The Problem This one is particularly applicable if you are using the Rhapsody Profile Builder but the underlying cause may hit you in other areas of modeling too. The Profile Builder uses a domain specific language to model different aspects of profiling in order to…
What on Earth ? I had a very interesting situation this week regarding the use of custom profiles that define their own Add New Menu. In this case I was using the Profile Builder to update an AUTOSAR profile. I added a new term called…
