Note regarding customer's model:
This BPM has internal errors with external objects and persistent selections. In
v15.2, these entries are removed using an external editor. For 15.3, it takes two
passes with internal checks to remove these objects. However, the unexpected
exceptions occur with or with these objects present in the model.
Using the customer's BPM, receive an unexpected exception when deleting a process
and then selecting Impact.
To reproduce:
1) open customer's model
2) via the Browser, navigate to

Label : Missing symbols in EAM diagrams after check out
Description :
After checking out an EA model from the repository, a large amount of
symbols are missing from the application archietcure diagrams. Ctrl+shift+Q does
not show any errors.
NCustomer is using a larger XEM to customize his EAM. Shrinked down his sample EAM.
\\neo\CIR\CIRMails\64xxxx\644963
steps to reproduce:
1. open "smal.eam" using the XEM
2. check the "AP Distribution" diagram in Business Functions->IM Business
Functions->AP & Japan
you will see a JPM Flow object between shortcut objects.
3. check in the model
4. check out the model
-> flow is gone.
test as well with customer model "JPM Master Inventory.eam"

Label : RQM performance issues
Description :
Customer get �Unable to uncompress data received from the proxy� when try to
check in from Hong Kong office (PD developer) to the States (proxy server and
repository)
As well customer complains that open such a model takes to long in PD itself.
Steps to reproduce:
1. check in 100MB Model into Repository (Proxy connection via WAN USA) and check
out
-> In customers enviroment they will get error �Unable to uncompress data received
from the proxy�
2. open the 10MB (New_Testing_Process.rqm) RQM model takes ~2 minutes to open. A

PDM with the same size takes less then 1 minute. If you open the 100MB you will see
that it takes very very long to open it (~25 Minutes). This makes it impossible to
efficently work with RQM Models. For instance scroling down or up in the Matix
stops PD and cause ~50% CPU usage for ~1 Minute.

Issue: 644468 10/12/10 Status: Open
Label : Proxy: hangs up if many simultaneous check in's
Description :
When many users check in documents simultaneously, the PD task and proxy
server stops responding. No error message is displayed on client side, PD just
hangs up.
This does not happen when only one user checks in a document at a time.
Repro steps:
1. Start up PD Proxy 15.2 EBF6
2. Start up more than 5 PD instances on 1 or 2 machines
3. Define a new repository definition targeting an ASA 11 database (e.g., cp1250)
via Proxy
4. Open 'Repository Metamodel.oom' example model in each PD instance
5. Renamed model name/code in instances in order to prevent from getting the
message about document already existing in repository
6. Right-click model in each instance and select 'Check In'
7. Once connected to the repository, click OK in the 'Check In ' window
>> Instances start saving the models but tasks are not responding anymore after a
while.
Note from TSE:

Reproduced in PD 15.2 EBF4 and EBF6. The only difference between these buils is you
can see errors in DefaultLogger.log and you don't in EBF6:
fatal - SProxyQueryColumn: unsupported length for SRepCHAR 0
fatal - WriteValue: failure to convert to an OID
[...]
error - OdbcError: [37000] [Sybase][ODBC Driver][SQL Anywhere]Subquery cannot
return more than one row
From what I can see, ASA database doesn't show neither any warning nor error.
There are many insert and select statements in the log then hundreds of sa_server
messages such as:
select
sa_server_messages.msg_id,sa_server_messages.msg_text,sa_server_messages.msg_time,s
a_server_messages.msg_severity,sa_server_messages.msg_category,sa_server_messages.m

Label : PD 15 lost case sensitivity for Sterotypes
Description :
PD 15 lost case sensitivity for Sterotypes. The first letter (lowerer case)
become upper case in the Sterotype list of an object propertie sheet
if the rest of the sterotype name only contains upper case letters.
Worked fine in PD 12.5
Name in XEM -> Name in Propertie Sheet SteroType List
a -> A wrong
aA -> AA wrong
aAA -> AAA wrong
aAa -> aAa right
Workaround would be to use a Upper Lower Case combination for the sterotypes to
keep apart them.
steps to reproduce:
Repro:
1. Create a new CDM
2. Add an XEM
3. Add Metaclass e.g. Entity to the XEM and add two Stereotype "A" and "a" to the
Entity class.
4. Save XEM
5. Add a new Entity to the Model and open the Property-Dialog.
6. If you try to select a Stereotype you will see two times "A" in the dropdown box
but "a" is missing!

