Importing ReqIF packages
A Requirements Interchange Format package is an XML file
that has been exported from a Rational® DOORS® database. When you receive
a Requirements Interchange Format package, you import it into your Rational DOORS database. The modules that are contained
in the file are created in your database.
Before you begin
About this task
Note: Each object in your Rational DOORS database
has a unique absolute number. After an absolute number has been assigned,
that number is not used again. When you import a package, the objects
in the package are treated as new objects and assigned new unique
absolute numbers.
Procedure
- In the database explorer, select the project or folder where you want to import the package, and then click The .Import ReqIF Package File window is displayed.
- Browse to the package that you want to import.
- Click OK. The Import ReqIF Package window is displayed.
- In the Import ReqIF Package window, complete the required fields. The fields that are available depend on whether Rational DOORS recognizes the package as being associated with a definition that exists in the project.
- Click Import.
