I am working on a large project where we have about 200 modules that need
to have the same structure with the same types, attributes and views and associated DXL.
As from today we are using DOORS 7.0

Does anyone know of a utility or means to
1) check each module against a standard module to check that it has all the appropriate
types (included enumerated types), attributes and views

2) to update non compliant modules, to ensure they have the same types, attributes and
views as the standard module.

Without such as tool, its a lot of work to add a new view to so many modules, especially if it uses
DXL or needs complex filters and sorts.

I have a suspicion that copying filters and sorts between views is very difficult.


Thanks for any help,

Bob Lewis

Michelle,

Thanks for recognizing the free DXL utilities available from my company.

The "Copy Views" utility does check each module against a standard module to check that it has all the appropriate
types (included enumerated types), attributes and views so that a View can be copied.

The "Copy Views" utility does NOT update non compliant modules to ensure they have the same types and attributes. When we authored "Copy Views", we had other processes in place to ensure that modules had standard attributes and types.

"Copy Views" does copy filters, but it does not copy sorts.

If anyone feels up to adding the missing features to this free utility, please let me know.
