using Jazz for FPGA design
One answer
Hi Zohar,
RTC is being used in many different domains, not all of which are IDE-based code development. For example, the Work Items and Planning support are being used in some call center and CRM situations. But I assume you're talking about the SCM support, and the ability to manage your design files under source control.
Here, you could use the Eclipse or VS clients, but do not have to. You could use the SCM Command Line Interface (CLI) instead. The SCM web UI is also getting more and more full featured, e.g. you can do basic document management scenarios (adding/removing files to the stream) via the web UI.
You can still take advantage of Jazz SCM's integration with Work Items and Build in this way. Builds can be viewed and requested via the web UI and Eclipse UI, though currently their setup needs to be done via the Eclipse UI.
Hope this helps clarify some of the possibilities.
