Overview of Software Specification Attributes

 

 

 

To add a dependency attribute using the OR relationship

 

 

 

 

IMPORTANT

 

 

Use the OR relationship when you need to specify multiple

 

 

 

corequisites or prerequisites attributes in a set, where only one of

 

 

 

the set must satisfy the dependency. An OR relationship is specified

 

 

 

within an OR corequisites set (or OR prerequisite set). The software

 

 

 

specification value for a given OR set is comprised of the individual

 

 

 

software specification for each corequisites (or prerequisites)

 

 

 

attribute it contains. When a new corequisite or prerequisite is added to

 

 

 

an OR set, the software specification value for that attribute is appended

 

 

 

to the OR set's software specification and separated by the pipe symbol

 

().
