Re: [epf-dev] EPF Metamodel extensions
|
Hello JJ.
Check out this thread for a discussion
on the rationale for the Practice guidance kind:
http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/forums/dw_thread.jsp?forum=1078&thread=140649&message=13887190&cat=24&q=practice#13887190
I think the Custom Category approach
will work. In EPF Composer 1.2 you have now a check box called "publish
this category with the categorized elements". When you tick
these then your categories will appear on your work product pages. Check
out the "What's New in EPFC 1.2" presentation recording on the
EPF homepage for more details.
Thanks and best regards,
Peter Haumer.

Bruce:
thanks, I do have an additional question regarding the
topic, it looks like I can define a "practice" as a guidance
item. Within a practice, I can reference a role, so far so good, I can
define a RACI practice, which contains Responsible, Accountable... practices.
However, I cannot reference a practice from a Work Product
Guidance. yet in the help file it says in the Guidance Relationships section
(see table) that a practice can be referenced by a work product, task and
role (which makes sense to me).
In the text below it says: Practice has a relationship
to these elements, not from them. Why is that? that does not make complete
sense to me. Assuming this is logical, how come, I cannot associate a practice
to any other guidance type (for instance: concept). I should be able to
define a RACI concept (per work product) and then associate Practices elements
that attaches roles to it.
I also tried to use the custom category route which allows
me to define a CC with my RACI practice. I can then go to work product
and associate it with this CC. However, when I preview the work product
it does not give me a link to the CC.
I am out of luck.
It looks to me that the relationship between work products
and role is incomplete.
thanks,
JJ-

Hi JJ,
Currently the EPF metamodel is quite strict, although we've had discussions
about allowing user extensions (like user-defined guidance types and role
assignment types
to support RACI).
In the meantime you can put such information in a table, as described in
the following Rational Edge article by Mark Lines http://www.
ibm.com/developerworks/rational/library/feb07/lines/index.html?S_TACT=105AGX15&S_CMP=EDU
Another workaround (credit to Margaret Hedstrom for this idea) - you could
create a plug-in that has a contributing work product for every work product
in your library, and add the RACI information as text to the "key
considerations" field.
For example, if for the Vision work product you want Architect and Stakeholder
roles to be consulted, and Tester and Developer to be informed, then
you could add the following text to a contributing Vision work product.
Consulted:
- Role: Architect
- Role: Stakeholder
Informed:
- Role: Tester
- Role: Developer

not sure this is the correct place to pose this question but I am evaluating
EPF for our needs and I ran into a snag. I can't find a place to associate
our RACI roles to a work product (responsible, accountable, consulted and
informed). I found a way to associate a role to a work product via a responsible
association.
Is there anyways I could expand EPF's metamodel to add an accountable,
consulted and informed category in the role's work product tab?
thanks,
JJ-_______________________________________________
