Hello,

 

I am using RTC work items to get problem reports from the field.

I would like to set the option to add link (instead of attachment) to files located on file server.

What is the best way to do it?

Please note that I am using Eclipse client and Web as well.

 Thanks, 

Yaron

You would need to be able to create a URL to the file, and store it as a "related artifact" (you can use a "file:" URL if you cannot create an "http:" URL).

This does not appear to work for links in Chrome or Firefox with RTC 4.0.1. I can put the URL in Chrome manually and it works fine. But then when the link is displayed in the work item and clicked on, it does nothing.  My url is of the form: file://server/dir/dir2/dir3/dir4/dir5/dir6/dir7/Document.docx It works fine in the Eclipse client and with IE 9.0.

See also comment on Defect 210671 (from Eric Jodet):

"The "Add Related Artifact" wizard is implemented with respect of java lang URI API  http://docs.oracle.com/javase/1.5.0/docs/api/java/net/URI.html
that implements the URI spec - http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2396.txt
