Change your documentation structure (Refactor)
You can change a product into a library or a library into a product using Refactor.
For a product or library to be changed, the following parent and child dependencies must be respected:
- DRM structure: a product cannot access objects directly from another product and a library cannot access objects from its parent or sibling libraries.
- Content dependencies: child objects cannot be in a layer higher than their parent objects.
When a product is changed into a library, it is changed into the
library layer specified as the default (isDefault="yes"
)
layer in the libraryLayers.xml configuration file
with its releases and versions intact.
To change the product or library:
- In the Dynamic Release Management view, right-click the product or library that you want to modify.
- Click Refactor.
Note: You can select only one object at a time to
refactor. However, if you regularly refactor contact, you can contact IXIA CCMS Customer Supportabout a plugin, called "Move to Library." It works
similarly to refactor but allows multi-select.
