An
Endevor short name for Change Control Identifier, which is an attribute associated to
Endevor elements.
Change package
A set of
AccuRev elements. The change package records the changes to one or more elements. Each entry in the change package describes changes
to one element: the changes between the basis version and the head version.
Connection
The configuration that permits synchronization of specific assets. A connection defines a master and a target data source
and several specific mapping rules defined as projects.
Connector
Software that interacts with an SCM system (CA
Endevor, for example) to perform synchronizations.
Connector type
The name of the third-party repository with which a connector interacts.
Content type
The content type specifies how data are stored in
AccuRev or
Endevor (for example
binary or
text).
Data source
A specific instance of an
Enterprise Sync connector.
Depot
Main repository on an
AccuRev server for all related source code.
Eclipse Project
AWM applications, Enterprise Developer Cobol or PL/I projects and
AccuRev workspaces are managed in Enterprise Developer in Eclipse projects.
Element type
A type is a category of source code that is used as part of the classification of an
Endevor element. For example, there are types for COBOL, COPYBOOK, JCL.
Endevor
A short name for CA's
Endevor Software Change Manager product.
Enterprise Sync Project
An
Enterprise Sync project is a specific configuration defined in a connection which defines mapping rules for SCM assets. A connection may
define several projects, for example depending of the stages, application systems, etc.
Environment
An environment is the top level of the logical structure used to classify elements in
Endevor.
Eclipse Workspace
A developer local workspace used by Enterprise Developer to manage Eclipse project data.
Element
A file or directory that is under version control. This term is used in
AccuRev for files and directories and used in
Endevor for files.
Gated stream
A special
AccuRev stream which is used by
Enterprise Sync to support on demand synchronizations (see also Stream).
Master data source
The primary and leading data source defined in a connection. In case of a bi-directional synchronization the assets of the
master data source are treated with precedence, for example when a conflict situation occurs.
Processor Group
A
processor group identifies a set of processors for a specific element type in
Endevor. A group can include up to three processors (one generate, one delete, and one move processor, or any combination).
Project
See
Enterprise Sync Project or Eclipse Project.
SCM
Software change and configuration management: a third party product managing software assets relevant for application development.
This typically includes features like versioning, change management, build management and process management.
Stage
A stage in
Endevor is a step in the software life-cycle. There are two stages defined for each
Endevor environment.
Stream
Configuration of related elements in
AccuRev. Code may be promoted into or inherited from streams.
Subsystem
A subsystem is a part of the
Endevor classification of an element. Subsystems are used for specific applications within a system.
Synchronization
The process of mirroring and synchronizing assets (one- or bi-directional) between two third-party SCM systems (for example
between
AccuRev and
Endevor).
System
An
Endevor system is a way to classify elements in
Endevor. A system typically represents the applications.
Target data source
The second defined data source in a connection, which is not the master data source.
Type
See Content type or Element type.
Workspace
See
AccuRev Workspace or Eclipse Workspace.
Workflow Manager
A feature in Enterprise Developer for Eclipse which generates a user interface and integrates custom applications, for example
the third party SCM systems.
Version
A particular revision of an element in
AccuRev. In
Endevor the term VVLL (version/level) is used to identify a revision in an environment.
