Lesson 2: Importing project requirements into DOORS

You must import the requirements module into DOORS® prior importing them into Rhapsody® Gateway. In this lesson, you learn how to create a new project in DOORS, restore a DOORS project, and view requirements in DOORS.

Before you begin

Before you begin, you must have administrator access to DOORS to import requirements module into DOORS. You can print the instructions by selecting File>Print in the browser. You need to adjust your printer settings.

About this task

Note: The Elevator project is used as the requirements example for this tutorial. The project is in the Rhapsody/Gateway folder. The same model exists for both C++ and C programming languages; either one can be used for the exercise.

Procedure

Start the DOORS client, click View > Database View.
For the Elevator example project, type Doorselevatorpjt in the Name field . The new Doorselevatorpjt folder appears listed under the Doors Database.
Select Doorselevatorpjt folder, and click from the bar menu, File > Restore > Project. The Restore Project - Doors window opens.
Click Browse, and select from the Program Files\IBM\Rational\Rhapsody\7.5.3\Gateway\examples\coupling\DOORS, the Tutorial.dpa file to load the Elevator requirements example. Click OK.
The Elevator project appears in the Doorselevatorpjt folder. Double-click the Elevator Specs file, for example, to open a requirements file. You can view the requirements in the Standard view.

Results

Now, you can import the Elevator Specs requirements into a Rational® Rhapsody model, or add more requirements to the project before importing it.
