Server Artifact Search tab

You must enter the criteria of the search that is directly run on the server.

Artifact name patterns
Indicate the names or extensions of the files that will be searched for on the server. All the files that are indexed by Rational Programming Patterns can be indicated. They can be design files (.pacscreen for example) and generated files (.cbl and .bms for example).

To see all the possible extensions, click Choose. In the dialog box that opens up, you can then select one or more file extensions.

Server scope
You can select a stream to limit the search scope.

A stream is the equivalent of a work session. It is a repository object that is created in the Rational Team Concert™ server to integrate the work that is done in workspaces.

Search in
You can limit the search scope by selecting one or more projects. For a server search, this selection significantly reduces the search running time and limits the traffic between the client and the server.
For a local or server design search, this field displays the hierarchy of the design projects as it is indicated in the deign compilation path. You can select projects in different ways by clicking the Checking mode buttons:
  • One or more separate projects in the hierarchy. If you select a project, its hierarchy is not taken into account.
  • A project with its upper hierarchy.
  • A project with its lower hierarchy.
  • All the projects of the hierarchy.
By default, all the projects are selected. Click None to clear them. Then, select the appropriate Checking mode and check the projects.

For a server artifact search, the list of the projects in this field includes all the projects of the selected streams. The projects that contain the design files and the projects that contain the generated files are displayed according to their alphabetical order, without any hierarchical level. Only the projects that you select explicitly are browsed upon the search.

Note: For server searches, if you select All streams in Server scope, then the list of the projects is irrelevant and only the line Search in all projects is available.
