Hi,

Have anyone used the baseline set function for incremental development?
A problem is that a new module baseline is created for the baseline set although nothing has been changed in the module.
I would like to be able to choose from existing baselines and add to a baseline set, but that is not possible.
Do anyone have any experience on how to use baseline set, and do you think it works good?

From my experience w/baseline sets I avoid them as the plague.  There was an incident here at work not too long ago where a user was doing a baseline set and his DOORS client crashed because the memory was exhausted.  Due to the crash, his modules were corrupted, and he eventually had to recreate all the modules and traceability links from scratch again.

This happen in DOORS 7.1, and I don't remember what patch he had installed.  Also, I am unsure if Telelogic did anything to prevent modules from being corrupted if a baseline set was ended prematurely.fficeffice" />>>

If you don“t use baseline sets how do you preserve how the links were at a certain fase in your project?
If you go back to se how the links were i.e for a month ago, you only see the links to the current module, not how they were to that specific version. What can we use instead of baseline sets?

You would have to capture links to specific Baselines as attributes. I.e. capture the links as an attribute for all the modules you are interested in and then baseline them. You could then copy out the baselines at some point in the future to new modules and rebuild the links at that point in time.

We have started using baseline sets and haven't had any problems apart from the bug which was fixed in the latest patch where basline set definitions were dispappearing.
