How to install Client for Eclipse IDE (Extension Install) 4.0.2 in Eclipse using IBM Installation Manager
I am new to Jazz. My task is to install Client for Eclipse IDE (Extension Install) 4.0.2 into Eclipse IDE (SR2 ) using IBM Installation Manager. I am not able to find the document relevant to installation.
I saw one link which specifies Eclipse 3.6.5 installation

what version of eclipse to be installed?
how to test the after installation?
Please provide inputs help me to proceed further.
Thanks...
Hi Sathish, the process to install RTC 4.0.2 using Installation Manager is the same for 3.0.1 so those instructions are relevant. The client extension install is used to extend and existing Eclipse based Rational product such as RAD, RFT, RSA, CCRC etc.
Is your goal to install into an existing product? Or just get an install of the RTC eclipse client on a desktop machine?
Hi Josh,
Thanks for your reply,
As my goal is to install the following and to be tested after installation on lab machine.
1. Client for Eclipse IDE - [RTC- Eclipse -Client-repo-4.0.2.zip] -
This one installed using IBM Installation manger and able to connet the Jazz Server
In this installation i have created the repository by pointing the config file then using the wizard to install the RTC Eclipse Client.
2.Client for Eclipse IDE ( Extension Install ) - [RTC- Eclipse -Client-Extension-repo-4.0.2.zip].I need to install this one .
Is that same way as installed like the first one by creating repository? or
Do i need to install this into Eclipse IDE ?
If this to be install in to Eclipse IDE then how to plugin this extension in Eclipse IDE? ( As you said that extension should be installed an existing eclipse product ).
Thanks for your valuable inputs...
Hi Satish, the client extension install is used to add RTC to existing eclipse based Rational products. If you don't have another Rational product that is based on eclipse (like clearcase remote client for example) this won't be useful for you. If you are just looking to add RTC to a standalone eclipse install I'd suggest using the P2 installer. Instructions for that is here P2 instructions
Thanks a lot ..Josh..
