[SCM] - Creating a Component Set to be loaded together

Jose Miguel Ordax Cassa (2.4k●4●126●100) | asked May 13 '09, 5:16 a.m.
Hi, I was trying to figure out if following scenario is possible and how
to achieve it with RTC. I have different reusable components (internally
they are Java projects). Some Components require other Components to
compile. So for example, reusable Component B, internally uses reusable
Component A.

Now, I have a developer who need reusable Component B, but he is not
aware about the existence of Component A. Is there a way to
automatically force the load of Component A, when a developer loads into
his workspace Component B?

I am looking for something similar to Project Set File concept used by
Eclipse with CVS: http://wiki.eclipse.org/PSF

Note: perhaps this concept can be "implemented" in a different way in
RTC not using Components, and I am in the bad track.

Thanks in advance,

Chemi.

Use a stream. Instead of telling the developer to load a component, tell them which stream has the configuration they need. As a team or project, your job is to keep a set of blessed streams configured so that it's easy for developers to get started, just point them at the stream they have to create a workspace from.

Project set files are external to the SCM system, so they are a lot harder to share.

Ok, understood. So here the philosophy is: create and setup a stream,
instead of a PSF. What is more, using Follow-up actions, perhaps the
load can be done automatically when a developer gets into a team. Correct?

Thanks a lot,

Chemi.
