Viewing Change Package Details, History and Labels
This procedure assumes you have already saved one or more change packages that will be visible in
Change Perspective of the target view in which it resides.
Note: Each change package is saved in the target view.
In the
StarTeam Cross-Platform Client, open the target view of the change package.
On the right side of the toolbar, click the
Show Change Perspective icon to switch to the
Change Perspective.
Choose one of the views you want to see from the icons at the right in the “side by side” layout, or from the tabs at the
bottom of the “top over bottom” layout.
Details pane
Displays information specific to the selected change package, such as it's description, by whom it was created, when it was
last modified, if it was committed, when it was committed and by whom. It also displays the session type (promote, rebase,
or replicate), source and target view, transaction ID, and labels. The
Details pane can be customized like the
Details pane for other
StarTeam items. Sample
Detail pane templates are installed under the
StarTeam Cross-Platform Client root installation folder in the
samples\details-templates folder. There is a
changepackage.details.html which you can use to modify the fields displayed on the
Details pane in the
Change Perspective.
History pane
Displays all the historical versions of the selected change package, complete with
Dot Notation,
Name, who modified each revision, and the
Description of the revision. As with the
History pane for other
StarTeam items, there is a context menu for performing standard history actions, and right-clicking on the fields at the top let's
you change which fields are displayed and the order in which they are displayed.
Label pane
This pane in the
Replay view works exactly the same as for other
StarTeam items. It shows all the branch revisions and their date/time information, and you have the same context menu as with other
items to perform the same label functions.
