MATLAB: Am I unable to startup the Requirements Management Interface (RMI) for the second time

interfacemanagementRequirementsRequirements Management Interfacermistart

When I have closed the RMI and want to start it up again, I get the following error message:

   Cannot find the Requirements Management Interface.
Please verify that it is installed and on the MATLAB Search Path.

This issue has been verified when using the Requirements Management Interface (RMI) for a second time.

Currently, to work around this issue, select "Show all nodes" from the View menu before closing the RMI Tool.

These messages usually show up when the RMI has not been set up correcly. Please try the following:

Change the include path in the DOORS startup file. To do so:

1. Open <doors>\lib\dxl\startup.dxl in an editor

2. In the user defined files section of startup.dxl, add the line: #include addins/dmi/dmi.inc

3. Save startup.dxl and close it

Also, this could be a compatibility issue between RMI 1.01 and Doors 5.X. Please read below for more information:

The Requirements Management Interface 1.0.1 (R12) is supported for use with DOORS version 4.0.3 or Higher, but will not work with DOORS 5.0 or 5.1. This has been fixed in the next release of the RMI.

You can access the documentation for RMI by typing the following command at the MATLAB prompt:

web([docroot '/toolbox/reqmgt/reqmgt_product_page.html'])

The documentation for the Requirements Management Interface 1.0.1 states:

For the DOORS version of the Requirements Management Interface, you need QSS's DOORS requirements management system, version 4.0.3 or higher. To use version 5 of DOORS, you need version 1.0.2 or higher of the Requirements Management Interface (R12.1).

MATLAB: Do I receive error messages while using the Requirements Management Interface within the Signal Builder block in Simulink Verification and Validation 1.0 (R14)

This bug has been fixed in Release 14 Service Pack 3 (R14SP3). For previous product releases, read below for any possible workarounds:

We have verified that there is a bug in Simulink Verification and Validation 1.0 (R14) in the Requirements Management Interface. To work around this issue:

1. Determine the overall requirement count by right-clicking on the Signal

Builder block inside the Simulink diagram.

2. Look under the mask of the Signal Builder block and select the From-workspace block inside.

3. Type in the command prompt:

sbdata = get_param(gcb,'VnvData')

4. Look at the field value sbdata.groupReqCnt. This should be a vector with the length equal to the number of signal groups. The sum of the elements

should be the same as the total number of requirements.

5. Set the value to the correct distribution:

sbdata.groupReqCnt = []

For example, if you have 13 requirements in the first signal group and 3 requirements in the second signal group, set:

sbdata.groupReqCnt = [13 3]

6. Apply the correct data structure to the model

set_param(gcb,'VnvData',sbdata)

7. Save the model and verify that the fix works.
