Learn how to develop software with DevOps Code ClearCase® and ClearCase Remote Client.
Developing software with ClearTeam® Explorer
DevOps Code ClearCase® provides two clients for software developers: local and remote. Each client supports different mechanisms for accessing source-controlled filesystem objects. Both clients provide graphical and command-line interfaces.
Working in the team environment with DevOps Code ClearCase®
The ClearTeam® Explorer supports a variety of team development tasks.
Working with resources under DevOps Code ClearCase® source control
You can use UCM or base ClearCase® to share your work with a team.
Using UCM
Unified Change Management (UCM) is a structured development process that is based on DevOps Code ClearCase® tools.
Modifying resources in a ClearCase® view
The workflow for modifying resources in a ClearCase® view involves checking them out and checking them in.
Working with UCM activities
A UCM activity identifies the set of versions created during a specific development task. Every change to a resource in a UCM project must be associated with an activity.
Create a ClearQuest® record with a UCM activity
Create a new ClearQuest® record by creating a new activity in a ClearQuest-enabled UCM project.

Create a ClearQuest record with a UCM activity

Create a new ClearQuest® record by creating a new activity in a ClearQuest-enabled UCM project.

About this task

You can create a new ClearQuest record from the ClearTeam® Explorer by creating a new activity within a ClearCase® view of a ClearQuest-enabled UCM project. Note that you must be using the UCM integration with ClearQuest in order to create a new ClearQuest record.

Procedure

To create a new ClearQuest record:

Select a ClearCase view associated with a ClearQuest-enabled UCM project.
Click the New Activity icon in the UCM toolbar or, when performing a check in, check out, or add to source control operation, click the New button among the activities options on the Checkin, Checkout, or Add to Source Control dialog boxes.

Results

A dialog box appears enabling you to select a record type. After specifying and saving the new ClearQuest record as a new activity, the current activity for the view is set to the new activity.
