You can search for the artifacts and the design files stored
on the Rational Team Concert™ Server, even if they do not exist in your workspace.
You can use the search results to load your local workspace.
Before you begin
The Rational
Team Concert Server must be started and a repository connection
must exist.
About this task
There are two types of server searches:
- Artifact search. The search can be run on all the files indexed
by Rational Programming Patterns. It can then run on design or generated
files. .
- Design search. The search is limited to the design files. It does
not find the files generated from these design files.
Procedure
- In the Design Explorer view, click
in the toolbar or the Search menu.
For an artifact search, select the Server Artifact search tab.
For a design search, select the Server Design search tab.
- Enter your search criteria in this tab.
- Click Search to start searching.
Results
The artefacts stored on the Rational Team Concert server,
in the selected stream, are searched for. The artefacts that match
the search criteria are found, even if they have not been downloaded
to your workspace.
When the search is complete, your focus automatically
switches to the Server Artifact Search or Server
Design Search view, where the results of the search are
displayed.
From here, you can perform the following actions
- View the artefacts found by the search, in read-only mode.
- Load your local workspace with the artifacts found be the search,
and their required artifacts.
- Request the server references of the artifacts found by the search.
