Once the schema has been configured as described in the previous section, you use third-party ITS keys with a variety of AccuRev CLI input commands by specifying the new “-3” switch in addition to the traditional “-I” switch (for example “-3 -I US23407”). Note that you can also still use AccuWork issue numbers by using the traditional “-I” switch by itself, but you cannot specify both on the same command line.
Here are some examples of using the promote command with the -3 switch:
These commands return third-party key information in XML output (specified with the -fx switch):
cpkdepend also returns third-party key information in non-XML format. If you specify
-3 to query the dependency, then the values in non-fx will be displayed using third-party values. If specify standard issue numbers, they will be displayed in standard format. If you specify
-3 without
-fx and an issue does not have a third-party value, an asterick ('*') appears before the issue number.
In the examples below, the third-party values are displayed in bold. "
thirdPartyName" is the field name (not the label name) defined in the Schema Editor.
