Clash detection during synchronization dialog (Integration for PTC Integrity Lifecycle Manager)
The Clash Detection During Synchronization dialog reports a clash that has occurred during the synchronization and allows you to specify how you want that clash to be resolved before continuing the synchronization process.
A clash can occur in the following circumstances:
• When a synchronization direction is bidirectional and a Modeler item and its associated PTC Integrity Lifecycle Manager item has been changed in both environments, or when a Modeler relationship and its associated PTC Integrity Lifecycle Manager link has been changed in both environments.
Through the Clash Detection During Synchronization dialog you can specify how you want to resolve a clash:
• To set the resolution of a clash and select the clash and then click the Use Modeler Values or Use Integrity Lifecycle Manager Values toolbar button as required.
Alternatively, you can select a clash, click the selected cell in the Resolution column, select the required resolution from the drop-down list, and then press the Enter key.
• To view textual differences in full and select the clash and then click the View Property Clash button. Alternatively, double-click the clash.
If you set the resolution of the item to ignore, ignore applies only to the clash that is being reported, not the item.
After you have set a resolution for the reported clash, you can click the OK button to continue with the synchronization.
The dialog has the following columns:
• Name column — specifies the name of the Modeler item or property.
• Modeler Model column:
◦ For an item clash, specifies its status.
◦ For a property clash, specifies the Modeler value.
Different means that the last change dates are before the last synchronization date, but a difference has been detected.
• Resolution column — shows the resolution that has been set for an item or property.
To set a resolution through a toolbar button, select the entry and then click the appropriate button.
To set a resolution through the cell, select the entry and then click the Resolution cell. From the drop-down list select the required resolution and then press the Enter key.
{defined by properties} is shown for an item when the resolution of that item has been defined through the set resolution of its properties, and {defined by object} is shown for a property when the resolution of that property has been defined through the set resolution of that property's item.
• Document column:
◦ For an item clash, specifies its status.
◦ For a property clash, specifies the PTC Integrity Lifecycle Manager property value.
Different means that the last change dates are before the last synchronization date, but a difference has been detected.
The dialog has the following buttons and drop-down lists:
• Undefined button — not used on this dialog.
• Ignore button — sets the resolution of the selected clash to Ignore. When set to ignore, Integration for Lifecycle Manager does not take any action for the selected clash.
• Use Latest Object's Values button — sets the resolution of the selected clash to Use Latest Object's Values, that is, if the Modeler item was last updated its value is used, if the PTC Integrity Lifecycle Manager item was last updated its value is used.
• Use Modeler Values button — sets the resolution of the selected clash to Use Modeler Values.
• Use Integrity Lifecycle Manager Values button — sets the resolution of the selected clash to Use Integrity Lifecycle Manager Values.
• Delete from Modeler button — sets the resolution of the selected clash to Delete from Modeler.
• Delete from Integrity Lifecycle Manager button — sets the resolution of the selected clash to Delete from Integrity Lifecycle Manager.
• Set a Resolution for Multiple Clashes button — not used on this dialog.
• Navigate to Previous Unresolved Clash button — selects the previous unresolved clash for you to specify its resolution.
• Navigate to Next Unresolved Clash button — selects the next unresolved clash for you to specify its resolution.
• View Property Clash button — opens the Property Clash Viewer dialog for you to view the Modeler value and Document value side-by-side.
• View in Modeler button — not used on this dialog.
• View in Integrity Lifecycle Manager button — not used on this dialog.
• Refresh button — not used on this dialog.
• Apply To drop-down list — specifies whether the resolution of a clash is applied to other clashes that may occur during the synchronization:
◦ This Clash Only means that the resolution you set does not affect future clashes during the synchronization.
◦ All Clashes in This Mapping means that the resolution you set will be automatically applied to future clashes of the same type that occur during the current synchronization using the current mapping.
◦ All Clashes in All Mappings means that the resolution you set will be automatically applied to future clashes of the same type that occur during the current synchronization using any mapping (a synchronization may comprise many mappings).
