Lost Functionality in RTC CCM 4.0.3 SVN PlugIn no Longer configurable
We have upgraded from RTC 4.0.2 CCM to RTC 4.0.3 dowloaded the IBM RTC Eclipse Client. Need to add the SVN plugin to tie revisions to work items. Following the IBM instructions to configure the plugin the options are no longer available in the 4.0.3 RTC client? There is no reference in the release notes or news worthy information to indicate that this functionality has been removed? Has anyone else seen this behavior. We are using Windows 7 workstations.
This is the Eclipse RTC client version downloaded from jazz.net Rational Team Concert
Version: 4.0.3 Build id: RTC-I20130517-1856 We can install the 4.0.2 RTC Client and the functionality is there and configurable as indicated in the documentation found on Jazz.net. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. we did open a PMR for this issue. |

There is an open defect 274862 for this issue. It is an IM packaging issue. The work around is to install a generic eclipse client, use the RTC-Client-p2Repo-4.0.3.zip through the Eclipse Help --> Install New Software
select add --> use the archive selection to traverse to the location of the zip file. Run the installations ensuring you click Group items by category. The Jazz SVN Connections are still categorized in a different menu Window-->show view-->other--File System The rest of the configuration for SVN Plugin follows the same instructions for previous versions. Works fine. Hope this helps others.... |
This is what we have tested. It appears if you do a fresh install of 4.0.3 RTC Eclipse Client it does not work.
here are the results RTC 4.0.2 Eclipse Client installed SVN Plugin Installed and Configured works RTC 4.0.2 Eclipse Client installed with SVN Plugin Installed and Configured, upgrade to RTC 4.0.3 works RTC 4.0.2 Eclipse Client installed no SVN Plugin Upgrade to RTC 4.0.3 install SVN Plugin able to configure works RTC 4.0.3 Eclipse Client fresh install, install SVN Plugin unable to configure - broken no options in menus Comments
