Links Requirements Tracer

Links Requirements Tracer is a simple tool that allows adding Jama requirement IDs to C and C++ files. When hovering over the requirement ID, it will get the description of the requirement and display it over the requirement ID.

4. Set the tags used to identify your requirements (e.g. @safetyreq)

5. Create new requirement links
   • In source code file, add a tag @safetyreq and a Jama Requirement ID (a.k.a. Project ID) of the desired Jama requirement.
