Does RDNG displaying the links of Rational Team Concert source control files to CLM artifacts


Todd Swan (112) | asked Feb 10 '17, 3:59 p.m.

 From the Eclipse client SCM files can be linked to DNG requirements.

Question:
Once the file has been linked to the requirement, it is easy using Eclipse to see or use the link.  Is it possible to open the DNG project and access the link back to the Rational Team Concert source control file from the requirement?

As an operator it seems that this might be an operation that should be available. Using the DNG requirements link to RTC controlled files to access those files.  

The help does not state this operation is available but should it be or is it?

Unfortunately, the DNG dev team was not able to contain the display of the backlinks to RTC files in 6.0.3, so those backlinks are not visible in the DNG 6.0.3 GUI.   But the design intent is for the backlinks to RTC files be visible, just as the backlinks to RTC work items are visible.

DNG artifacts can be linked to RTC work items. Supported link types here are Tracked By, Implemented By, and Affected By. There are no links to RTC source control elements.

I know that in 6.0.3 a feature was introduced in RTC eclipse client to relate source elements to RQM test artifacts and DNG requirements if configuration management is enabled and the components are in a global configuration. Don't think DNG makes those relations visible.
