To provide Crystal Reports with ClearQuest authenticated
access to ClearQuest data sources, copy the required ClearQuest Reporting
Driver plug-ins installed with any ClearQuest feature to a directory
accessible to the Crystal Reports application.
Before you begin
The ClearQuest Reporting Driver is packaged as an Eclipse
plug-in archive named:
com.ibm.rational.clearquest.jdbc_<version>.<timestamp>.jar
This plug-in archive is installed automatically with any
ClearQuest component. If you have not installed any ClearQuest features
on the system you are configuring, use the Rational Installation Manager
to install one.

Procedure
To obtain the required files for the ClearQuest Reporting
Driver:
- Open a command prompt window.
- Create a directory in which to store the ClearQuest Reporting
Driver runtime files:
mkdir CQReportDriver-dir
- Navigate to the new directory:
cd CQReportDriver-dir
- Run these statements to copy the required ClearQuest Reporting
Driver runtime files into the new directory.
copy "%CLEARQUEST_HOME%\reports\driver\plugins\com.ibm.rational.clearquest.jdbc_version.jar" cqjdbc.jar
copy "%CLEARQUEST_HOME%\cqjni.jar"
copy "%RATIONAL_COMMON%\stp*.jar"
When you run these commands, you will
see output similar to these statements:C:\CQReportDriver-dir>copy "C:\Program Files\ibm\RationalSDLC\ClearQuest\reports\driver\plugins\com.ibm.rational.clearquest.jdbc_version.jar" cqjdbc.jar
C:\CQReportDriver-dir>copy "c:\Program Files\ibm\RationalSDLC\ClearQuest\cqjni.jar"