Issue description:
Our toptier customer Unibanco is facing the following issue with PowerDesigner
15.2:
From PowerDesigner 15.2, when user chooses Menu - Repository - Connect...,

PowerDesigner connects to huge repository and starts reading folders/models to
build the Repository treeview. Meanwhile, pdshell15.exe process GDI Handles starts
increasing until it reaches 9999. At this moment, PowerDesigner displays the
folders/models inside treeview, but after that, whatever customer does inside PD
IDE, icons from toolbar disappear, and PD IDE behaves like it is out of memory.
From same machine, if customer connects to a very small repository (in development
evironment - Database around 300MB big), GDI Handles reach around 1000 only and
everything works fine.
According to our tests in customer site, the big repository reading leads
pdshell15.exe get out of resources after connecting and reading data into
Repository treeview.
Customer has around 3000 users sharing 2400 machines and this same issue is
happening around 1500 machines. This customer is a bank, so they have very
restrictions to provide us a copy of their repository, due to confidential data.

Label : Sub-activity: Overlapping flows after upgrade 12.5 -> 15.2
Description :
Given: An OOM on PD 12.5 with a decomposed activity and a shortcut of this
decomposed activity on its sub-diagram.
Further, you have flows to other activities on the sub-diagram.
If you open this OOM with PD 15.2, the flow symbols will be confusingly drawn (flow
symbols are overlapping the other activities and each other => difficult to
separate apart)
Steps to reproduce using PD 12.5.0.2419 ESD 26 and PD 15.2.0.3125 ESD 5:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Please open the repro model I have placed in
1) with PD 15.2
You will see following:
- the flow symbols in the sub-diagram are misplaced. This is valid for
a) Activity_3 (contains flows from its own shortcut and other sub-activities),
b) Activity_18 (is a copy of Activity_3 on the same diagram)
c) Activity_26 (generated after copying Activity_18 to ActivtyDiagram_2)
2) with PD 12.5
You will see following:
- the flow symbols in the sub-diagram are well-placed
- you can easily distinguish all the flow symbols on all activities which are
problematic in PD 15.2
a) Activity_3 (contains flows from its own shortcut and other sub-activities),
b) Activity_18 (is a copy of Activity_3 on the same diagram)
c) Activity_26 (generated after copying Activity_18 to ActivtyDiagram_2)

Label : create reference unchecked in merge window
Description :
When creating a reference and applying the model changes to the database,
the merge window detects the change, however this change is not checked.
As a consequence, adding a reference by default will not be applied to the
database.
Steps to reproduce using PD 15.2 ESD 4:

-------------------------------------------------------------
Please find
PDM, APM
generated sql scipts
- incomplete: modify.sql
- complete: modify2.sql
in \\neo\CIR\CIRMails\63xxxx\640300
Please open PDM, apply models to the database against APM (using script, alter
table when possible), or follow the steps below:
1) New PDM PDM_1 (DB2 V9 z/OS)
2) New tables Table_1 (C11 int; check primary, C12 int), Table_2 (C21 int; check
primary, C22 int), Table_3 (C31 int; check primary)
3) Draw a reference from Table_2 to Table_1 (Table_2 will get a new column C11 int,
labeled fk)
4) Save as PDM_1.apm
5) Draw a reference from Table_3 to Table_1 (Table_3 will get a new column C11 int,
labled fk)
6) Select Menu Database -> Apply Model Changes to the database
script generation: modify.sql

using archived model: browse to "PDM_1.apm"
use alter table when possible
=> accept, ok
7) You see that the merge dialog contains a reference to be added, but this
reference is not checked by default
8) Accept it anyway. The resulting SQL expectedly is:
+++++++++++++++++++++++
--==============================================================
-- DBMS name: IBM DB2 Version 9.x for z/OS
-- Created on: 03.Sep.10 17:05:41
--==============================================================
ALTER TABLE TABLE_3

ADD C11 INT;
+++++++++++++++++++++++
=> no reference
9) repeat steps 6 and 7, but then, in the Merge dialog, click on "Comparison
options"
10) Leave the Comparison options window as is, and click on OK to close it again
(without any changes)
11) Now look at the Merge dialog again: it now contains the reference checked by
default. Hit accept and OK and you get:
+++++++++++++++++++++++
--==============================================================
-- DBMS name: IBM DB2 Version 9.x for z/OS
-- Created on: 03.Sep.10 17:06:14
--==============================================================
ALTER TABLE TABLE_3

ADD C11 INT;
ALTER TABLE TABLE_3

ADD CONSTRAINT F_REFERE FOREIGN KEY (C11)
REFERENCES TABLE_1 (C11)
ON DELETE RESTRICT;
+++++++++++++++++++++++
This should be the default result.
You get the same results with other DBMS, e.g. ASE 15.5.

