Update Change Requests from csv file. Custom CP tool
The CSV CR Update tool imports comma separated or tab separated
CR export files into Starteam, applying the changes made in the
file. The tool is launched from the Cross Platform custom tools
menu available to Advantage customers. The tool is perfect for
making bulk changes to CRs.
Export a csv file either from the Starteam Client or the command
line CR Export tool available here. Import the exported file into
Excel and make any necessary changes and remove unchanged fields;
save the file in Excel as a csv file. Using the tool, import the
data back into Starteam.
This tool has some limitations detailed in the included
documentation. These limitations include importing free form text
and dates. The ST client does not correctly export carriage returns
in free form text. The only available option is to convert them to
spaces. For obvious reasons this shouldn"t be imported back
into Starteam. The command line CR export tool handles carriage
returns correctly and can be used to edit the text.
Instructions are included on how to install, use and run the
tool.
Java sources and build xml file is also included.
The open source project opencsv was used to parse the csv import
files. The jar is included in the package as well as the location
for license information for that tool.
