The following improvements have been made to version 7.6 of the IBM® SCLM Developer Toolkit:
- SCLM Views
- Use the main SCLM repository view to populate the SCLM project
using the new populate icon. The project information
is tabulated in the resource view. Selecting the wanted project automatically
populates the other SCLM views.
A new SCLM Member view
is available in addition to the traditional Explorer and Developer views.
You
have access to all appropriate SCLM functionality from any of these
views by right clicking the project levels or members. Select members
from any of the three views to update the new look Properties table.
Included is additional member information such as date-changed and
security subproject information.
Project filters are no longer
lost when switching between views as all the views are updated simultaneously
and can be individually selected for use.
- SCLM Member Description
- In base SCLM, you can define SCLM member descriptions. Browse
or edit the description using the SCLM edit profile command (sprof)
under Edit of a member. SCLM Developer Toolkit,
through the SCLM perspective (Developer, Explorer or Member views),
allows you to browse or edit a members SCLM description field.
- SCLM Member Security
- Base SCLM allows you to associate members with a subproject. You
can control security on member access by defining the XFACILIT class
(RACF® or equivalent) to have
rules associated with the subproject definition.
You can store
supporting members
You can store supporting members in SCLM
with an associated subproject that has been defined in SCLM under
the FLMPROJ macro for the project. The subproject
keyword is defined on the MIGRATE and SAVE checkin services.
Additionally any subproject associated with a member is displayed
when issuing an SCLM status on the member through SCLM Developer Toolkit.
- Build Forge® and
SCLM support
- Rational® Build Forge provides automated scheduling
of jobs and builds on various platforms. SCLM Developer Toolkit provides
support for requesting SCLM builds or SCLM repository services on z/OS® from Build Forge. As Build Forge is used primarily for scheduled
builds and log retrieval the initial SCLM functions that are used
are the SCLM Build and Promote services. Samples are provided for
demonstrating SCLM Builds and Promotes from the Developer for System z® Build Forge plug-in to SCLM with the
log output retrieved back to the client. See the SCLM Administration
Guide for further information about Build Forge support.
- SCLM SEARCH support
- In base SCLM you can search a combination of SCLM groups, types
and members for certain strings under 3.13 SCLM Search. Using the
SCLM perspective (Developer, Explorer or Member views), you can search
populated members for various strings. Additional support is also
provided for a local search/find down the populated view. In the SCLM
Repository View, right click anywhere and select the search
item. To pre-populate the search panel, issue the search against a project, group or type node
in one of the SCLM Views (Explorer, Developer, Member).
