Version control with JAZZ.net an d WINDOWS explorer
Hello.
For the the Jazz.net based source control you need to deal with eclipse to change files under source control. That is fine for software engineers. In our projects many other people have source controlled files (e.g. purchasing lists, manual test procedures, approval documents). They have no glue of eclipse and it is not their job to get knowledge in eclipse. Clear Case has a integration with the WINDOWS explorer. You can check in / out files directly from the windows explorer and I can create snapshot views on a server which look like normal server locations to "non clearcase users" - good enough to make the documents available to be read by "non software" guys. So two questions 1. Is their a way to offer basic check in / out /add to source control functionality to the WINDOWS explorer, so that you do not have to start eclipse to use those basic feautures. 2. Can I post "snapshot views" of a repository workspace on a server location and update that in regular time intervals -so that all WINDOWS user can see the content without eclipse? Roland |

Hello,
below there is mentioned an access to the Jazz-Repository without the Eclipse-Client via the Web UI. In this case it's only possible to download a single file. Is there a way Thanks for helping |
Thanks Geoffrey I was almost going mad looking for that!

Hello,
Although the web client is a good addition .... I think too, a Windows Explorer integration would be very welcome !!! Development is not limited to Eclipse and Visual Studio. In Windows Explorer integration " la" Tortoise would be good for other tools than VS or Eclipse. Even if not all SCM features are not available in Windows Explorer integration, I think the basic operation like, view incoming/outgoing changes, check in, deliver and accept would be great. Sacha |

Hi,
you've said, that there isn't a windows explorer integration yet. But is there another way to download a folder from Jazz-SCM like a snapshot (without Eclipse or VS). e.g. watching a lot of sourcefiles from an external pc. I've noticed the option to download and edit a single file in WebUI, but I also thought, there was a hint to make my request possible. |

Yes, you can use the RTC scm command line to download files.

Hey, thank you that works.
If I want to download files from an external PC, which of the files from the folder jazz/scmtools/eclipse/ are necessary to be able to download? Or is the complete folder in usage? (50MB) |
