Creating an independent CCBuild record

Before you begin
About this task
A CCBuild record is a stateful, nonreusable record that you use to build and promote a single Rational® ClearCase® view. A CCBuild record is used in conjunction with a CCBuildConfig record.
  1. Click ClearQuest > Create > youruseridanddbname > Create CCBuild.
  2. In the CCBuild window, do one of the following:
    • To populate the fields in the CCBuild window with saved defaults, select the name of the template that contains the defaults from the Templates list and click the Load button. You can then edit the newly populated fields as needed. For example, you might edit at least the Headline and Description fields to distinguish the new record from existing CCBuild records. When you finish editing this new record, proceed to step 6.
    • If you do not want to populate the fields in the CCBuild window with the defaults, proceed to the step 3.
  3. In the CCBuild window, click the Main tab:
    ClearQuest ID
    This uneditable field displays the Rational ClearQuest® ID of the CCBuild record you are creating.
    State
    This uneditable field displays the build state of the CCBuild record you are creating. New records are created in the Submitted state.
    Owner
    Select an owner for this CCBuild record.
    Headline
    Enter a meaningful headline for this CCBuild record.
    Description
    Enter a meaningful description for this CCBuild record.
  4. Click the ClearCase tab.
  5. In the CCBuild window, click the ClearCase tab:
    CrossPlatformBuild Parent
    This uneditable field displays the Rational ClearQuest IDs of any parent records with which the CCBuild record being created is associated. However, the IDs do not appear until you finish creating the parent record.
    Configuration
    From the Configuration field, select the CCBuildConfig record to use with this CCBuild record.
  6. Optional: You can save the entries for the record you are creating as defaults by selecting the arrow next to the Load button and clicking New. You then name the template in the New Record Template window and click OK. In the CCBuild window, click the arrow next to the Load button and select Save as Default. By saving these entries, you can populate the fields of CCBuild records you create in the future by selecting the template that contains the defaults from the Template list and clicking the Load button.
  7. Click OK to create the CCBuild record.