Steps to reproduce
1. Create an empty LDM (LDM1).

2. Define a domain named String as Variable characters (20) in LDM1.
3. Save LDM1.
4. Create a second (empty) LDM (LDM2).
5. Copy domain String from LDM1 into LDM2 by pasting as Shortcut, thus creating an
external shortcut of the Domain String in LDM2.
6. Close LDM1.
7. Create Entity E1 in LDM2 with Attribute ATT1 and corresponding Domain
String(Shortcut).
8. close LDM2
9. open LDM1 and apply a change to the domain. For instance change name.
10. open LDM2
-> Name change is applyed but not the datatype. It stays <undefined> and become
disabled

Label : mapping is partially broken after 'Update from Repository...'
Description :
Attribute is mapped to an inherited attribute located in another model.
Both models are checked in into the repository.
When performing an "Update from repository" on the model where the mapping is
defined, PD detects differences on entity sub-shortcuts. Accepting these changes
breaks the mapping for that attribute.

Using cust models:

1. Open both SMA L3.ldm ad SMA Interface.ldm
2. Check in model 'SMA Interface'
3. Execute 'Update from Repository...' on 'SMA Interface'
Or:
1. In LDM1, Entity2 inherits primary attribute from Entity1
2. In LDM2, create Entity3 and define mapping

Label : Proxy performance: consolidation of simple model takes 3 to 5 minutes
Description :
*** Fri Aug 6 15:39:55 EDT 2010 *** ahill *** 15.2.0 EBF 3
I have a PDM model with two tables. Via a direct connection to a repository
installed on Oracle 10g, the consolidation takes around 10 seconds.
If I consolidate the same model via a proxy connection, it takes 5 minutes to

complete.
Customer Configuration:
- Running on lan
- Proxy on different server than oracle instance server�also on different lan
segment.
� -- Note:� this was also the configuration with the previous version of the proxy
and it was not a problem
- Using odbc for direct connection.
- repository is largely loaded� (many models/documents checked in)
Tech support repro environment:
Configuration:
LAN environment
Proxy installed on laptop, Oracle server located one floor below
direct connection is ODBC - oracle driver & data direct
PD version 15.2.0 EBF 3
tested against two repositories:
First repository is newly created and contains a total of three models with a grand
total of 8 tables/entities between all the models. There is only one version of
each model.
The consolidation to about 3.5 minutes.
Second repository is installed on the same Oracle instance but with a different
schema owner. This repository has about 30 models. Some models have multiple
versions and at least two models are 22MB (binary) when saved locally.
This consolidation took 5 minutes.
--------
Having the proxy installed on the same machine as the DBMS instance did not improve
performance. It actually took about 1 minute longer to consolidate the model.
Configuration:
LAN environment
Oracle instance and proxy server installed on same Server box
Consolidation of model with three tables and two references takes about 4.5
minutes.
The repository has a total of three small models (this is the first repository
instances previously described.)
----------
Using the small/new repository instance:
Consolidation in update mode takes about 90 seconds.
I added one table with several columns to the diagram.
Checkout and merge window appear almost instantly.

Objects to be updated are the 'diagram' and the 'new table'
Consolidation in update mode takes about 60 seconds
I added an user (object with no symbol)
Checkout and merge window appear almost instantly.

Object to be updated is the 'new user'

*** Wed Jul 07 2010 11:19:11 GMT-0400 (Eastern Daylight Time) *** ahill ***
This appears to be an issue with the change in how extended attributes are handled.
In v12.5, the extended attribute selection was all or none. In v15.2, they can be
managed individually. This issue is not specific to Teradata.
To reproduce:
1) create PDM_1 with MS SQL Server 2005 or 2008 as the target DBMS
2) add table_1 with several columns
3) create PDM_2 with MS SQL Server 2005 or 2008 as the target DBMS
4) copy paste table_1 from PDM_1 to PDM_2
5) modify the extended attributes on column_1
6) compare both models
7) In the Comparison Options, deselect the Column metaclass

Customer is attempting to reverse engineer a PB application with 149 PBLs. After

selecting the PB target file, PowerDesigner lists the following error:
PD Error:
Libray 'xxxxx(a series of square symbols) xxx.pbl' is not in library list.
In review of the .pbt file, if the library list is shortened to '100' pbls, then PD
is able to populate the library lists. If the library list is increased to '101',
the error occurs again.
It appears that PD needs to allow for more than 100 libraries (pbls) to be listed.

