can i use jdeveloper with clearcase dynamic views?


Jdeveloper (Oracle's Java IDE) has a clearcase plugin built by oracle too. I have worked with it with clearcase snapshots everything works find.

My question is, how to use it with a dynamic view (I am on linux) ? How do i "set view" with dynamic ?


Solution

  • First, check your ClearCase version: the Oracle jdeveloper ClearCase plugin are quite old.

    This thread mentions that JDeveloper 11.1.2 would only support ClearCase 7.0.x, not 7.1.x or later.

    But anyway, you can try and see if jdeveloper recognizes a view when using the full path of a dynamic view:

    /view/view-tag/full-pathname
    /view/myDynamicView/vobs/avob/...
    

    In other words, you do not have to use cleartool setview (which I have always disliked anyway): you can point jdeveloper to the path of the dynamic view (provided the vob used by the config spec is mounted)
