In my eclipse Indigo installation, I have the clearcase remote client (CCRC) perspective working - it's connecting the server just fine and the functionality is there. However, in the Java EE perspective most of the buttons are disabled.
When I edited a file in the Java EE perspective, it used to ask (with a previous version of CCRC and eclipse ganymede) if I wanted to check it out. However, now it merely asks if I want to make the file writable (default eclipse behaviour).
Basically most of the CCRC functionality in the Java EE perspective is disabled. I can see the buttons in the toolbar, but they are disabled (greyed out). Clearcase is also not showing up in the right-click context menu under Team.
Thoughts?
All recent CCRC (7.1.x) settings I managed are build on the same premiss:
That the .project and .classpath are part of the snapshot 'web' view which is a CCRC view.
That is what indicates eclipse that this eclipse project is managed under source control.
CCRC has considerably changed its way of running since 7.1 (2009 as this release notes history illustrates)
Since those eclipse definition files should be under source control anyway, this shouldn't be an inconvenient.
