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 run 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 to run by using the entry_name option. The entry_name option
must match the name attribute specified for an <interface> element
in your adaptor template. If the <interface> element specified
in entry_name does not exist or cannot be found, the default
<interface> element is run instead. 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 run. To
run a different interface, in the adaptor template, set the default
attribute to true (default="true") on the interface that you do want
to run.
Examples
.source MyClearCaseAdaptor
.source MyClearCaseAdaptor "By Date"
