.source

Description
Use the .source command to add an adaptor for a source code application to a project step. A source code adaptor is a Build Forge object; it is based on the adaptor template for a source code application. The adaptor code for the step is executed when the project runs.
Syntax
.source <adaptor_name> [entry_name]
The <adaptor_name> is required; it is the name assigned to the adaptor in the Management Console. The <adaptor_name> case should match the case used in the console.
If your adaptor template has multiple interface functions, specify the one that you want to execute by using the entry_name option. The entry_name must match the name attribute specified for interface element in your adaptor template. In the following example, the entry name is By Date.
If you are using an adaptor link, the adaptor is called automatically and the first interface function in the adaptor template is executed. To execute a different interface, edit the adaptor template to set the default attribute to true (default="true") on the interface that you want to execute.
Examples
.source MyClearCaseAdaptor
.source MyClearCaseAdaptor "By Date"
