Source Code

The source code for the Ascent 7.0 Release Script for IBM DB2 Content Manager Enterprise is

provided and it is located on the Ascent 7.0 Release Script for IBM DB2 Content Manager

Enterprise installation CD in the IBM\CM8 folder. The source code can be opened, edited, and

compiled in Visual Basic 6.0 with Service Pack 6.

X To modify the release script

Install the IBM DB2 Content Manager Enterprise release script. Refer to Installing the

Release Script on page 16 for the installation instructions. When you install the Content

Manager release script, you will install the required components referenced in the source

code.

Open, make any desired modifications, and compile the Content Manager source code in

Visual Basic.

Copy the newly created CMRel8_v7.dll to the installation directory (for example,

C:\Program Files\Ascent\CAP\IBM\CMRel8_v7.dll). When you are prompted to

replace the existing file, select “Yes.” You will need to repeat this procedure on each

Administration and Release workstation that will be using the IBM DB2 Content Manager

Enterprise release script. You may want to make a copy of the file for backup purposes,

and store the copy in a safe location.

Note

In order to successfully modify and compile the release script, development must occur on a

workstation with the appropriate versions of Ascent Capture, CAPTools, and the IBM DB2

Content Manager Enterprise release script previously installed. To use the modified release script,

you must replace the IBM DB2 Content Manager Enterprise release script CMRel8_v7.dll with the

modified version on the client workstation. If you receive an access denied error, you will need to

close the Administration module.

Refer to the documentation that came with your DB2 Content Manager Enterprise Edition product

and Visual Basic documentation for assistance.
