Adding keywords to the available keywords list

You can add keywords to the list of available keywords.

Before you begin

You must be a user with the ccm_admin role.

About this task

The following rules apply when you add keywords:
  • The keyword expansion feature expects an open and close % character that is on one line. Therefore, keywords must be single-line attributes, such as type string or time attributes. Text or multi-line attributes are not supported.
  • Keywords must be based on attributes. You cannot define a keyword that is based on a Rational® Synergy relation, such as a related task.

Procedure

To add keywords to the available keywords list:

  1. Start a Rational Synergy session with your role set to ccm_admin.
  2. Query for the attribute type in the database:

    ccm query -t attype -n ascii

  3. Run the ccm attr command to modify the keywords attribute of the ascii attype object that is returned from the query:

    ccm attr -m keywords @

  4. Add a line for the new keyword.

    For example:

    release release
