How to Build a CM and ALM Strategy Joe Farah writes that a next-generation CM and ALM strategy may seem aggressive, but it will help ensure that you're happy with the result. It will make sure that you deal with the entire problem domain from an organization perspective, rather than just the part your team is traditionally comfortable with.

Using Perl, is it possible to query ClearCase for all mounted VOBs and the files/folders the different VOBs contain? The code I worked out by now is the following:
use strict;
use Win32::OLE;
print "Instantiating CAL";
my $CCApp = Win32::OLE->new("ClearCase.Application") or
die "Can't create ClearCase application object via call to Win32::OLE->new(): $!";
print "Getting VOBs";
my @CCVob = $CCApp->VOBs();
my $CCVobLength = @CCVob;
print "CCVobLength = $CCVobLength";
With this script I can see that there is one VOB within the CCApp. But I can't figure out how to continue and query the VOB for its name, type or anything useful.
I guess I should add that I'm pretty new to Perl and used to develop software using C, C++ and Java...
There I would cast the element to the appropriate type and then use some interface function to continue...
Thanks in advance for any answer and regards

Can I override required fields through scripting in SBM Teamtrack? Hello,
I want to give the user a checkbox to override required fields. For instance, if its an emergency software install I don't want the user to select a scheduled release date.
If that's not possible, is there a way to dynically change the form field label color?
Right now to solve this problem I have a script that generates error message based on the field logic. For instance, if override is not selected the user must fill in a date value. If they don't my script pushes out an error on the form. I have pre-colored the text to red, but, if the user fills out the form the label is still red.
Any suggestions will be helpful.
Thanks,
processman

Can/should Data Management be part of the Configuration Management process? I am currently working on a Financial system which is in development. It is a batch process. Data goes in one end, goes through a number of processes and a report is output at the end containing numbers.
What happens is that when the data file arrives, a developer then manually "cleans it up", it gets loaded into another application where the data is processed, it then gets manually "enriched" by somebody who cuts and pastes data from another file and merges the two, it passes on down the line and the next person may find a mistake in the data so it goes back to the previous step to get fixed and so on it goes on.
I have all the "applications/ scripts" that process the data under Version/change management, but nobody in the company appears to be worried about managing the data itself at the intermediate steps as they believe it will all eventually be automated. Should I be concerned ? |

Why does ClearCase Explorer fail to launch? I've done this for couple clients on Windows XP SP3, but in one of them, ClearCase Explorer failed to launch. Everything else works fine, e.g. project explorer.
IBM indicated this might be related to DEP setting but it is NOT.
The version installed is ClearCase 7.1.2.
Anyone has the same experience.
