Software Engineering White Papers

Taking Software Configuration Management (SCM) to the Next Level

Overview Many software development organizations use Merant PVCS Version Manager or Microsoft Visual SourceSafe to support their Software Configuration Management (SCM) needs. Migrating from one of these SCM solutions to a more comprehensive and complete change management product could cause disruption and violate well-established corporate standards. Because it interoperates with both PVCS Version Manager and Visual SourceSafe archives, Borland StarTeam minimizes these problems. StarTeam does not change the file archives and uses only vendor-supported application programming interfaces to read and write the archived information.
