RTC as document repository

When you say "if I delete a document I have checked in", I assume you
mean "delete it from the file area on my local host"? Then yes, that
will be interpreted as a delete action, and will show up in your pending
changes view, but the deletion won't be committed to the repository
until you "check in" that change. Of course, if you "undo" that change
rather than checking it in, the file will be "restored" on disk (which
probably is not what you wanted).

I believe what you want is work item 99644 "Would like an Eclipse
Perspective that provides a simplifed document management view on SCM
streams", and more specifically work item 113605 "In the Load Repository
Workspace GUI, need option for sparse loading a project with selected
files".

If so, please feel free to indicate your interest/support by adding
comments to either of those work items.

Cheers,
Geoff

I am trying to use RTC as document repository for my project
documents. Couple of questions.

If I delete a document that I have checked-in and delivered from my
local hard drive, does it delete it from the team area on server
also? If yes, is there a way to avoid it?

Do I have to sync up all the documents on the server to my local hard
drive? If not how do I manage all the "Incoming" so that I
do not have to "download" it locally.

Thanks Geoff. What you said is exactly right. I will comment on those two work items to indicate my interest/support.

If anyone else has any "workaround" for this issue, do let me know.

I customised the template in RTC and defined a few fields with Large HTML. Kindly let me know its maximum size it can take.
I need to store 1 GB data in a few fields.. What data type I need to choose in RTC ?
Kindly answer to me asap
