When checked-in files are edited by an internal, interactive editor

Use this Rational ClearCase preference option to specify ClearCase behavior when you begin to interactively edit a file in WebSphere Studio that is not currently checked-out. ClearCase performs the selected behavior when you attempt to edit the file.

Select Prompt if you want ClearCase to prompt you to check the file out before editing it. Select Automatically checkout if you want ClearCase to automatically check the file out without notifying you. Select Do nothing if you do not want ClearCase to automatically check the file out or to prompt you to do so when it detects that the file you are editing is not checked out.
