RE: [epf-dev] REG: EPF Query
|
Hello Saravanan.
I am very happy to answer all the questions
you have about the usage of EPF Composer. However, can I suggest
to move these usage questions to the NewsGroup (news://news.eclipse.org/eclipse.technology.epf)?
Eclipse likes us to use the newsgroup for discussions with the community.
Our project gets even ranked based on the traffic in these newsgroups,
I believe. Also, all the answers I am providing to your excellent
questions would also be visible to a much larger audience as well. The
email list you are currently using is dedicated to the development of EPF
only.
The creation of glossaries and indexes
is explained in the online help under Tasks-->Creating Reusable Method
Content. Did you follow the steps in there? Please reply in
the newsgroup :-)
Thanks and best regards,
Peter Haumer.

Is there is a way to easily sort the task descriptors in the Work breakdown
structure view. I am currently using the right click menu “move up” or
“Move down” option. But it really pains my hand J
if I have say 20 tasks.
I see an index column, but I am not able to edit it. Any solutions?????
Thanks & Regards

We are always looking for contributor willing to implement importers for
EPF. A Word importer plug-in for EPF Composer would be of great value.
An interest implementing one for the project?
I understand (2) now: Agreed that would be a good enhancement.
Btw. I think attachment fields make sense for template, example, reusable
asset, and report.
Thanks and best regards,
Peter Haumer.

Hi Peter,
I agree totally with you from EPF design perspective. But at the same for
organizations like us which already have rich set of processes in place
with large number of Guidance in form on word documents, power point templates,
eLearnings, etc. Converting all this in to EPF specification is really
a huge task for us. Though we are using the round about solution of giving
URL’s in the content description section of Guidance’s, looks to be a
okay solution now.
For (2) if I give the URL in the RTE, it does not appear under Template
header rather it’s displayed in the main description header, which is
a not right. Whether I upload an attachment for templates or give an reference
URL’s, it should be appearing under the Template header.
Thanks & Regards

Hello Saravanan.
(1) is by design. The rationale for our decision to not include such a
field to guidance types such as guideline or concept was to discourage
authors to just attach the documents they have. One goal of EPF Composer
is to manage and provide content in one standard presentation and look
& feel. Attachments have their own templates and styles, cannot
be searched or indexed and required a third party viewer. If people
really need to bring in attachments they can do so as Mark described, but
a field would "say" to users that they should provide an attachment
(which we don't want) as it is the case for templates, which are really
meant to be opened in a specific CASE or WP tool. Not sure I understand
(2), but you can create URLs in the RTE as well as attachments that are
managed in the method library as resources.
Thanks and best regards,
Peter Haumer.

Thanks a lot for the response Mark. Even I am doing the same solution as
you suggested, but it’s not a suitable way to do it. I will raise it in
Bugzilla too…

Hi Saravanan
I am working on a similar actvity with my own organisation's quality processes
(as well as working as a Committer on OpenUP).
You are correct in saying that only the Template product type provides
a form field for defining attachments. However, it is also possible to
refer to attachments as content hyperlinks to external files in the content
description. If you do this, Composer will copy the file into the method
Library you are working in, adding it to the overall source set. It is
then possible to version control the file within the cvs or clearcase repository
you may be using.
Although this does not seem as elegant as using a dedicated form field
within Composer, it offers a viable workaround.
Have you considered raising a bugzilla entry to add the functionality you
describe? It sounds like a reasonable request.
I hope this helps.
Kind regards
Mark Dickson

Hi
Can some one answer my following EPF queries?
1. Why
we are not allowing attachments for all guidance types, currently it’s
allowed only for Template Guidance type. For organizations which already
have a stable process and wants to enhance the system with EPF, it looks
to be a bottle neck since it’s not allowing me to upload the existing
guidance’s in the organization. This is more necessary because in larger
organizations guidance are off different formats like, doc, excel, e-learning
materials etc.
2. Similarly
along with attachment option, we should also provide an option to give
the URLS for the guidance’s. So that the end user will have the
freedoms to neither upload the Guidance documents nor give the URL for
the same.
Thanks & Regards
