1.0 Component Testing for Ada

   1.1 APAR # PM67332 (DEFECT ID RATLC01997484)

Ada instrumentor returns internal error when the source file does not involve any Ada code.
No known workaround.

   1.2 APAR # PM71278 (DEFECT ID RATLC02507975)

attolada incorrectly adds, sometimes, STANDARD prefix.
No known workaround.

   1.3 APAR # PM69893 (DEFECT ID RATLC02611745)

In Ada environment, 32 bits floats are reported as 64 bits if the Target Deployment Port is designed for 64 bits floats. It works as design.

   1.4 APAR # PM69904 (DEFECT ID RATLC02611752)

When DUMP Ada restriction is selected, the attol_serv_95.adb continues to use text_io package and 'image.
Workaround: modify the file attol_serv_95.adb manually into the generated TDP or into the xml/ada and save the xdp.

2.0 Component Testing for C

   2.1 (DEFECT ID RATLC01997620)

Adding #define RTRT_PTU_UNDEF_I into the TDP > 'Library Settings'> 'Include files visible to all generated files' will no more define I as I1. That allows tested code to use I as field name or type name or variable name.

   2.2 APAR # PM61088 (DEFECT ID RATLC02504298)

When a STRUCTURE is declared in an ENVIRONMENT block, the results for this structure are always expanded even if the COMPACT display option is chosen.

   2.3 APAR # PM77452 (DEFECT ID RATLC02509727)

attolpostpro fails with error TestRT-E-ELEMLISTE, Uncompleted value list[...] when INIT IN instruction is used with only one value in the list.
Workaround: use the 'INIT =' instead.

3.0 Documentation - TestRT

   3.1 (DEFECT ID RATLC02507106)

Link to the document was missing from the Release Notes and the start menu.
Workaround: type file:///Doc/release_notes_trt_.html into Internet browser address box ; where is your Test RealTime installation directory, and the tool version for which you request the Release notes.

   3.2 (DEFECT ID RATLC02507148)

FlexLm version requirement was missing in Release Notes and Installation Guide.
No known workaround.

   3.3 APAR # PM69805 (DEFECT ID RATLC02611513)

The documentation for Chart viewer overview, under Reporting > Generating 2D and 3D charts, appears incomplete. Rewrote information center topics on generating and viewing 2D and 3D charts.

4.0 GUI - TestRT

   4.1 APAR # PM68327 (DEFECT ID RATLC02507101)

Studio crashes on Windows XP when switching the Coverage viewer from Rates to Source tab.
Workaround: from Rates tab, close the Coverage viewer and open it again to view the Source tab.

5.0 Installation - TestRT

   5.1 APAR # PM72288 (DEFECT ID RATLC01998159)

When installing TestRT 8.0 on Japanese Windows system, the Japanese characters in license agreement page are garbled.
Workaround: read english version.

6.0 Integration with RQM

   6.1 APAR # PM70244 (DEFECT ID RATLC02507676)

Incorrect start time reported in RQM when script is missing.
No known workaround.

   7.1 APAR # PM69351 (DEFECT ID RATLC02610129)

tdpplugin.exe used for Microsoft Visual Studio plugin and others, printout error : CreateProcess failed!
Workaround: use perllauncher instead.

8.0 Test RealTime for Eclipse IDE

   8.1 APAR # PM71097 (DEFECT ID RATLC02507917)

The Visual Test RealTime Iterations number is not updated when datapool csv file is modified.
Workaround: delete the generated file manually or make a smart modification to datapool settings file.

9.0 Runtime Analysis

   9.1 (DEFECT ID RATLC02507924)

Now documentation states that: excluding an individual node from instrumentation may lead to a crash in C++. On-line documentation from studio > Running tests and applications > Excluding a node from instrumentation web documentation Testing > Testing with Rational Test RealTime Studio > Using the graphical user interface > Running tests and applications.
Workaround: use the new web documentation.

   9.2 APAR # PM77535 (DEFECT ID RATLC02509757)

attolada fails with 'Internal Error' during analyze when too many mixed 'and then' using polymorphism.
Workaround: reduce mixed 'and then'.

10.0 System Testing for C

   10.1 APAR # PM77607 (DEFECT ID RATLC02645028)

atsprepro generates error extra ')' leading to compilation failed.
Workaround: write the WTIME expression without '()'.

   10.2 APAR # PM78266 (DEFECT ID RATLC02649255)

Unable to get unit testing report or unreadable values when the TDP > Library Settings > For testing features > Floating point number support > RTRT_FLOAT_DUMP is checked.
Workaround: filter the .spt file after execution into the TDP Build settings > execution function, using extrdumpieee.exe.
