Summary

In this chapter, we revisited importing a subversion dump into Rational Team Concert, only this time using the sample application that we will use through the rest of this book—BookManager. We created the team area for our new project, and added the Repository Workspace where we loaded the components of the project. We took a quick look at the BookManager's functionality, and learned how to use Rational Team Client to build it into a distributable application. Finally, we ran both the command-line administrative utility for BookManager, to create the database and add users, and deployed and ran the WAR file that comprises the user functions of BookManager.

In the next chapter, we will see in-depth aspects of team and source control in Rational Team Client and Server. We will see items such as team roles, permissions, configuring teams, change sets, submitting the change sets, streams, and more.
