Version Name Templates

Allows the developer to specify the scheme used for generating new version names from prior releases. Templates may be composed of any literal text and any of the tokens listed in the Version Components list. If the current date is to be part of the template, the date format may also be specified.

These options may also be configured via the "VA Assist | Versions" options page. The user's initials and the default initial version name may also be set here. The administrator may also specify that a global version name template should be used. When a global version name template is in effect, individual users will not be able to specify their own version name template.

VisualAge Java Tools API

If you have a version template set up and use the VA Java Tools API to version a project, package or type, the version template will be used anytime default versioning is used (i.e., you allow the system to select a version name for you). If you supply your own, hard-coded version label to the Tools API, it will be used instead (as is normally the case with the Tools API)..
