To select one or more base Rational®
ClearCase® folders
in a single VOB and map them to individual Rational
ClearCase source
control components, you must first prepare the components by creating
an attribute type with a specific name and then making an attribute
of that type.
Before you begin
The sub-VOB component directory must be visible in any of
the synchronization or import views. For example, you can apply the
backstop label to all of the folders from the VOB root to the parent
of the sub-VOB component directory.
Procedure
- To select one or more Rational
ClearCase folders
in a single VOB and map them to individual Rational
ClearCase source
control components, you must create an attribute type with this exact
command:
cleartool mkattype -global -nc -shared -vtype string com.ibm.rational.interop.ClearCase.subVOB_Component
- Then, apply the attribute to the folder's element. In the following example,
subCompA is the name of the IBM® Engineering Workflow
Management (EWM) source
control component that is created in the ClearCase Synchronized
Stream, and folder1\subCompA@@ is the component subfolder in the Rational
ClearCase VOB that
is mapped to the EWM source
control component.
cleartool mkattr -nc com.ibm.rational.interop.ClearCase.subVOB_Component \"subCompA\" folder1\subCompA@@
What to do next
The sub-VOB component is now ready for synchronization. Note: You
can estimate the VOB migration time as approximately one second for
each unique version.
