Hi all,

Need some help here.

How to load all of the visio (*.vdx) files from a component?

1. The component contains many folders;

2. The visio files can be under multiple subfolders

For example,

National (A component)

- Folder1

- Folder1.1

- File.txt

- Folder1.2

- 1A.vdx

- 1B.doc

- Folder2

- 2A.vdx

- 2B.doc

- 2C.pdf

I would like to have this result in my sandbox, i.e. only vdx extension.

National

- Folder1

- Folder1.2

- 1A.vdx

- Folder2

- 2A.vdx

With this loadrule, I could load the 1A.vdx on the Folder1/Folder1.2.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<scm:sourceControlLoadRule xmlns:scm="http://com.ibm.team.scm" version="1">

<parentLoadRule>

<component name="National"/>

<parentFolder repositoryPath="/Folder1/Folder1.2"/>

<include>

<filter pattern="*.vdx"/>

</include>

<sandboxRelativePath includeComponentName="true" includeRepositoryPath="true"/>

</parentLoadRule>

</scm:sourceControlLoadRule>

Since I wanted to load every vdx within a component, I changed the parentFolder.repositoryPath to "/", i.e. <parentFolder repositoryPath="/"/>. After the change, there is nothing loaded.

Would you please educate me how to load a specific type of file (*.vdx) from a component with includeRepositoryPath?

Best regards,

James

Sorry for those garbage confusing characters in the loadrule parentfolder. Here is the clear version ;)

<parentfolder repositoryPath="/Folder1/Folder1.2"/> loaded a vdx file

<parentfolder repositoryPath="/"/> loaded nothing

Hello James,

this is unsupported at this time, there is a prior similar post on this functionality here https://jazz.net/forum/questions/60583/selective-filter-load-from-stream-or-component.

Please feel free to subscribe yourself to Load rules (44004) or As a user I want to selectively filter the load to only include files matching a particular naming pattern (173153).
