Tool Mentor:
Setting Up and Configuring the Rational Process Workbench Tool
Purpose
This tool mentor describes how to set up and configure the Rational Process
Workbench (RPW) for your environment.
This tool mentor relates to the Rational Unified Process information:
Overview
The RPW is implemented as an add-on to Rational Rose and
requires that Rose is installed and operational on your system before the RPW can be installed. All
RPW functions become
available when the add-on is enabled in the Rose add-in
menu.
RPW helps
you develop process models and process component models that are maintained as
separate files in the file system, and Process Content Libraries (PCLs) that are
a number of files in a directory.
Tool Steps
Perform these steps to set up and configure this tool:
- Enable and
disable the RPW add-in to Rational Rose
- Customize templates
RPW is implemented as an add-in
to Rose and installs itself as that during the installation.
As a Rose add-in, RPW can be enabled or disabled using Rose’s add-in
manager.
 Refer
to the topic titled Enabling the Process Workbench add-on in Rational Rose
in the RPW online Help for detailed
information.
Each PCL contains a template section that
provides the HTML templates for content files. These template files are
themselves standard HTML files, which can be modified using your favorite HTML
editor to include or exclude sections, your logo, and so forth.
Once the template is
modified, files subsequently created and based on that template will include
those modifications.
Refer
to the topic titled Customizing templates in the RPW online Help for detailed
information.
For More Information 
For detailed information on
this procedure, see Chapter 5, "Setting up and configuring the RPW tool" in
the Developing Process Using Rational Process Workbench manual.
