Working in the team environment with Rational ClearCase

The ClearCase Remote Client supports a variety of team development tasks.
About this task
Working in a team environment with the ClearCase Remote Client requires that you perform routine tasks such as:
  • Connecting to a Rational ClearCase server and creating ClearCase views
  • Populating ClearCase views by loading them with resources from ClearCase repositories or by creating resources locally and adding them to ClearCase source control.
  • Modifying resources in ClearCase views
  • Committing your modified resources to the repositories so that they can be shared with your team
The ClearCase Remote Client provides access to Rational ClearQuest user databases, which allows you to perform the following tasks:
  • Connecting to a Rational ClearQuest user database
  • Running ClearQuest queries.
  • Viewing and editing ClearQuest records.
If your team uses the Rational ClearCase UCM integration with Rational ClearQuest, you can also connect UCM activities to ClearQuest records, create ClearQuest records, and automatically transition the states of the ClearQuest records.

In addition, you might occasionally need to configure the ClearCase Remote Client to suit personal preferences, upgrade it to a newer version, or perform other maintenance tasks.

All tools and dialog boxes described in this section are available on ClearCase toolbars, from context menus in the ClearCase Navigator and ClearCase Details view, and from menus in the menu bar. If you are using the Rational ClearCase Remote Client for Eclipse, you can also access them from the Eclipse Team context menu.

Every view and dialog box in the ClearCase® Remote Client provides context-sensitive Help. To get Help for the ClearCase Remote Client interface that has the current focus, press the platform-specific help key (such as F1 on Windows).
