This tutorial module illustrates how to use the Rational® CM
API to retrieve a record from a user database.
After you have identified an available user database and are logged
in to it, you can use the Rational CM API to access resources in a user database.
This module provides an example for retrieving a record. The code example
in this module extends the previous example (running a query by using the ExecuteQuery method)
by adding the ability to view all the fields of a record returned by a query,
not just the ones in the query's display fields.
Learning objectives
After completing the
lessons in this module you will accomplish the following objectives:
- Learn about the Rational CM API object and programming models for Rational ClearQuest® records
and fields
- Understand the Rational CM API interfaces for records and properties
- Learn about property requests
- Understand how to write client application code for viewing records
Time required
This module should take approximately
30 minutes to complete.
Prerequisites
To complete this module, you will
need to have completed the previous module, where you learned how to run a
query and process the result set.
