Retrieve Requirement Rationale

reqset = slreq.load("myReqs.slreqx");

Retrieve the requirements with the find method.

reqs = reqset.find("Type","Requirement");

Create a for-loop that retrieves the rationale for each requirement in the slreq.Requirement object array.

reqRationales = cell(length(reqs),1);
for k = 1:length(reqs)
  reqRationales{k} = reqs(k).getRationaleAsText;
end
reqRationales{1}
