Tool Mentor: Creating a Development Workspace Using Rational ClearCase















This tool mentor describes how to create a private workspace using Rational ClearCase for individual work.


Tool: Rational ClearCase






Main Description



Overview This tool mentor describes how to create a private workspace for individual work. A "private workspace" is isolated from the workspaces of other team members. It provides a place for a developer to make changes to the system without seeing or affecting other developers' changes. In the UCM model of ClearCase, private workspaces, called development workspaces, allow you to work on UCM activities in isolation from the rest of  the project. Generally, each project member creates their own development work area at the time they join a UCM project. Private work areas can also be created at any time in the course of working on a UCM project. UCM development workspaces are made up of a stream and an associated view. UCM streams determine which versions of elements appear in any view configured by that stream. Streams also maintain a list of UCM baselines and activities. Views provide work areas for tasks such as editing and compiling source files, document formatting, and so on. This tool mentor is applicable when running Microsoft Windows. Tool Steps The following steps describe how to create a development workspace when you join a UCM project. The general steps are: Start the Join Project Wizard Specify stream and view information Attach a view to a stream   See the topic Join Project Wizard in ClearCase online Help for an overview of the wizard. Detailed help for each step of the wizard is also available from the Help topic for each screen. For more information on UCM views and streams, see these topics in ClearCase online Help.  About streams   About views 1. Start the Join Project Wizard From the Windows task bar, select Start > Programs > Rational Software > Rational ClearCase > Project Explorer. From ClearCase Project Explorer, click Toolbox tab > UCM > Join Project. The Join Project Wizard appears. Select the project you want to join and click Next to proceed to the next step of the wizard. 2. Specify stream and view information Specify a stream name, a view name, a storage location for the view, and the view type (snapshot) for your development work area. The ClearCase Join Project Wizard provides default information for these values. Note: The Join Project Wizard also prompts you for information required to create your view for the project's integration work area.   For more information on view storage, see the topic To choose a location for a snapshot view directory in ClearCase online Help. 3. Attach a view to a stream The Join Project Wizard prompts you to confirm the choices you have made, and attaches the development view and stream you specified. Click OK to confirm your choices and proceed.   For more information on associating views and streams, see the ClearCase online Help topic > To attach a new view to can existing stream.
