  85   <li>Releasing ucmwb 1.2.4 for a test drive</li>
  86 </ul>
  87                   <p>I've reached another milestone in ucmwb development and would like your input on the new features as well as any bugs you might encounter. Please consider this beta. You can access this new version as usual with ucmwbpre.</p>
  88
  89 <p>Here are some of the changes implemented:</p>
  90
  91 <ul>
  92   <li><font color="#009900"><b>Progress dialogs work much better</b></font>.
  93 As you know ucmwb is pretty slow starting up. Unfortunately until we
  94 update our Oracle server from 9.x -&gt; 10.x I can do little to improve
  95 start up time. Meantime, while start up is happening at least a
  96 progress dialog box is shown to give the user some indication of where
  97 are are in startup. Alas the majority of the start up is a large,
  98 complicated query to get all WORs. One thing that is unknown is why a
  99 query of 5000 records takes ~30 seconds whereas a query of 1000 records
 100 in the test database happens in a few seconds.</li>
 101   <li><font color="#009900"><b>Environment variables for testing.</b></font>
 102 There are 4 environment variables that could be set to point ucmwb to
 103 the test Clearquest database. If not set then things point to
 104 production. To point things to the test Clearquest database do all of
 105 the following:<br>
 106     <br>
 107     <font color="#3333ff"><tt>% setenv OCI_USER RANTS8<br>
 108 % setenv OCI_PASSWORD RANTS8<br>
 109 % setenv CQ_DBSET XTST3</tt></font><br>
 110     <br>
 111 Additionally, if you don't have a login to the XTST3 database you can
 112 set:<br>
 113     <br>
 114     <tt><font color="#3333ff">% setenv CQ_USER ccadm<br>
 115 % setenv CQ_PASSWORD ccadm</font><br>
 116     </tt><br>
 117   </li>
 118   <li><b><font color="#009900">cqtool Perl script replaces unsupported
 119 and going away in 7.0 cqtool by IBM/Rational</font></b>. The new cqtool
 120 Perl script now covers all aspects of the old, unsupported and going
 121 away, cqtool from IBM/Rational. This is used to transition WORs into
 122 different states, update effort ours as well as adding new
 123 functionality for creating new WORs, child WORs and Help Desk Tickets.
 124 The new cqtool is also run along side of ucmwb so subsequent usage of
 125 cqtool will not have to reopen the Clearquest database, etc.</li>
 126   <li><b><font color="#cc0000">RANCQ0001589</font>: Allow state changes
 127 from right-click menu in UCM Workbench</b>. You can now transition
 128 state directly by right clicking on a WOR and selecting the next state
 129 transition. Previously you need to to right click, bring up the
 130 Properties and then click a button to get to the next state.</li>
 131   <li><b><font color="#cc0000">RANCQ00014935</font>: Allow the UCM
 132 Workbench to create WOR from Collector</b>. The previously
 133 unimplemented <i>Create Child WOR</i> action now works.</li>
 134   <li>Create WOR button/menu pick. With implementation of cqtool and
 135 the Create Child WOR functionality comes the ability to create a plain
 136 WOR. As such there is a new button on the tool bar for this as well as
 137 a menu pick (<b>File: Create WOR</b>). Question: Should <b>Create WOR</b>
 138 allow you to create a <i>Collector WOR</i>?</li>
 139   <li><b><font color="#cc0000">RANCQ00018139</font>: Changes for the
 140 View Browser in the UCM Workbench</b>. The <i>View Browser</i> now
 141 lists all views for the current owner (as defined in the <b>Filter
 142 Settings: Owner field</b>). This change necessitated a painstaking and
 143 slightly long task of enumerating all views with cleartool lsview -long
 144 and then collecting exactly who really owns which views. By default
 145 ucmwb will show the current users views, however you can change the <b>Owner
 146     </b>field in the <b>Filter Settings</b> to any user you want and
 147 refresh the <i>View Browser</i> window. The collection of view owners
 148 is determined whenever the <i>View Browser</i> window is opened or
 149 after deletion of a view.<br>
 150     <br>
 151 By default then the <b>View List Filter</b> box in the <i>View Browser</i>
 152 is set to blank. You can now further narrow down the list of views
 153 presented by typing in that filter box. Given the list of owned views
 154 then you can further narrow the list of views down to only those
 155 containing whatever string you type into the <b>View List Filter</b>
 156 box,<br>
 157     <br>
 158 Note you can deselect the <b>Filter Settings: Owner</b> field meaning
 159 "all owners" and then the <i>View Browser</i> will start with a list
 160 of all views, which you can further narrow down with the <b>View List
 161 Filter</b> box.<br>
 162     <br>
 163 Finally, this ticket requests a mechanism to delete multiple views.
 164 Multi selection is now available on the view list. Drag to select
 165 multiple views or use Shift-Click to extend the selection or
 166 Control-Click to select non contiguous items. Once the views have been
 167 selected you can click on the <b>Delete View(s)</b> button. If
 168 multiple views are selected you will be asked once if you really wish
 169 to delete all of these views. Views will then be forcefully deleted
 170 (i.e. no prompting). If, however, only one view is selected (i.e. the
 171 old fashioned method) then you will be prompted as before for
 172 confirmation and notifed of possible problems (i.e. this view has view
 173 privates...) along the way.</li>
 174   <li><font color="#009900"><b>Disable buttons for Change List and View
 175 Private Files</b></font>. This was not officially submitted as a ticket
 176 but Ken asked for it. You can now disable displaying of the <b>Change
 177 List</b> and/or <b>View Private Files</b>. If both are disabled then
 178 nothing is done. If either one of them are enabled then when a view is
 179 selected it will be started and that <b>Change List</b> or <b>View
 180 Private Files</b> area will be evaluated (i.e. ct lsact or ct lspriv).
 181 This is useful if you have views that have lots of <b>Change List</b>
 182 or <b>View Private Files</b> entries that will take time to evaluate.
 183 If all you want to do is to delete these views, for example, then you
 184 probably don't want to spend time enumerating the <b>Change List</b>
 185 or <b>View Private Files</b> areas.</li>
 186   <li><b><font color="#cc0000">RANCQ0001781</font>: UCM Workbench not
 187 recognizing WOR view</b>. This was fixed before. The problem was that
 188 the WOR was in the midst of a rebase or deliver. I had coded this up
 189 but somehow those changes became lost! They are now back in.</li>
 190 </ul>
 191 <font color="#ff0000"><b>Important Note:</b></font> ucmwb stores the
 192 path to cqtool in your ~/.ucmwbrc. Currently that points to
 193 /opt/rational/clearquest/bin/cqtool, the unsupported and going away
 194 version of cqtool. The new ucmwb 1.2.4 will sense this and replace it
 195 with
 196 /cleartrig/ent/SNSD/muos/ccadm_tools/vobs/ranccadm/scripts/clearquest/cqtool.
 197 If you are a ucmwb user you will want to set this back before going
 198 back to use the current ucmwb.<br>
