The reading of each DOORS item (module, folder or project) can be configured here to

• Exclude an item, as if it just did not exist in the DOORS database.
• Force to read all item content completely at once. For example if absolutely all data of a module should be read in a certain use case, configure to read it completely at once can improve performance.
• Request to read a baseline of a module rather than the current state.

Below is a snippet illustrating the various configurations:

 ReaderScope scope = new ReaderScope();

 // request to read all data of a module
 scope.getItemScope("/MyFolder/MyModule").setMode(ItemScopeMode.COMPLETE);

 // request to exclude a folder
 scope.getItemScope("/MyFolder/FolderToExclude").setMode(ItemScopeMode.EXCLUDE);

 // when this module is read on-demand, load the specified baseline and not the current state of the module
 scope.getItemScope("/MyFolder/SecondModule").setBaseline(new BaselineDescriptor(3, 2));

 Map<String, Object> options = new HashMap<String, Object>();
 options.put(Common.OPTION_SCOPE, scope);
 myModel.read("Application", "", options).
