RTC Component deletion
I can see once the component get added you can not delete it. but you can delete stream. If we are adding component under stream why we can not delete the component?

Deleting a stream does not actually delete much information ... in particular, all of the change sets and baselines (and therefore, components) in that stream will continue. So the ability to delete a stream (which you can do) does not imply the ability to delete a component (which currently you cannot do). The ability to delete a component is requested in Enable the deletion of components from the RTC Client (93126)

A stream object in RTC is primarily a reference to a set of "change history" objects (which you can think of as being the list of change sets and baselines you see when you ask for the history of a component in a stream). It also has some metadata, such as a name and description. When you delete a stream, you delete that metadata, but you don't delete the change set history ... so the change sets that define the configuration of that stream (and the components that contain those change sets) are not affected by the deletion of a stream that references them.
@gmclemm, thank you. It was my question for a long time. Finally I got a clear answer.
