Clash detection results dialog (Integration for IBM Rational DOORS)
Integration for IBM Rational DOORS makes use of the Clash Detection Results dialog only when the Early Clash Analysis check box is selected on the Common Mapping Options page. If the Early Clash Analysis check box is cleared, Integration for IBM Rational DOORS uses the Clash Detection During Synchronization dialog during the synchronization.

The Clash Detection Results dialog identifies clashes that will occur in the synchronization and allows you to specify how you want those clashes to be resolved before starting the synchronization process.
A clash can occur in the following circumstances:
• When the synchronization direction is Modeler -> DOORS and the DOORS object or link has been changed.
• When the synchronization direction is DOORS -> Modeler and the Modeler item or relationship has been changed.
• When the synchronization direction is bi-directional and a Modeler item and its associated DOORS object has been changed in both environments, or when a Modeler relationship and its association DOORS link has been changed in both environments.
Through the Clash Detection Results dialog you can specify how you want to resolve each clash:
• Select a clash and then click the appropriate toolbar button for the required resolution. 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.
• You can use the Set Multiple Resolutions dialog to set the resolution of many clashes at the same time. To open the Set Multiple Resolutions dialog, click the 
Set a Resolution for Multiple Clashes button.
Set a Resolution for Multiple Clashes button.• If you want to make changes in Modeler or DOORS before starting the synchronization: select the clash, click the 
View in Modeler or 
View in DOORS toolbar button as appropriate and then make the required changes. In the Clash Detection Results dialog, click the Refresh button to update the displayed data.
View in Modeler or View in DOORS toolbar button as appropriate and then make the required changes. In the Clash Detection Results dialog, click the Refresh button to update the displayed data.After you have set a resolution for each 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. Note that for deleted Modeler items the full scoped name is shown
• Modeler Model column:
◦ For an item clash, specifies its status.
◦ For a property clash, specifies the Modeler value.
Note that 'Different' means that the change dates are the same, 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.
Note that {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.
• DOORS Module column:
◦ For an item clash, specifies its status.
◦ For a property clash, specifies the DOORS value.
Note that 'Different' means that the change dates are the same, but a difference has been detected.
The dialog has the following buttons:
• Undefined button - clears the resolution that has been set for the selected clash.
After clearing a resolution for a clash you must specify a resolution that clash (and all clashes) before you can continue with the synchronization.
• Ignore button - sets the resolution of the selected clash to Ignore.
When set to ignore, Integration for IBM Rational DOORS 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 DOORS object was last updated its value is used.
• Use Modeler Values button - sets the resolution of the selected clash to Use Modeler Values.
• Use DOORS Values button - sets the resolution of the selected clash to Use DOORS Values.
• Delete from Modeler button - sets the resolution of the selected clash to Delete from Modeler.
• Delete from DOORS button - sets the resolution of the selected clash to Delete from DOORS.
• ·Set a Resolution for Multiple Clashes button - opens the Set Multiple Resolutions dialog to set the resolutions of multiple clashes on the Clash Detection Results dialog in one operation.

• 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 in Modeler button - selects the item associated with the clash in Modeler.
• View in DOORS button - selects the object associated with the clash in DOORS.
• Refresh button - makes the Clash Detection Results dialog analyze the synchronization again using the latest data in Modeler and DOORS. Any changes to the data shown in the Clash Detection Results dialog are shown in red text.