each of this PDM Model generate a new PDM
If you run an Impact Analysis from the first model on the Table or Column only the
first Replication Objects in the generated PDMs are shown.
As well depending on the models which are open different results can be shown.
To Reproduce:
1) Create PDM "org" with Table_1 and a Column_1 and a Table_2
2) Create two new PDMs "Rep1" and "Rep2" and create Table_1 in each model
3) Replicate Column_1 from Model "org" into the two models (Rep1.Table_1 and
Rep2.Table_1)
4) Replicate Table_2 from Model "org" into the two models (Rep1.Table_2 and
Rep2.Table_2)
5) Generate a PDM "Rep1Gen" from "Rep1" and a PDM "Rep2Gen" from "Rep2", save
generation dependencies
6) Add replica objects to rule set: GLOBAL_IMPACT_ANALYSIS::PdCommon\Replication,
for Collection Replica Object add two rules (Action: Delete -> Effect: Delete and
Action: Change -> Effect: Change) see screenshot
7) Do impact analysis in model "org" for Column_1 in Table_1
-> only first Replication Object is complelty shown
8) Do impact analysis in model "org" for Table_2
-> only first Replication Object is complelty shown
If all 5 models are opened in workspace, only one(!) generated Column / Table is

The Import server hangs, you cannot close it. You have to kill Word.
8) If you split up the document into two documents with one table each, then the
export runs successfully for both tables.
9) If you delete rows off both tables so that both tables fit on one page, the
export runs successfully
10) If you delete rows off both tables so that the second table has a row spanning
over the page break, the import server will hang.
I couldn't reproduce using a non-cyrillic character set (use ascii characters

instead: export runs successfully, even if you have rows spanning over page breaks)

Label : ILM: reverse of RS generates incorrect mapping of physical connection

s
Description :
ILM/RS 15.2.0
Reverse engineering of Replication Server generates incorrect mapping of physical
connections to the logical connections if they have same dbname.
-- Repro steps:
Let's have to 2 Data Servers DS1 and DS2
1. Create 4 database devices for data and 4 for log
2. Create 4 databases DB_A1, DB_A2, DB_B1, DB_B2 then add each one data device and
one log device
3. Create 2 logical connections
create logical connection to DS1.DB
go
create logical connection to DS2.DB
go
NB: select * from rs_databases where ltype = "L" and dbname = "DB"
returns:
dsname dbname dbid
DS1 DB 167
DS2 DB 240
4. Map 2 physical connections (first is active, second is standby) to each logical

connection by running rs_init
Active connection for logical DS1.DB: DB_A1
Standby connection for logical DS1.DB: DB_A2
Active connection for logical DS2.DB: DB_B1
Standby connection for logical DS2.DB: DB_B2
5. Define an ODBC Data Source
6. In PD 15.1, create a new ILM and add it a Replication Server
7. Right-click Replication process and select Reverse Engineering...
8. Define connection
9. When Merge Preview window is displayed, select 4 databases and associated
connections to reverse
Merge preview:
Create Database "REL1520.DB_A1" in the Information Liquidity Model "ILM_1"
Create Database "REL1520.DB_A2" in the Information Liquidity Model "ILM_1"
Create Database "REL1520.DB_B1" in the Information Liquidity Model "ILM_1"

"ILM_1"
"ILM_1"
Modify Replication Process "ReplicationProcess_1" in the Information Liquidity
Model "ILM_1" (Name, Code, Extended Attributes, Data Source, Login)
10. Click OK then preview Replication Process
/* Connection: DataConnection_3 */
create connection to "DB_B1" ... as active for DS1.DB
create connection to "DB_B2" ... as standby for DS1.DB
create connection to "DB_A1" ... as standby for DS1.DB
create connection to "DB_A2" ... as standby for DS1.DB
Incorrect results:
- Physical type for the 2 first connections is standby: DB_A1 shall be Active
- Data Server Name of the last 2 connections is incorrect: it should be "DS2"
instead of "DS1"

Label : Moving object shortcut within site_2 moves object source away from so
urce site
Description :
If you have two sites and one site contains a shortcut of an object which is
inside the other site, you cannot move that shortcut within the site
Instead, the object is moved out from it's own site and both symbols become
graphical synonyms.
We however should allow to move a shortcut of an object within a site

