 All you need to know is in the SDK. See https://rsjazz.wordpress.com/2013/02/28/setting-up-rational-team-concert-for-api-development/ . I just wonder why the effort? Why not use the P2 install?

You can find the P2 download on the "All downloads" tab of the download page for your version. You can find how to use it in the product help. https://jazz.net/help-dev/clm/topic/com.ibm.jazz.install.doc/topics/t_client_installation_p2.html
The P" install assumes an Eclipse that supports the P2 install.

 Thanks for sharing the link. I created a Standalone application on top of that am trying to install the RTC thru Installation manager. But when i launched the IM and selected RTC over existing client IDE, it throws an error like 

"The com.ibm.team.install.rtc.client.eclipse package specified in the C:\tmp\RTC-Web-Installer-Win-3.0.1\im\win32.win32.x86\install-client.xml file cannot be found." Not exactly sure what am i missing over here. Can you please help me on this.

Don't you want to use the P2 install? Why Installation Manager? Also, which version of RTC are you going to install?


sai bala commented Jul 24 '15, 12:50 a.m.

Yes i wanted to use P2 install. But i followed this link to install the RTC in my own RCP application. https://jazz.net/library/article/708. Correct me if am overlooked here.

Also i tried the below approach now :
  I have created a RCP product (stand alone application) with Help-> Install new software menu in eclipse Indigo 3.7 version.  And downloaded the P2 install repo for RTC4 ->RTC-Eclipse-Client-Extension-repo-4.0. In this am facing an issue with install new software option getting an error as "internal error occurred while fetching children of jar - null pointer exception in RCP"


Donald Nong commented Jul 24 '15, 12:57 a.m.

The P2 package clearly says as such - "p2 Install Repository" in the download page. For RTC 4.0.6, the download link is
https://jazz.net/downloads/rational-team-concert/releases/4.0.6/RTC-Client-p2Repo-4.0.6.zip

  Thanks for sharing the link. I am trying to install this as an archive in my RCP application, getting below error any reason for this error, i tried all the possible fixes but nothing worked out 


"An internal error occurred during: "Fetching children of jar:file:/C:/Users/Downloads/RTC-Client-p2Repo-4.0.6.zip!/".
java.lang.NullPointerException"

 Thanks for sharing this link.i have added this plugin as a dependency in my RCP product, when i launch it as an eclipse application  i don't see the Pending change view. Do i need to manually add this in Plugin.xml to get it reflected?Also where can i find all the necessary RTC plugin details.
