IBM® Rational® Rhapsody® works
with any configuration management archive in Microsoft Common Source Code Control (SCC)
mode (Microsoft Windows only) or other tools
in batch mode.
About this task
To manage source files, you might use any
of the following configuration management tools to manage your source
files:
Note: For Linux users,
you can use batch mode configuration management, and IBM Rational ClearCase. Rational ClearCase is
supported in Linux.
For more information about SCC mode and batch mode,
see Source Code Control (SCC) mode and batch mode defined.
Procedure
To access your source-controlled files:
- Be certain that your source control archive
is accessible from the machine that you are using for this comparison.
- Start Rational Rhapsody and
open a project.
- Open the Configuration Items window. Choose .
The look of the window and the available
operations depend on the type of configuration management tool you
are using and whether you are running in batch or SCC mode. See Configuration management operations for the list of configuration
management operations supported in either mode. The buttons in the
Configuration Items window apply commands directly to the configuration
management tool. The response of the specific tool is displayed in
the Output window or, in the case of SCC tools, in message boxes specially
designed for this purpose. Note also that the Version number
of the controlled files does not display in this window.