Steps to reproduce with PD 15.1.0.2935 ESD 7
--------------------------------------------------------------------
1) New EAM ApplicationArchitecture_1 (Application Architecture Diagram)
2) New Sites Site_1, Site_2
2a) In workspace tree, RM Model -> New -> Site
3) Add a system in each site
(System_1 in Site_1 and System_2 in Site_2, using the Palette Tool)
4) Create a shortcut of System_1 in Site_2
4a) RM on System_1 (in Site_1)
4b) With mouse button held, drag to Site_2
4c) relase button. In the menue, select "Create Shortcut(s) here"
5) Move the shortcut of System_1 within Site_2
5a) Click on shortcut of System_1 and move it within Site_2
=> You will see that System_1 within Site_1 will move into Site_2 and become a
graphical synonym.
6) Try to move one graphical synonym back to Site_1. This only works once, and only
if you take the correct graphical synonym (I suspect that it's the one which used
to be the original object)
7) Move System_1 back to Site_2 (again you get graphical synonyms).
8) Repeat step (6). Now, both graphical synonyms are moved to Site_1

Customer is using the Generate Database feature.

When generating the create table statement, the synonym drop/create statements are
being generated in error when the table level check constraint is generated outside
the create table statement.
When the checks are generated outside the table, an alter statement is generated to
create the check constraint. As a result of the 'alter' statement, the BeforeModify
and AfterModify commands are executed. Therefore, the 'RunSynonymActions' script is
executed.
The current workaround is to generate the table checks inside the create table
statement.
Customer is requesting an EBF or code to modify the XDB file to correct this issue.
To reproduce:
1) create model
2) create table_1 with several columns
3) create synonym_1 and use Table_1 as its base object
4) preview DDL for table
5) change table generation parameters to generate 'check' outside
6) preview DDL for table

Description :
Opend this CR on Request of Courtney Driscoll/ David Dichmann due to legal

Customer TERADATA (SCHWEIZ) GMBH -

Contact: Mike.Bellhouse@Teradata.com
Case description from Customer:
I am using PowerDesigner 15.1.0.2906 EBF4. Your understanding of my problem is not

quite correct.
If I open PowerDesigner without opening a model then create a new LDM it uses
Entity/Relationship notation and Tools/Model Options shows E/R notation. If I then
open the model converted from ERwin to PowerDesigner with the Reischmann
Toolbus CA ERwin to PowerDesigner LDM interface 4.17, Tools/Model Options still
shows E/R notation and any diagram I open is in E/R notation. If I save this model
with File/Save As, exit from PowerDesigner and then open the saved model, any
diagram I did not open before the save is now in IDEF1X notation. Tools/Model
Options still shows E/R notation.
I have not spent much time looking at User Profiles but if I start PowerDesigner
without opening a model I can select Tools/Apply User Profile and select LDM - E/R
Notation as one of the options. I did this but it did not seem to change anything.
I get the same effect with Tools/Resources -> User Profiles...
Can there be something in the diagram XML (or missing from it) that makes the save
change the format to IDEF1X?
I have an ERwin model converted with Reischmann Toolbus 4.17 to PowerDesigner LDM.
I
would like the model to be in Entity/Relationship notation so that it closely
matches the original ERwin model which is in IE format. When I open the newly
created model which has 343 diagrams, each diagram I look at is in E/R notation and
the notation in Tools/model options is also E/R. If I save the model with Save As,
the notation in any diagram I did not open the first time is changed to IDEF1X
notation however the notation in Tools/model options is still E/R. Also if I create
a new model it is created in E/R format.
It is very important for me to find a solution to this problem. Perhaps there is an

issue with the Reischmann Toolbus XML format so I have also asked Reischmann about
this.

*** Thursday, January 28, 2010 10:48:02 AM *** ahill *** 15.1.0 & 15.1.0
EBF6
This issue is appears to be a regression because this functionality works as

expected in v12.5.0 with latest EBF.
If a recursive relationship is in a 'hidden' state, an unexpected exception occurs

when trying to drag & drop (move) the entity within the diagram. If the state of
the symbol is 'none' or visible, then the entity can be moved without the error
Workaround is to delete the recursive symbol instead of hiding the symbol.
To reproduce:
1) create new CDM

2) create entity_1 with a recursive relationship
3) create entity_2 with a recursive relationship
4) select entity_1 and drag it to a new location in the diagram
5) select Symbol-->Show Symbol menu
6) select relationship tab and hide relationship_2
7) select entity_2 and drag it to a new location in the diagram
Unexpected exception occurs:

