RTC-CC Synchronizer: Question concerning subComponent synchronization
Hi there,
it's me again with a little question. As I'm using the synchronizer more and more I have some more questions related to it. The first is related within this Jazz.net entry: more-than-one-component-to-one-folder the second is this: Is it possible to sync sub-sub folder from RTC to CC without getting the mid folders syncronized, too? Example is this component structure: Is it possible to just synchronize the dirs "dir1" and "dir2" from the RTC side to the CC side without getting the dir "CompI" created? When trying to synchronize a sub-sub-folder to CC I noticed that he creates the folder structure to the component root in CC the way that I still have the tree to the folder I marked here: What I need is that I mark a folder as subVOB component with the CC attribute. Lets say the folder is called "BasisDiverse". In CC this folder contains a folder called "ClearQuest". When I now mark the ClearQuest folder within the RTC component (picture above) he creates in CC a folder called "Access_Room_Overview" and within this folder he creates the folder ClearQuest. But what I need is that he directly synchronizes the "ClearQuest" folder inside the subVOB component "BasisDiverse". I'm not sure if the explanation is understandable, but I hope so. Greetings, Simon |

No, this is not supported.
One reason is what is the synchronizer supposed to do if CompI and CompII both contain a folder named "dir5"? It could throw a "conflict", but then the likelihood of the user getting confused (and/or annoyed) is high. So we try to minimize the possiblity of conflicts. Comments

A "load rule" approach is certainly a possible enhancement. I've created the work item Allow specifying the component-root-relative pathname of a synchronization root (267544) so we can discuss the details of what this would look like (and prioritize when/whether it would be implemented).
