I have two scenarios, both easy to setup. I use Eclipse to manage changes.

1 I have a workspace (release workspace) with flow target to develop,
   accept all changes, then change flow target to release and deliver
   or you can have the release stream flow target to this workspace
    you can choose which changes to accept/deliver

2. no workspace. the release stream has a flow target of the develop stream
    changes made to develop will appear as pending changes to release.
    so you accept those changes at the release stream.

 Hi  Thank you for helping . Can you explain  the option 2? What is flow target? Can you explain  step by step how the step 2?   Best regards, Oren

a flow target is the linkage between two containers (workspace or stream) right click on a stream or workspace, select Open scroll down to the Flow Targets section (bottom of page) this is the list of sources/destinations changes will/can flow from/to this workspace/stream. this is where the pending changes view in Eclipse gets its information from. you can modify this table (sometimes there is a right click action on some operations to do this) at any time..  accept from one source (develop), then deliver to another (release).   this article may help with some of the topics u are asking about https://jazz.net/library/article/40

You may want to read up on some of the library content to familiarize yourself with RTC SCM terminology. https://jazz.net/library/article/41 https://jazz.net/library/article/40 Option 2 is something added in RTC 3.0.1. You can show a stream in Pending Changes view to track and flow changes. See https://jazz.net/library/article/649#Example_showPendingChanges

in  the 2 solutions I must  create release workspace.   Is there option to transfer data between  2 stream without create release  workspace  ?

option 2 uses no workspace between streams

Multi-Stream synchronization can be achieved using Flow Targets.
Flow Targets are defined in any stream/repository. As the name suggests, Flow Targets are the targets where the change sets will flow.

To add a flow target,
  • Right click on the stream1 and open it.
  • Scroll down till you see Flow Target option.
  • Add stream2 in it and Save the changes.

Now when any change is delivered to stream1, it will show as an outgoing change from stream1 to stream2.
You may have to perform an extra step to see this outgoing change. (right click on stream1 and click on Show->Pending Changes).
Once you see the outgoing change, deliver it. All the changes will flow to Stream2.

Yes ,In stream1  have Stream 2 as a flow target. After I deliver in stream1 I am  expected to see the change set   in   outgoing change  in pendeing change panel of stream 2. Can you have any idea why i dont see the change set ?

pending changes is a single view of everything.. so it sounds like you have not done stream 2 -> show ->pending changes because these would be incoming changes to stream 2..

does stream 2 have stream 1 as a flow target?

Can you paste a screenshot of flow targets of both the streams. Normally, if Stream1 has stream2 as flow target, then whenever you deliver anything to stream1, (and do Stream1->Show->Pending changes for the first time) you will see the stream to stream flow.

I am using  in Visual studio 2010 editor .

And after I do the following step

  • Right click on the stream1 and open it.
  • Scroll down till you see Flow Target option.
  • Add stream2 in it and Save the changes.
  • I deliver a change set in Stram1
  • I am go to TeamArtifact -->Source Control-->Stream2-->Track in Pending Change.

And the  change set  doesn't appear in outgoing of  Stream2 

Do you have any idea?

it would be Incoming for Stream 2..  Outgoing for Stream 1. > I deliver a change set in Stram1 and u mean I deliver a change set TO Stream1 from some repository workspace, right?

I don't understand I am deliver the change set to Stream 1. and I am expected to recieve the change set in Stream 2  in outgoing ? am I missed something?

you have two containers for changes A and B you put a change in bucket A. if A and B are connected, and you want them to be in synch, you must take some manual actions.. from A, there are changes that need to go to bucket B (these are OUTGOING from bucket A's perspective).  AND they are INCOMING from bucket B's perspective. you can DELIVER from A to B (from A), or ACCEPT from A into B (from B). If A knows about B, then there would be pending changes OUTGOING. if B does NOT know about A, then there would NOT be 'INCOMING' changes. Consider a company shipping u a package.. THEY know its coming to u today.. but YOU do not know. far as I know, there s no AUTOMATIC deliver or accept between containers.

>you can DELIVER from A to B (from A), or ACCEPT from A into B (from B). On my Eclipse UI I see those operations when I click on the pending change depending on which entry I click on
