Delete workspace via command line or web client?

Hi,

a workspace belongs to Eclipse. It can be deleted with file system commands.

If you refer to the repository workspace that can be deleted in the Eclipse UI. Not sure there is a commandline option to delete it. The deletion of the Repository workspace does not delete the files in the repository.

The Web UI is not a full replacement for versioning. You can download single files and upload changes again. However this is done directly against a stream.

You can unload the files loaded from a repository workspace to the local disk with unload (which also removes the contained files from your local machine) from the Eclipse UI. I would assume that that lscm has an unload option too.

What is the command line call to delete a workspace? I've searched the forums and site documentation but can't find it.

I don't see an option to delete my workspace in the web client either.

I'm working with the OS/X beta client - version 2.0.2

Thanks in advance.

Thanks Ralph for the prompt reply. Just to clarify, if I want to remove a workspace (stored on our central RTC server) which I created via a call from my local machine using the 'scm create ..' call, I'll need to start eclipse on my local machine - correct? No web client or CLI options exist to remove a workspace from the central server.

Thanks again!

Hi Mark,

the scm create workspace seems to create a repository workspace.
I have not found a command to delete the workspace either.
To delete the repository workspace you can use the RTC Eclipse client. Login to RTC as the user this repository workspace was created for and browse Team Artefacts for that user. In My Repository Workspace you should find it. You can use the delete on the context menu to delete it.

Thanks Ralph, that is what I ended up doing.
