When you use the Eclipse export wizard to create a Team
Project Set, create the project set file in the copy area of a ClearCase
view.
Before you begin
Before you can export an Eclipse Team Project Set to Rational
ClearCase, you must:
- Add all project resources to Rational ClearCase.
- Load the ClearCase view that contains the project sources with
the VOB directory to which you will export the project set file. Although
you can use any VOB directory for this purpose, it a good practice
to put the project set file in its own directory, or in a directory
that contains information related to all projects in the set, but
does not contain any other project resources.
Procedure
To export an Eclipse Team Project Set to Rational ClearCase:
- If you are using a Web view, connect to the ClearCase server
that supports the ClearCase view that contains the projects in the
Team Project Set that you plan to create.
- In the Java perspective, click to start the Eclipse Export
wizard.
- In the Eclipse Export Wizard, select Team Project
Set and click Next.
- In the Eclipse Share Project dialog
box, select ClearTeam Explorer as the repository
type and then click Next.
- Select the projects to include in the
set, and create the project set file. If you create the
project set file in the copy area of a connected ClearCase view, you
are prompted to add it to source control.
- Optional: If the project set file was not added
to source control in step 5,
you must add it to source control before other team members can access
it in the repository. Project set files that are not under
source control can be distributed to team members by other means (for
example, e-mail) and used to import project sets from a VOB.
Results
The project set file is added to source control and is available
for import by other team members.
