New Project Wizard: step one

Use the Project Wizard to create a new UCM project in an existing PVOB. You can specify another project on which to base this new project. Also, you can add baselines to the new project, specify component information and project policy settings, and configure the project for the UCM integration with Rational® ClearQuest®.

In this step of the wizard, you specify general project information.

In Project Name, enter a unique name for the project.

Enter a name for the project integration stream or accept the default name (project name_Integration).

In Project Description, enter a comment to describe the purpose of the project.

Select the type of project you want to create.

  • Set Traditional Parallel Development to create a project that will contain multiple streams, which allows developers to work in private and shared work areas.
  • Set Single Stream Development to create a project that contains only one stream, the integration stream. Users cannot create development streams in a single-stream project. When developers join a single-stream project, they create an integration view attached to the integration stream. Developers see each other's work as soon as they check in their files. Single-stream projects are suitable only for small teams of developers who work together closely and prefer a serial development environment.

After you create the project, you cannot change its type. See the online help under "Managing Software Projects" for information about single-stream projects.
