Are there any news to this topic with the final release of Team Concert? I am also very interested in running RSA within Team Concert/Jazz.

The comment from James Stuckey about the RSA 7 vs Team Concert
requirements is still true. However, if you have access to the RSA 8 Betas then it should be possible to install both RSA 8 and Team Concert into the same Eclipse shell. mboehmer wrote: Are there any news to this topic with the final release of Team |
The comment from James Stuckey about the RSA 7 vs Team Concert My understanding is that "RSA 8(?)" is built on top of eclipse 3.4, but RTC is built on 3.3; so I assume from the response that RTC is supported on 3.4. I'm curious as to why this scenario would work but the original question (scenario) not work (RSA 7 on eclipse 3.3)? |

I have not tried this in a very long time so I don't recall what the specific incompatibility is, but I believe the short answer is simply that one or more tolerances within the RSA 7 offering are incompatible with the bits included in RTC. In the case of eclipse 3.4 and 3.4-based products, RTC was developed with the intention to make our best effort to ensure eclipse 3.4 compatibility and installation tests were run against the 3.4 product development builds to identify and address issues that arose. -James Jazz Install Team |

Hello James,
RSA/RAD 7.0x was based upon Eclipse 3.2 so there was no way to install RTC into that. However there were ways to cooperate. RSD/RSM 7.0.5 worked. After the release ot RSA 7.5 it works it ships RTC1.0 in the install. BTW the UML parallel development seems to be greatly enhanced in the 7.5 code stream. ldoanminh wrote: |
Seems RSA 7.5 used Eclipse 3.4.1 version. I tried to install RTC client on RSA 7.5 via IBM Installation Manageron, but failed. When I chose "C:\Program Files\IBM\SDP" as the extended Eclipse IDE path, it reported the following error, and the "Next" button is in gray:
There is a package installed at "C:\Program Files\IBM\SDP". The Eclipse IDE must not be the same as an existing package installation directory. Does anyone have some ideas about this problem? Thanks. - Matt |
This looks to be an old request I missed somehow. I'm guessing you
already found the answer but responding in case others have the same question. If you are attempting to shell share with another installation manager installed product, you do this by just selecting the same 'package group' at install time, not by using the install into existing eclipse panel. The general sequence of steps are as follows (order of intallation does not matter): 1. Install first product via the installation manager (i.e. whatever you want to shell share with RTC) 2. Start the installation of RTC. After the license acceptance panel, you will see a panel called 'Install Packages'. There are two choices "Use the existing package group" and "create a new package group". Choose "Use the existing package group" and select the package group for the install from step one (if you have multiple products installed you can select them and additional information will be displayed in the details section at the bottom to help you find the right one). 3. Continue through the wizard and complete the install That's it... -James Jazz Foundation Team Seems RSA 7.5 used Eclipse 3.4.1 version. I tried to install RTC |
I tried the above steps and get getting the error below when I am trying to select "Use the existing package group". I am trying to use the same package group where RSA7.5 is installed. Please let me know if any other changes is required?

You need to remove RTC 1.0 from the RSA install before you install RTC
2.0. The thread http://jazz.net/forums/viewtopic.php?t=5452&highlight=rsa talks more about this. Michael RupeshGupta wrote: I tried the above steps and get getting the error below when I am |
