Creating a View Compare/Merge Change Package
To create a View Compare/Merge change package, do the following:
- Open one of the two project views you want to compare in the StarTeam client.
- Follow the steps in Comparing and Merging Views in VCM
- Commit your change package session.
- Save your change package session.
Note: If you use one of the VCM menu VCM Session menu items VCM Session, or Export after committing the session, StarTeam creates a uniquely named change package object in the target view for the change session which contains all the changes made in that View Compare/Merge change session. It then becomes available in the Change Perspective, where it can later be opened in read-only view, reviewed, have the properties modified, or have the change session Replayed which reuses the change package to apply the same set of changes to another view. Once a change package is committed, no more changes can be made to it. You can also use VCM Session > Save\
