A tutorial is available
for each subprovider. Each tutorial illustrates some of the common
use cases for each Rational® product that uses
the Rational CM API. Common use cases include:
- For the Rational ClearQuest® subprovider:
- Create, modify, and delete a record (for example, create a defect
change request record type)
- Select an action and change a state
- Create a query, select a query and execute it; also, modify an
existing query and save it with a new name
- Create, modify, and delete field values in a record
- ClearCase® subprovider:
- Create, populate, and remove Web views (ClearCase Remote
Client (CCRC) or ClearCase Web views)
- Operate on elements within Web views (such as checkout, checkin,
and hijack operations)
- Navigate VOB-object hierarchies and inquire about properties of Rational ClearCase objects
See the \samples subdirectory in <install-dir>\common\com.ibm.rational.stp.cmapi.zip for
