Description
A shared subproject is a subproject that is a member of more than one project. Windchill RV&S allows you to share a subproject between two or more projects by referencing the original subproject. A shared subproject allows you to access common members across many projects. Shared subprojects are not required to be located within the same directory structure or project hierarchy.
A shared subproject functions the same as an unshared subproject and is accessible by the same commands.
Shared subprojects that were created in a previous version of Windchill RV&S (formerly MKS Source or Source Windchill RV&S Standard Edition) are detected as they are accessed by Windchill RV&S without disrupting the operation. The format of these subprojects is retained until you change or update it to the new format by re-configuring it.
Options
This command takes the universal options available to all
si commands, as well as some general options. See the
options reference page for descriptions.
• --sharedProject=project location
specifies the path and name of the subproject you want to share. For details on how to specify a project, see the
-P option on the the
options reference page.
• --[no]preserveCase
uses the same case that exists on the file system when specifying a destination directory in a Sandbox. By default, the destination directory uses the same case.
• --[no|confirm]closeCP
closes the change package after command completion.
• -rsubproject revision
• --subprojectRevision=subproject revision
• specifies the checkpoint number (for build subprojects). For example, 1.5. This option is used with --type=build.
|
|
This option cannot be used if you specify a project using a keyword string for the --sharedProject option. This option is also mutually exclusive with the --subprojectDevelopmentPath or --variant options.
|
• --subprojectDevelopmentPath=subproject development path name
• --variant=subproject development path name
identifies the development path of a variant subproject. This is a label that was associated with a branch of the subproject by
si createdevpath. Paths that include spaces must be enclosed by quotes. The following characters may not be used in a development path: \n, \r, \t, :, [', '], #. This option is used with
--type=
variant
|
|
This option cannot be used if you specify a project using a keyword string for the --sharedProject option. It is also mutually exclusive with the --subprojectRevision option.
|
• --type=[normal|variant|build|default]
specifies the new configuration type for the subproject. If you specify the --sharedProject option using a flat string, by default the subproject type is the same as the parent project type. If you specify the --sharedProject option using a keyword-based string, by default the subproject type is determined by the specified configuration. Use this option to specify a configuration type other than the default.
--type=normal configures the subproject to the master (non-variant) version of the subproject.
--type=variant configures the subproject based upon a specific development path. The option is used with--variant=subproject development path name or --subprojectDevelopmentPath=subproject development path name.
--type=build configures the subproject as a static subproject based upon a specific checkpoint of the master project that is used for building or testing the project, but not for further development. This option is used with -r subproject revision or --subprojectRevision=subproject revision.
--type=default configures the subproject to be the same as the parent project that you are adding the subproject to. For example, if you add a subproject to a normal project, the subproject is added as a normal type. For information on what the default type is, see your administrator.
• subproject location
specifies where in the project you want the shared subproject to appear, for example, c:/Aurora_Program/bin/Libra/.