Label : DB2: should drop "GENERATED ALWAYS AS" check constraint before renami
ng table
Description :
In DB2, you may set the "GENERATED ALWAYS AS" clause on a column (see DB2
tab).
When the model is updated and the backup tables are required, if the parent table
has to be renamed then PDes should drop the column check constraint first otherwise
the "rename table" statement will fail:
drop table "tmp_T";
rename table T to "tmp_T";
Repro:
1. Reverse the below script against IBM DB2 UDB 9.x Common Server
create table T
(
col1 integer not null,
col2 char(10) generated always as (upper(col1)),
);
2. Add a new column col3

3. Go to Database > Apply Model Changes to database
Set "Get Database Schema" to "Using a script file"
Select "Always use create Statements", check "Backup database" and "Drop temporary
Tables" options.
Generated script is:
drop table "tmp_T";

create table T
(
col1 integer not null,
col2 char(10) generated always as (UPPER(c)),
col3 char(10)
);
drop table "tmp_T";
NB: Idea would be to drop the column, before renaming the table:
drop table "tmp_T";
alter table T drop column C2 cascade ;

Label : Replication on attribute level is not completely supported in LDM
Description :
Not able, to replicate objects on an Attribute Type level; only tables are
able to replicate. There is no repicate / Reuse icon for attributes in LDM but you
can see replicated objects if you do for instance a PDM-LDM generation wiht
replicated Columns.
Steps to reproduce:
General issue
1. create a LDm and a entity
2. select attribute Tab
-> there is no icon for replicate / reuse an entity
This is possible in old LDM and in a CDM
PDM-LDM migration
1. create a PDM with two tables
2. add some column in the first table
3. open the second table and in the columns tab use the Replicate icon and add some
columns from the first table
4. Tools -> Generate Logicla Model
5. open the second Entity of the new LDM and go to the Attributes Tab
-> you see the attribute is greyed due it is replicated but no support for this in
the icon bar
6. Open the Properties of one Attribute and select Version Infos Tab
-> you see that the replication information are available
But there is no Replicate icon for attributes in an LDM
7. This happen as well if you migrate a 12.5 PDM (Logical) with replications to a
15.1 LDM.
Documentation:
Core Feature Guide -> Shortcuts and Object Replications -> Object Replications
The following table lists objects per module that support replications:
-> No LDM is listed at all. However Replication of a complete entity is possible.

As well replication of Attributes should be possible due CDM->LDM and PDM->LDM
generation

Label : Importing legacy LDM: diagram display pref are lost - hidden symbols

\\neo\cir\...\587433
(v12.5 LDM and PDM customer samples)
When importing legacy LDM models, the display preferences of the legacy LDM should
be preserved. Specifically, hidden objects should remain hidden.
In testing, I have been able to work around most issues. However, I am unable to
find a workaround for the 'hidden' entities. When the LDM is imported, all hidden
entities are now visible in the v15 LDM.
Analysis:
The display preferences of the LDM do not match those of the 'logical PDM'. The
reason for this is that we are dealing with different object types. (i.e. entity vs
table).
In order to workaround this
===============================================================
Issue:
1) open the legacy LDM in v12.x and create a new LDM in v15
2) compare the display preferences\format for each object type
3) in v15, change the display preferences to match those of the v12.x model and
save this values as 'defaults'
This approach allows the customer to import the legacy LDM and preserve the diagram
layout.
The two exceptions are:
1) hidden symbols are now visible

2) location of text on inheritance links are anchored to the parent side of the
link

\\neo\cir\...\585755
(May be related to CR 548866)
When deleting the original object, the replica is not deleted (synchronized)if the
replica model was closed at the time of deletion.
To reproduce:
1) open source.cdm
2) delete domain_3 and domain_4
3) save changes to source.cdm
4) open child.cdm
5) check properties of domain_3 and domain_4
They have a Status of 'not found'
Per the documentation, synchronizing replicas
When you make changes to an original object, the replica is synchronized

automatically:
If the referencing model is opened - synchronization occurs instantly.

If the referencing model is closed - synchronization occurs when it is next opened.
Both the referencing and target models must be open for synchronization to occur.
Based on this statement, the customer is expecting the replicas to be deleted.

(models and customer description of issue with screen shots)
Customer has a complex set of inheritance structures. In the model they are using
two packages with internal shortcuts. When they generate a PDM, duplicate
references are being created for the mixed geometry table. If they move all objects
into one package (thus eliminating the shortcuts), the PDM is generated correctly
and there is only one set of references created.
To reproduce:
1) generate a pdm from 'test two pkg.cdm'

This will generate a PDM with duplicate references
2) generate pdm from 'test one pkg.cdm.

