3.0.1.x to 3.0.1.2 API users beware of href space handling
Hello,
I wanted to warn my fellow RQM API users that Rational has apparently "fixed" handling of spaces in href="My Test Script or Test Case Linkage.xml" if using the RQMUrlUtility to PUT data.
In versions before 3.0.1.2 you had to include the "+" sign as a replacement for spaces in the href XML string.
In version 3.0.1.2 API the "+" is now accepted as a LITERAL character. This can wreak havoc with publishing your test case and test script href strings.
You should leave spaces in the href string as actual spaces as the RQM processing appears to now handle the re-assignment as needed.
