Configuring Rational Focal Point and Rational DOORS

After installing the Rational® DOORS® for Rational Focal Point™ Interface plug-in, you must configure Rational DOORS to enable integration with Rational Focal Point.

Configuring Rational Focal Point

Procedure

  1. Create two attributes of type Text in your workspace. These attributes must be visible in the views to be synchronized. The contents of these attributes should not be modified manually.
    1. Create an attribute of type Text for Rational DOORS record ID that the element is synchronized with.
    2. Create an Attribute of type Text for the Rational DOORS record link.
  2. In the view that you want to synchronize, make sure that the Last Changed Date attribute is visible.
  3. Enable the web services.
  4. Set the login URL to the correct address in the Rational Focal Point administration interface.

Configuring Rational DOORS

Procedure

Create one attribute in each Rational DOORS module that you want to synchronize to.
  1. Create an attribute of type STRING for the workspace ID of the Rational Focal Point element.
  2. Create an attribute of type STRING for the internal element ID of the Rational Focal Point element that the Rational ClearQuest® is synchronized with.
Note: Modify these attributes when performing the synchronization. This attribute should not be manually edited by users. The synchronizer does not require an attribute for the URL to Rational Focal Point, as the synchronizer creates an external link to the Rational Focal Point element.
