Software Component Version

[Former Member]

This is a very basic question. I will divide this into two questions:

1.When do you typically go from one Product / Software Component Version to another. Now I have all my Customer specific Product / Software Components at 1.0. We are about to move them to QA.

2.Say we move the SWC to QA and found some bugs later and fix it in DEV and move it again to QA. Is this a version change.

Give me some idea about how versions are maintained for Customer specic Products / Software Components.

Mike,

There is a difference between RELEASE-TRANSFER and EXPORT/IMPORT in XI.

Release Transfer (Only Repository)

Take over objects to next level SWCV of the same repository at end of development. SWCV1->SWCV2.

Release Transfer is only for Repository objects.

Export/Import:

Repository1 -> Repository2 (all objects of a namespace or all objects of a SWCV)

Directory1->Directory2

Here both repository and directory objects are transported. Note that two repositories are involved.

Hope this helps.
