New features in TeamForge connector 2.2.1

TeamForge connector 2.2.1 adds these new features.

Support for TeamForge 7.0
TeamForge connector (CCF) 2.2.1 supports TeamForge 7.0
Automatic check for the dummy service
When you use TeamForge connector 2.2.1 (or later) to integrate with TeamForge 7.0 (or later), you can use the in-built dummy service that runs within TeamForge 7.0. CCF will automatically detect the Integrated Application Framework (IAF) service endpoint for TeamForge 7.0 and use it. You do not need to separately install the dummy service on the TeamForge server. You do not need to add or edit the ccf.iafServiceEndpoint property in ccfhomeruntimeconfig.properties either.
CCF Core properties are configurable in the user interface
To help you configure the CCF Core more easily, the following properties are available in the user interface:
  • Use Alternative FieldName: Enables handwritten XSLT scripts to refer to HP Quality Center display names during transformation of artifacts.
  • Ignore Connector Updates: To prevent infinite update loops, updates made by the connector are not shipped to the other connector participant by default. Turn off this setting only if you are absolutely sure of what you are doing; and never turn it off for both directions.
  • Translate Technical ReleaseIds: If set to true, human-readable file release names are translated to technical release IDs (relxxx). Turning on this setting will impact performance because further SOAP calls have to be made.
  • Retrieve Parent Info For Tracker Items: Determines whether parent information should be fetched for tracker items.
