box.
- Select .
- Specify how you want the Rational
ClearTeam Explorer for Eclipse to behave when checked-in files are
edited (opened) or saved by an Eclipse editor. Different
preferences can be specified for interactive editors (which support
prompting), non-interactive editors (which do not support prompting),
and internal editors.
- Select Automatically checkout if you
want the Rational ClearTeam Explorer for Eclipse to check out the
file automatically.

the Rational ClearTeam Explorer for Eclipse to prompt you to check

- If you selected Automatically checkout or Prompt
to checkout for any of the editors in the previous step,
you must select one of three Hijack Options for Checkout.
Note that the hijack options only apply to Web views.
- Select Do not hijack to prevent the
Rational ClearTeam Explorer for Eclipse from hijacking the file when
a checkout is not possible.
- Select Hijack only if disconnected to
allow hijacking only when you are disconnected from the CCRC WAN server.

even when a checkout is possible.

Eclipse workspace.

patterns you have configured Eclipse to ignore are not considered
during this operation.

you want the Rational ClearTeam Explorer to prompt you to add each
new resource to source control.

you want the Rational ClearTeam Explorer to add each new resource

- Specify how you want the Rational ClearTeam Explorer for
Eclipse to behave when you initiate a ClearCase operation that could
modify a file that has been edited in a Eclipse editor but has not
yet been saved. (Eclipse editors in which files have been
modified but not saved are referred to as "dirty.")
- Select Prompt to save dirty ClearCase editors if
you want to be prompted to save each editor in which a file under
ClearCase control has been modified.

force Eclipse to save all editors in which files under ClearCase control
have been modified.

the logical model name for each physical file in the checkout, checkin

to specify that operations performed on logical model elements, or
files that represent logical model elements, use the logical model
name and not the physical file name. This option only applies to the
checkout, checkin and undo checkout dialog boxes. The logical name
displays in the Artifact column. The default
setting for this option is off.
