Recently I stumbled over a project.pj with unusual size regarding member count.When opening in a text editor I discovered that comments for deferred checkinswhere stored there which later on I found plausible remembering information for deferredoperation beeing stored locally.I then also discovered that on subsequent deferred checkins with different commentssome kind of comment history must be kept in project.pj.I was somehow surprised though that even checking in undeferred some time later or reverting themember does not remove that information.Is there a way to purge project files in a sandbox from such information?For newer Integrity releases is there a difference regarding handling of deferred operations?

Hello,We have an old Copy of MKS integrity which contains some legacy solutions.  We do not actively use it but it is occasionally useful to look at the old histories when trying to understand an area of code. We are looking to upgrade the backend database from SQL 2005 -> SQL 2008 R2. Just wondering if anyone has done this, or any experience with it / known problems?Thanks,Al.

I need to count the relationships for some items types, like for example the number of "Validated By" traces for a Requirement.1) One way to do that is via a dynamic calculation: for example, "Trace Count - Validated By" is defined as isEmpty( RelCount( "Validated By" ) , 0 ).2) The other way is to keep the field as a normal input integer (no calculation), but define a rule on the relationship field "Validated By" that runs a trigger script like "count.js".Which solution is better from a performance standpoint?- On one hand, having the dynamic calculation means it's performed every time the item is accessed. Changing the computation to static is not a solution since I need the number as soon as it changes.- On the other hand, I've noticed that rule triggers are run every time the item is edited, no matter which fields are edited. I even suspect that all the rules are run for all relationship fields, but I'm not sure of that (and no time to investigate further). For items in a document

how do i check if there are any files checked in to a devpath or release ?

Hi all,is it possible to rename the project tabs?By default they show part of a long path to the project.pj file.

Hi.I'm experimenting with the si CLI command and stumbled upon a difference in th output of this command and the respective project difference view in the client gui.I was using this command:>si mods --recurse -Y --project=/work/products/whatever/shared/ClockLib/posix/project.pj --projectRevision=1.169.1.3 --projectRevision=1.161 --showAppliedCPList --showChangePackagesThis command comes back empty.The GUI however does indeed show a difference for this subproject and these checkpoints. It says:/work/products/whatever/shared/ClockLib/posix/project.pj     Subproject changed from checkpoint 1.161 to checkpoint 1.169.1.3tmLib.c                                                       Member revision chang

Through trial and error I have learned that using the Condition: Field != Field[New Value] as a Trigger Rule works for picklists etc but does not trigger when a Computed Field value changes. I can somewhat get around this by changing the trigger condition to reference the inputs to the computed field. However one of the field inputs is a computed field that I don't know how to generate otherwise. It is a computed field called Last Result which is computed based on the LastResult() command to come up with the last verdict for a Test Case. Does anyone have a simple way of 'triggering' a trigger to set a field in a Test Case when a test result changes?Thank you,Adrian

Is it possible to allow to attachments more than one file simultaneously in Integrity 10.8

Hi all,   I'm currently stuck in a cleanup and refactoring task for our server setup. I want to remove a number of duplicate or outdated report-recipes and I do not want to "harm" my users more than necessary.   So I need to find out which ( "user specifc" and admin) report instance is using which report-recipe file.   The   "im reports"   and   "im viewreport"   commands are currently of no help, as the desired infromation is not available as a field (or at least I didn't find it )   Any idea is welcome   Thanx in advance Matthias

How can I fire an integrity query in java and get its output and store it? Can I get an example code for it?

We've been trying to run HTML Reports on objects such as Test Objectives & Test Sessions. However this functionality does not provide the images (despite of the image's extension) in the report and instead show up as useless broken image icons.   Is there any way to include the images (or links to them) in the report? Also, attachments in the report are not clickable links. Is there any way to enable users to be able to download the attachments from the report?

Hello,I've got a problem with a single file that updates in both the main line and a development path in a project. I want to branch that file specifically to be updated on a developent path. I followed the process of creating a new development path, and from there, do the needed modifications in some files. At the time to do "check-in", PTC asked to branch the members to avoid those changes to appear in the mainline, which was OK. The problem is that one file that I needed to branch, was not branched for a reason and was updated both in the mainline and the only development path that I have. I tried to manually branch the file to the development path but I only got a branch that will be updated both in the mainline and the dev path. I tried to discard the changes from the change package but I get the error "The entry cannot be discarded since the ChangePackageMandatory policy is set. I've tried different thing as merging back the member to the mainline and then try to re-branch it to

I am trying tp generate a PDFX conform file using Arbortext Publishing engine, and to do so I need to set the attribut outputIntent of the PDFX tag.I've looked on the documentation and all what it says is the outputIntent must refere to some sort of CDATA. and It appears the it's a file that contains the profile of the distination. I couldn't find furder details about it.So the question is, how to set this attribut (outputIntent) ? and is there a specific location in where I should place the file ?

For documentation purposes as well as for getting something like a complete data model I like to give out every admin object with it's referencesfrom our Workflow and Documents module.To our solution:We have defined own (==> from PTC Solution deviating) types and several other objects belonging to this (incl. Scripts).I now like to give out all of this stuff including infos:for a certain object:  what does it include ?for a certain object:  where is used ?for a certain object:  how has it been set up ?Reason:  Get an overview which allows to see where a change will be effective.Does anyone have an idea how to do this ?Waiting for any idea....Klaus

We're having major issues getting Test Objectives to print correctly. Everything is authored in Arial font and looks great on screen. However when printed, certain characters are displayed as weird symbols (sometimes Greek, other times it looks Russian - not sure because I don't read Russian).Extremely perplexing because everything looks great on the screen but when printed, it's impossible to know what the author meant.   Tried changing the font of all text and that didn't help. Problem likely exists with printing other items as well, but I have not tested it as of now.   Has anyone faced this issue in the past? What are the possible solutions? This is a real show stopper for us because testers need their objectives beside them when setting up the test and if they can't read the instructions, we have a major problem.

Hi Team, We have integrated MKS Integrity client in our product. Need to generate report out of file changes by using MKS SI command.Please let me know the command to compare remote and local file changes without MKS GUI.  I have tried to used "DIFF" command without gui but i am not sure where the files checked out in the filesystem. And i don't want to overwrite the local file changes also while checkout the file. Please let me know how to proceed further.Thanks.
