6 IBM Rational DOORS Surrogate Module Synchronization

6-10

DOORS Settings Option Description

Save Simulink model (recommended) After the synchronization, saves changes to

the model. If you use a version control system,

selecting this option changes the version of the

model.

Resynchronize a Model with a Different Surrogate Module

You can synchronize the same Simulink model with a new DOORS surrogate module.

For example, you might want the surrogate module to contain only objects that have

requirements to DOORS, rather than all objects in the model. In this case, you can

change the synchronization options to reduce the level of detail in the surrogate module:

In the DOORS synchronization settings dialog box, change the DOORS surrogate

module path and name to the path and name of the new surrogate module in the

DOORS database.

Specify a module with either a relative path (starting with ./) or a full path

(starting with /).

The software appends relative paths to the current DOORS project. Absolute paths

must specify a project and a module name.

When you synchronize a model, the RMI automatically updates the DOORS

surrogate module path and name with the actual full path. The RMI saves the

unique module ID with the module.

If you select a new module path or if you have renamed the surrogate module, and

you click Synchronize, the Requirements: Surrogate Module Mismatch dialog box

opens.
