I'm not sure I'm following the question exactly, but since RTC 1.0, there has been both Eclipse and Visual Studio plugins to work as RTC clients (Note: These capabilities go beyond SCM (which is what MSSCCI focuses on), such as Work Item, Build, Process management, etc.). Neither of these were designed around the MS-SCCI APIs.



That being said, as of RTC 4.0, a MS-SCCI plugin was also released allowing other IDEs (ex: Matlab, Rhapsody, ASCET, etc.) to use MS-SCCI APIs to interface with RTC/EWM. As far as I recall, it was fully compliant with MS-SCCI APIs.

An article talking about the MS-SCCI plugin: https://jazz.net/library/article/87667

So in summary, even though Visual Studio itself is capable of using MS-SCCI plugins, one would NOT use the Jazz RTC SCM MS-SCCI plugin inside Visual Studio, you would instead download the full RTC/EWM client Visual Studio plugin.
