Description

Rational Team Concert for Power Systems Software V 2.0 is a team collaboration tool that is built on a scalable, extensible platform that integrates tasks across the software lifecycle. In addition, it also offers the following features:
  • Collaboration and integration across the development lifecycle
  • Process configuration and customization
  • Eclipse client and Web interfaces
  • Powered by the Jazz™ technology platform
  • Extensions to facilitate team collaboration on IBM i, including:
    Builds:
    • The new IBM i build specification allows you to define what objects to build from an i Project, how to build these objects, which dependencies would require a rebuild of these objects. It also allows you to define inter-project dependencies.
    • There is a new team build definition which uses this new IBM i build specification, which enables you to specify library mappings for IBM i projects, to specify library list search paths when building, and to specify other property and substitution variables to be applied at the time of the build.
    • Individual developers can also submit builds to their own libraries using the IBM i build specification.
    • There is support for loading and building changesets which were delivered after a specified prior snapshot version of the source.
    • There is improved logging of build error messages in the build results.
    • There are additional options for starting the build engine.
    • With Rational Developer for Power Systems Software, developer-scoped builds using the IBM i build specification can be submitted.
    Change Promotion:
    Improved instructions on configuring process, source control and builds for change promotion.
    Auditing:
    There is an enhancement to tag binary objects created from a build (e.g. *PGM objects) with a build identifier, so that these objects can be mapped back to the version of source from which they were created.
