workspace. To associate existing profiles with
new annotation models, use these properties, which you can find under General::Profile:
- AutoCopied specifies a comma-separated
list of physical paths to profiles that are automatically copied into
new projects when they are created. By default, this property is an
empty string.
- AutoReferences specifies a comma-separated
list of physical paths to profiles that are automatically referenced
by new projects when they are created. By default, this property is
an empty string.
You can specify packages in the property values.
The paths can be disks, networks, or Universal Naming Conventions
(UNC), and the extension.sbs is optional. If the Rational Rhapsody annotation
cannot find a specified profile, it generates an error message.
You can use profiles in the same ways that you use
other packages; for example, you can use configuration management
tools with profiles and exchange profiles between users.
Note: When you open an existing project in a newer
version of Rational Rhapsody,
the system automatically adds a compatibility profile in the Settings
folder.
