Versioning Selected Items
Version your open editions to save a copy of them at a significant point in the
development cycle.
Select an option for naming your versioned editions:
- Automatic VisualAge for Java will automatically assign a unique name to
each of the program elements that you are versioning. Depending on what the previous
version names were, the new version names differ from each other. For example, AppletA 1.2
and AppletB 1.3 may be created.
- One Name Select this to specify a common version name for all of the
program elements that you are versioning. By default, a unique name will be provided in
the input field. You can change this name, for example by adding a prefix to it.
- Name Each Select this to explicitly assign version names, one at a
time, to the program elements that you are versioning. VisualAge for Java will display the
default name for each program element; you can change any of these names.
In all cases, the default name provided by VisualAge for Java will be an alphanumeric
increment of the previous name. For example, Customer
X V2R3 would become Customer X V2R4;
JBL Version A would become JBL Version B.
Select Release
selected items to release classes or packages at the same time that you version
them. Releasing updates the team baseline. The Release selected items
checkbox is only available for classes and packages that have not already been released.
