 145
 146                               <h3>Release Records vs. Switch Config specs</h3>
 147
 148 <p>Meantime I spoke with John about this and <i>Release Records</i> and learned a little bit about them. From what I understand the work I did regarding config spec Switch Config files should more properly be moved to Release Records. John explained that in general there are 3 sections to config specs (well some config specs for some projects).</p>
 149
 150 <p>The first section is generated by the UCM process of creating UCM related views that have components. These are delineated by "ucm" and "end ucm" markers in the config spec.</p>
 151
 152 <p>After that are any custom rules that you may want. This is where Release Records come in. The whole WOR oriented Clearquest mechanism already knows about Release Records. They are actually stored in Clearquest and are added to the end of the config spec at view creation time (by createView.pl that is).</p>
 153
 154 <p>So what are Switch Config files (Nit: I don't like the term Switcher Config. The script is called switchConfig.pl not switcherConfig.pl...)? Well there are files which are stuffed into config specs <b>after</b> "end  ucm" but <b>before</b> Release Records by the switchConfig.pl script.</p>
 155
 156 <p>However the intent of Switch Config files is to allow you to switch target type things (e.g. Solaris vs. PPC vs. SimCello) while the intent of Release Records was to specify which versions of the tools you want to use. So eventually, I will need to migrate the tools related lines from Switch Config files to Release Records.</p>
