You add resources to source control so that you can track changes
and share your work with others.
In this topic, you will add your Eclipse project to source control
in the tutorial VOB.
To add a project to source control:
- Connect to the ClearCase server, if you are not already connected.
Expand the
My Views node in
the ClearCase Navigator, right-click on the view called
yourname_tut_view and
click
Connect. In the
Login to ClearCase dialog
box, fill in the connection details, and click
OK.
Note: You
can also select the view and click the

(
Connect
to ClearCase Server) button in the toolbar or you can select from the
ClearCase menu.
In addition, if you are not connected to a ClearCase server and you perform
an action that requires such a connection, the
Login
to ClearCase dialog box appears automatically.
- In the ClearCase Navigator, navigate to the docs folder
in your project folder.
- In the ClearCase Details view, right-click the notes.txt file
and click .
- In the Add to Source Control dialog box, click
the Show Details button (if it is available), type
a comment in the Comment field, and click OK.
The notes.txt file and its parent directories, docs and yourname_tutorial, are added to source control. (A file cannot be added
to source control unless the directories above it are also under source control.
In this case, only the parent directory is added to source control.)
- In the ClearCase Details view, right-click the readme.txt file
and click .
- In the Add to Source Control dialog box, click
the Show Details button (if it is available), type
a comment in the Comment field, and click OK.
Your tutorial folder, the docs directory, and the two text files are
now under source control. Note that the value of the State field
in the ClearCase Details view is now Loaded instead of View Private.
