Defining Third-Party CM Tool Interfaces : Script-Based Interface to CM Tools : Mapping Individual CM Operations to Scripts

Mapping Individual CM Operations to Scripts

The mapping file cm_tool_name.cmt is a text file that maps each CM operation in Rational Statemate to a script that actually performs the operation. The contents of the mapping file template are shown in the following table:

 
Note: The list of operations in this file is defined by Rational Statemate. You cannot add or remove operations.

To define a new interface for a CM tool, edit the new mapping file and replace the string path_of_scripts with the actual path of the directory that contains the scripts for your CM tool. It is recommended that you do not change the names of the scripts. Creating the scripts is described in the next section.