This generates the desired model

3. Create and edit an index to add it col_1 and col_2
4. Archive the model
5. Edit table and remove col_1
6. Modify Database and set options:
Deselect Key Filter
Select Index > Modify index > Inside
Set Index > Index Filter > Others only
-- The Database Synchronization shows that it is going to:

* Delete Column "Column_1" in the Table "Table_1"
* Delete Index Column "Column_1" in the Index "Index_1"
* Remove Column_1 from collection Columns of Key_1
-- The generated script is:
drop index INDEX_1 on TABLE_1;
alter table TABLE_1

drop COL_1;
create index INDEX_1 (

COL_2
) on TABLE_1;
-- NB: The index is not recreated if you selected 'Primary index' checkbox under

---------------------------------------------
1) Open OOM from \\neo\CIR\CIRMails\58xxxx\580828
2) Check the implementation in model:
2a)Go to Class A -> Attribute A1 (DT: xsd:string) and doubleclick on it.
2b) Go to the "Standard Checks" tab
2c) You see that value and label are separated from each other
3) Generate XML Schema
3a) Select Language -> Generate XML Schema Code
3b) Select Model, Class and xsd file. OK

When reverse engineering a SQL Server 2005 database whose compatibility level is
set to (80), the following error occurs:
Unable to list the tables
[Microsoft] [ODBC] [ODBC SQL Server] [SQL Server] Statements(s) could not be
prepared.
SQLSTATE = 37000
Upon review of the XDB file, the problem appears to be due to the following:
In the SQL Server 2005 XDB, the SqlListQuery uses the ::fn_listextendedproperty()
to retrieve the comment information on the Table and Column objects. As part of the
function call, the paramters: 'u.name','o.name', and 'c.name' are passed.
When connecting to a database with compatibility set to (90) (SQL Server 2005), the
parameters are correctly interpreted by the server.
When connecting to a database with compatibility set to (80) (SQL Server 2000), the
parameters are not accepted by the server and the ODBC sqlstate 37000 error is
generated. This results in the tables and columns not able to be listed.
In testing, I have verified via SQL Server Management Studio that the
fn_listextendedproperty()will work with a database at compatibility level (80) if
you specify the specific object name for schema, table, and [column].
SOLUTION:
After searching the MSDN SQL Server blogs, it appears that the
fn_listextendedproperty() does not accept the passing parameters as specified in PD
when the compatibility mode is (80). I, also, verified that this same behavior
exists with a SQL Server 2008 instance and a database set at level (80).
With this confirmation, it is necessary to abandon the use of the

fn_listextendedproperty() for compatibility reasons and use the
sys.extended_properties system view to obtain the comment metadata. I have been
able to modify the Table and Column SqlListQuery items to successfully reverse the
comments regardless of the compatibility level of the database.
The following modifications have been made in the SQL Server 2005 and 2008 DBMS
files:
For the Table\SqlListQuery
1) In the select statement, change...
(select convert(varchar(8000), value) from ::fn_listextendedproperty(NULL, 'user',

u.name, 'table', o.name, null, null) where name = 'MS_Description') as coln
to
convert(varchar(8000), p.value)
2) Add the following to the FROM clause
left outer join [%CATALOG%.]sys.extended_properties p on (p.major_id = o.id and

p.minor_id = 0)
For the Column\SqlListQuery
1) in the select statement change...

(select convert(varchar(8000), value) from ::fn_listextendedproperty(NULL, 'user',
u.name, 'table', o.name, 'column', c.name) where name = 'MS_Description') as colnE,
to
convert(varchar(8000), p.value),
2) Add the following to the FROM clause
left outer join [%CATALOG%.]sys.extended_properties p on (p.major_id = o.object_id

and p.minor_id = c.column_id and p.class =1)
NOTE: if the 'p.class = 1' is omitted, then an extra column is reversed. This
appears to be the column of the clustered index that exists on the table.

Label : Extened Attributes should be disabled for a replicated column
Description :
Workflow is not correct; you should be able to modify not before desync
process.
steps to reproduce:
- create a PDM
- Add an extended model definition and open its properties.
- under Profile add Metaclass Column
- Insert extended attribut to metaclass Column (as Boolean) -> Close all windows
- Open in model a table and add a column
- Select "Customize Columns and Filter"
- check / enable extened attribute -> Close window
- mark / click on Extened Attribut -> close window
- Create a new Table and open Properties -> Column Tab
- Replicate column where extened attribute is marked
-> Replicated column: you are still able to modify extened attribute without
changing the SyncRule
Disable the extened attrubute shows message that the sync is broken
open Properties -> Tab "Version Infos" -> replication Properties

