RIF Import

Hello,

is it possible that the DOORS RIF Importer has a problem with the RIF 1.1a <ACCESS-POLICY> element, especially with a subsequent <ATTRIBUTE-DEFINITION-ENUMERATION-REF>?

In the current situation, there is a RIF file with an obviously correct and valid structure (according to the RIF 1.1a xsd), but when importing that file, DOORS throws an error "Unrecognized RIF element: ATTRIBUTE-VALUE-ENUMERATION-REF" / Failed to import RIF".

Regards,

Gerhard

Hi, as far as I know DOORS does not implement RIF 1.1a .. DOORS only implements RIF 1.2 and ReqIf. If you need to import RIF 1.1.a you need to resort to an external tool for example Atego Excerpt or Requisis Rex.

As far as I understand RIF 1.1a is not a real standard. We experienced that several tools implemented slight variations of RIF 1.1a.
