Eray İzgin (11611724) | asked Sep 21 '18, 5:01 a.m.

we use rational business developer and rational team concert to develop mainframe and java applications and need newer versions of eclipse. For now, eclipse version Version: 4.4.2.v20150204-1700 is and rbd9.5,  rtc version is 6.0.4. Is it possible to upgrade eclipse version without upgrading rtc/rbd?

Thank you

For RTC 6.0.4, start with the System Requirements page and the links to the Clarity report where you will find the info on what levels of Eclipse are supported for RTC 604


When I followed the links to Clarity, and looked at the Eclipse runtime environment, I found this statement:
The RTC Client bundles 4.2.2 (with some level of fix pack). You may also use the 4.2.2 installation to install RTC via p2 install over Eclipse 4.6.1, 4.6.2 and 4.6.3.

and

The RTC Client bundles IES 4.2.2.1. You may also use the 4.2.2.1 installation to install RTC via p2 install over Eclipse 4.4, 4.4.1 or 4.4.2.


I hope this answers your question or at least steers you in the right direction.
