Issue 6089: running a “Check Model” in Rose you get the following errors (uml2-superstructure-ftf) Source: (, ) Nature: Uncategorized Issue Severity: Summary: When running a “Check Model” in Rose you get the following errors. Of which I am sure you are aware of. But do these errors indicate the absence of the parent element in the particular package or should the Specialize relation be deleted? 12:52:41| [Check Model] 12:52:42| Error: Unresolved reference from Package "Profiles" 12:52:42| to Item with name ::Constructs::Packages 12:52:42| by Dependency "<unnamed>". 12:52:42| Error: Unresolved reference from Package "Profiles" 12:52:42| to Item with name ::Constructs::Classes 12:52:42| by Dependency "<unnamed>". 12:52:42| Error: Unresolved reference from Package "Collaborations" 12:52:42| to Item with name ::Deleted::Infrastructure_v069 (old)::Core 12:52:42| by Dependency "<unnamed>". 12:52:42| Error: Unresolved reference from Package "InternalStructures" 12:52:42| to Item with name ::Deleted::Infrastructure_v069 (old)::Core 12:52:42| by Dependency "<unnamed>". 12:52:42| Error: Unresolved reference from Package "CompositeStructures" 12:52:42| to Item with name ::Deleted::Infrastructure_v069 (old)::Core 12:52:42| by Dependency "<unnamed>". 12:52:42| Error: Unresolved reference from Class "ActivityEdge" 12:52:42| to Item with name Logical View::UML::Behavior::Use Cases::ExtensionPointReferenceableElement 12:52:42| by Generalize "<unnamed>". 12:52:42| Error: Unresolved reference from Class "OutputPin" 12:52:42| to Item with name Logical View::UML::Infrastructure::Core::Foundation::Classifiers::TypedElement 12:52:42| by Generalize "<unnamed>". 12:52:42| Error: Unresolved reference from Class "Message" 12:52:42| to Item with name Logical View::UML::Behavior::Use Cases::ExtensionPointReferenceableElement 12:52:42| by Generalize "<unnamed>". 12:52:42| Error: Unresolved reference from Class "Type" 12:52:42| to Item with name Logical View::InfrastructureLibrary::Core::Constructs::Type 12:52:42| by Generalize "<unnamed>". 12:52:42| Error: Unresolved reference from Class "State" 12:52:42| to Item with name Logical View::UML::Behavior::Use Cases::ExtensionPointReferenceableElement 12:52:42| by Generalize "<unnamed>". Resolution: Revised Text: Actions taken: August 9, 2003: received issue March 9, 2005: closed issue Discussion: I verfied each of these errors . It turns out that these are all references – whether they are dependencies or generalizations -- to model elements that no longer exist in the metamodel (although each of them existed at some point in the evolution of the metamodel). They are due to bugs in the tool used to generate the metamodel which did not do a proper clean-up when the reference elements were eliminated. They do not affect the generated XMI and, hence, no change is required. Disposition: Closed, no change End of Annotations:===== Subject: RE: FW: Questions and Comments?