-> Extened Attribute is still marked
Close window
Press Apply and check Replication Properties again
-> Extened Attribute is disabled now.
This Workflow is not correct; you should be able to modify not before desync
process.
That means.
The Extened Attribute should be disabled for a replicated column like "Name" "Code"
"Datatype" and all the other attributes.
You should be only able to modify extened attributes when you disable the "Extened
Attribute" checkbox in Properties -> Tab "Version Infos" -> Replication Properties

Description :
*** Tuesday, March 31, 2009 1:17:13 PM *** ahill *** 12.5 & 15.0
BUG: PD 12.5.0.2361(esd#19) consolidate 'metamodel.oom' to ASE 1501 esd#1 using the

Sybase ASE ODBC driver 15.00.00.xxx causes loss of metadata.
This issue appears to be due to the size specified in the 'text size' parameter of
the ODBC DSN. The default value is 32678.
*****
Consulted with ASE ODBC engineering, 3GL TSE, and ASE Alliance engineer
specializing in P&T.
The consensus from the consult is that the 'text size' attribute needs to be
increased to resolve this issue. Changing this value from 32678 to 10,000,000
should have no performance related issues when working with a repository installed
on ASE. This value can be increased to a maximum of 2G if necessary.
Another issue that occurred was some text characters being extracted incorrectly.
Using metamodel.oom, 'ellipsis' in a comment was extracted as a '.' period.
This is due to the character set of the server. However, this issue can be
addressed by changing the 'character set' attribute on the ODBC driver.
ASE TSE has provided the following:

The ellipsis (...) character is properly processed (consolidate/extract/compare
from repository)
when PD 125 client has MaxBytesPerChar set and the ODBC driver setting 'User
Specified' = utf8 is set...
////////////////////
ASE:
I have an ASE 1501 ESD#1 server.

It's charset = iso_1, sort = bin_iso_1.
---
ODBC driver:
If I set the <<User Specified>> = utf8 in the Character Set groupbox

and the <<Client Default>> > Code Page Type = ANSI (it's greyed out).
---
PD 12.5 client:
The regkey: HKLM\Software\Sybase\PowerDesigner 12\Repository\MaxBytesPerChar =3

The ellipsis character (a unicode character) is properly mananged in the db.

Description :
DBMS Teradata V2R6
An incorrect DDL generated when defining a unique primary index
When we create a index, then define its properties in Index properties -> Teradata
tab, the script PDesigner will use if we decide to generate the code 'Inside' the
create table, will be the TERADATAV2R6::Script\Objects\PKey\Add.
=> if if it is a primary index, the TERADATAV2R6::Script\Objects\PKey\Add or

TERADATAV2R6::Script\Objects\PKey\Create values are ignored. Pdesigner will use the
Add syntax.
=> if if it is not a primary index, Pdesigner will use both, the

TERADATAV2R6::Script\Objects\PKey\Add and TERADATAV2R6::Script\Objects\PKey\
Create,which causes the behavioru customer reported: the index is created twice.
A temporary workaround is to delete the value for TERADATAV2R6::Script\Objects\

Index\Create.
So, only the TERADATAV2R6::Script\Objects\Index\Add script will be executed.

Description :
Tested and reproduced with PD 15.0 ESD#3 and ESD#5. Also reproduced with PD
12.5 ESD#19.
DBMS: MS SQL Server 2005
Using DataDirect MS SQL Server Wired Protocol ODBC Driver.
When comparing column comments that should be exactly the same between model and
table created in database, the compare window seems to duplicate the "enters" (CR)
for the column comments (when comments have more than one row and "enters" between
them) when reverse engineering the table from database. As a result, PD considers
identical table column comments as different.

**** Wed Apr 11 15:51:54 EDT 2001 *** mbartrum ****

Retested in 8.0.0.211 (ebf1):
A reoccurring Scenario:
Customer makes changes to their model, the application is pc resource ladden with
other applications opened as well( email, internet browser, internal systems
applications etc..) The user spends a great deal of time positioning the graphical
symbols on the workarea...The PD user gets interrupted by someone or some other
task. Then the PD user goes back to PowerDesigner and make a few more changes.
When trying to save the changes to file. The PowerDesigner application does not
respond well and gets locked up or hangs, or CPU cycles erradically causing the
SAVE feature in PowerDesigner to fail. Resulting in LOST meta data changes to the
PowerDesigner model.
NOTE: This has happened so so many times to the users who sometimes called this in
or never called it in. Those who don't call it in just accept that this is the
nature of software and rebuild their model.
Customer requests us to bump up this priority to get the AutoSave feature into PD
8.0.0. as soon as we can.
