Diagram Tools in statechart does not show all tools rational Rhapsody - rhapsody

I am learning Rational Rhapsody C++ 8.3 and could not able to find some tools like History connector diagram connector junction connector etc. I can see termination connector condition connector etc. Can some one please guide what changes i Need to do.
Thanks

Sounds like your model is currently using the "basic" perspective, which hides options that are considered more advanced.

Go to the Perspective toolbar and change the setting to "advanced" and see if the missing tools are now visible.

Chromium Extensions and Qt QWebView

Is it possible to integrate chrome extensions (i.e. browser add-ons) with Qt QWebView? If yes, then how? Please could you point me to any docs, tutorials or wiki on the topic?
For the moment, it is not possible. Qt developers don't have this idea in mind for the moment, but maybe for future release. You can read more here, where one of the developers says:
We don't have any active development on it. One question in particular
was that we don't know which extensions our customers would like to
use, and for what.
And also:
We don't have any specific extensions on our roadmap. Looking into
what we can easily add and that would be useful is on the roadmap for
5.8.

building scorm packager tool

I have recently approached by my co-worker about creating our own SCORM Packager. Honestly I have little clue about SCORM. I have look into Adobe Captivate and also Articulate Presenter. But unfortunately things that we worked here are highly customized. Our shop are half HTML and the other half is Flash.
Here are my questions:
Any suggestions to where I can get better understanding about SCORM (beside http://scorm.com)? I am looking something more hands-on approach.
is there a tool out there that can take our products (either HTML or
Flash) and wrap them into SCORM 1.2 zip compliant file?
Thanks in advance
For your course to be truly integrated with SCORM, you need to modify your ActionScript to report activities/status throughout the life of the course. This can't be achieved with a packaging tool, because it would have no way of knowing how your custom ActionScript is built and where to hook into it.
Adobe Captivate and Articulate Presenter have SCORM integration built in to their ActionScript, but it's under the hood where you can't see it unless you decompile their SWFs. The bits that are public -- the SCORM JavaScript, the manifest, etc. -- are only part of the story.
If you'd like to see a simple example of how to add SCORM code to a Flash file, see http://pipwerks.com/2008/04/27/how-to-add-basic-scorm-code-to-a-flash-movie/
It doesn't cover packaging, though.
To better understanding SCORM, I think you shoud go to the place where it born: http://legacy.adlnet.gov/Technologies/scorm/SCORMSDocuments/Forms/All%20Documents.aspx
ActivePresenter may be a good option.
I actually made a SCORM packager for my work. It's a bit of a process, but I think the best place to start was to study some working examples. You say you're doing SCORM 1.2, here are the reference files that you'll need; it has the CAM manual which tells you how the manifest file should be built. It also includes the SCORM 1.2 test suite you'll need to use to make sure your package conforms to SCORM, and that the content launches and communicates with the API correctly. The Test Suite is a bitch to setup though, and I recommend setting up a windows XP virtual machine image to test with(I used Parallels).
About your second question, I'm sure there is some public Scorm packaging applications out there, but we didn't find any that fit our needs (hence the need to build our own). You may want to look some more before creating your own from scratch; it will be a lengthy process.

VT500 terminal emulation Flex component

Does anybody know of an existing Flex component that does VT500 terminal emulation?
We are gradually replacing terminal-based user interfaces with an AIR-based GUI.
We would like to have a terminal emulator embedded in that new AIR GUI, in order to give our users an integrated user experience when navigating between our old and new software.
Emulation of other VT-series terminals than the VT500 could also be usefull.
Btw, I'm not interested in writing it myself (nor having it written for me) because it would only be a nice-to-have in our software architecture.
Thanks,
Pieter
Isn't the whole point of using Air and upgrading the technology is that you DON'T need to use a terminal anymore? Seems a bit redundant.
I don't think you'll find anyone that has already created the emulator, but it can't be that hard to implement if you really need the functionality. I know I've seen an AJAX implementation of it (anyterm.org) that uses the ROTE library for the virtual emulator. You might want to look into that.

Tools and practices for small group collaboration?

I will be starting a senior design project in a week with 2 or 3 other engineers. We are electrical engineers but we will need to do some coding for our project.
Right now, I think using Google Code + Visual Studio + AnkhSVN is a good solution on the code side. We also need to:
Maintain design documents
Have a smooth way of communicating
Would you recommend anything in particular beyond a central network storage, and e-mail?
Edit: We are not going to set up or configure anything. I would rather just pay for cheap (
Yes, a good wiki such as Atlassian's Confluence.
Wikipedia has a great list of Collaborative Software. I think a decent content management system would be essential for maintaining design documents (especially over plain network storage).
You might try Basecamp , the basic plan is enough for you already.

Suggest a suitable Automated Testing Tool for my project

We are in search of an automated testing tool for our project. As we are in testing department we prefer a tool which would have less programming in it. Please suggest some tools for us .Till now we are testing our application manually.
Our project is being developed in Java.
Is there any freeware tool that I could use or is it better to go for a paid tool?
Thanks in Advance.
Less programming? You'll need something like JUnit to write unit tests if you want to do serious regression testing, but unit tests require you to write some code
Here's a big list of open-source testing tools, some of them may offer what you want: http://java-source.net/open-source/testing-tools/junit
For example, T2 claims to be a random testing tool. As one, it is fully automatic, but one must keep in mind that the code coverage of random testing is in general very limited. It should be used as a complement to other testing methods. T2 checks for internal errors, run time exceptions, method specifications, and class invariant.
Not sure if you mean a CI tool or not, but we use Hudson at Zappos and it works pretty well.
http://hudson-ci.org/
..and there's also CruiseControl: http://cruisecontrol.sourceforge.net/
If you're not talking about CI, maybe you mean QA testing - in which case you should take a look at something like Selenium (for web apps):
http://seleniumhq.org/
If you're doing GUI testing? I'm not really familiar with that area, but I've heard about WinRunner and Rational:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HP_WinRunner
http://www-01.ibm.com/software/rational/offerings/quality/
..though neither are really free tools. Something like AutoIT might help you move widgets around, but it lacks the reporting parts:
http://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/index.shtml
There could be two answer to you question:
Besides Selenium, though it has ample of advantages, I am reading about another tool which uses same API which Selenium use. The only changes in API I have seen so far is it reduces the complexity of functions thus making it more easier and simpler for user who is learning.
The tool is called 'Helium' and it has 50% (and more) less complex functions and code as Selenium has.
The only problem with this tool is it is paid tool for learning purpose and for implementing not-so-big scale project you can use it. But yeah after some time its gonna cost you.
I have implemented some code on Helium. Please let me know , if you face any issue initially or you are thinking to implement it.
Other being, you can use Selenium Builder(http://khyatisehgal.wordpress.com/2014/05/26/selenium-builder-exporting-and-execution/) which is an advanced form of Selenium IDE. It imports your command in different languages and does work more effectively and efficiently as Selenium IDE does(http://khyatisehgal.wordpress.com/2014/05/25/selenium-builder/) . So you can import scripts in Eclipse IDE and just execute them as is.
Please let me know , if you have any doubt in any of the tool.
