Is there a way to create surrogate links from one module to another? If so what is the process?

Can you explain what you mean by a surrogate link?
I am familiar with the concept of surogate modules which are used for tool integration, but I have not heard this term before. ------------------------- Tony Goodman http://www.smartdxl.com |

I've only heard of surrogate links, never used them so I might fall short describing them. I'll describe what I want to do: If there is a link between 2 modules say A and B, I want that link to also be referenced by surrogate to a third module say C. Ideally I would like any changes to the modules A and/or B, to be enunciated and somehow flagged by surrogate link in module C.

To issue some advice, I would like to understand the information model which your request is based on.
To "mirror" a link between two modules in a third one, this must be in a very close relation to one of the others, e.g. because it holds a copy of, say, module B. What do you want to achieve with what you call "surrogate links" (indeed, I'm quite sure they don't exist)? Edited: 22-Mar-2006 at 14:04 by Anton Drexler |

Possible what is being described as a surrogate link is the "Conceptual" Link between a surrogate module and an application file that exists outside of DOORS such as a ROSE Model.
If this "Conceptual" link is what is being referred to as a surrogate link then the link does not physically exists as a DOORS Link. The "Conceptual" Link is usually implemented by OLE automation using either visual basic or dxl. |

From your description of what you want (20 march) you may be better served by 'suspect links'. A link becomes suspect when the source or target object is changed. For example, the source of the link may be a requirement and the target may be the test to verify that the requirement has been met. A late change in the requirement could invalidate the test, so the link is marked as suspect until the issue is resolved. Any modification to the source or target of a link causes the link to be flagged as suspect immediately." |
