Configuring Roadmap Project Searches

You can specify which types of project space objects are returned by the search when you want to associate a roadmap project with a project. Without the excluded types, all project space objects, such as experiments, baselines, and project snapshots, are returned by the search.

See Property for Configuring Roadmap Project Searches.

  1. Create or open the text file to contain customized properties. For more information, see Editing Properties Using MQL.
  2. To exclude types of project space objects from roadmap project searches, follow these steps:
    1. Add or edit this line in the file used to import properties into a page object: 

      emxProduct.RoadMapProject.ExcludeTypes = type_<project type1>,type_<project type2>,type_<project type3>

      where type_<project type> is the type of project that you want to exclude from roadmap projects.

    2. Set the value for this property depending on your business requirements.

      For example, to exclude experiments, baselines, and project snapshots from roadmap project searches, define the property as follows: 

      emxProduct.RoadMapProject.ExcludeTypes = type_Experiment,type_ProjectBaseline,type_ProjectSnapshot

  3. When finished updating the text file with all properties you want to modify, including the ones shown here, use the text file to modify the emxProductLine.properties page object. For more information, seeEditing Properties Using MQL.
