This section provides information about associating and disassociating contexts to IBM Rational ClearCase adapters. An adapter can have one or more associated contexts.

Adapters have "explicit" context associations. Context is the generic name for the container to which objects belong. Explicit association always refers to a context. Windchill supports the following types of contexts. (1) Site (a single one for the installation), (2) Organization, (3) Product, (4) Project and (5) Library. There is a "containment" relationship between contexts. The Site context comprises all Organizations that contain Products, Projects, and Libraries. However, IBM Rational ClearCase adapters can only have Product, Project, or Library context associations.

Context associations to adapters are listed in:

For every Windchill PDMLink product or library, or Windchill ProjectLink project; the adapter content can be viewed through the Windchill associated context. This content can be a Config Spec or View.
