After looking a bit further, I did in fact find a way to save individual controlled units (File:Units:Save) without saving the entire Rose model.
I then (not entirely cleanly) solved the issue with source controlling the Rose controlled units by limiting the Rose MDL file to contain only references to the controlled units. This requires that any subfolder contained within the Logical View or Component View be a controlled unit. In addition, for this approach to work all Associations must be contained within the controlled units (as opposed to directly in the Logical View). The goal here is that developer changes no longer affect the MDL file. In order to make the Rose model ClearCase-view-capable (i.e. no absolute paths), the second step was to change the references to the controlled units in the MDL file to relative paths using a text editor. Using this 2 step approach, individual developers can work on their respective controlled units without affecting the MDL file or other controlled units. One slight problem I found is that when the source-controlled MDL file is not checked out, Rose is unable to customise its environment by loading certain TTY files. One way around this would be for each developer to do an unreserved checkout of the MDL file - being sure to undo the checkout when finished. -- Richard Chrenko Lorenzetti_P wrote: > > Have you heard anything regarding this?
