Prerequisites

You will need access to a IBM Rational Team Concert repository and should obtain the necessary credentials and URL for this. You should decide on the structure to use for your projects in the SVN repository.

When you enter a URL for the IBM Rational Team Concert Repository location, this will be the projects root directory. All folders and files beneath this directory will be checked out to the local working copy. This repository location may initially be empty, but it must exist. The framework server will not attempt to create it.

You will also need to decide on the location, on the framework server, of the local working copy for IBM Rational Team Concert checkouts. This must be in a filesystem with sufficient space for the copy and in a folder that the framework server has read/write access to.

This plugin requires an IBM Rational Team Concert client (the scm or lscm command line utilities) to be installed on the RapidDeploy server. Please also see the IBM Rational Team Concert Web Services Plugin.

Create, update and commit operations

This plugin, when selected, creates a local workspace in the specified directory on the framework server. This copy is used for all updates and commits for the project to which it is associated.

The local workspace is created during project creation when this plugin is selected.

The local workspace is automatically updated when doing a project files import or when preparing to edit any project files through the framework server UI.

Local workspace changes are automatically committed when saving a project or during a save of any project files.

This plugin supports manual updates, commits and resynchronisation actions by using the buttons on the Scm tab of the project panels.
