Clearcase plugin and non-clear case source files

Was the path that caused the error excluded in the check in?
If is does look at the console and see if you can see a plugin output with
that path. If it does you might want to file a bug with JetBrains. The
plugin should not have received the path in the first place if you excluded
it.
If not could you please send me a project testcase? I would be more than
happy to fix it for you.

Hi Jacques,

I am still having this problem and would try to get it resolved, i.e. having
mutiple source trees within a single IntelliJ project, and some of the trees
are under ClearCase version control and others are not.

Again, my problem is that the ClearCase Plugin, or IntelliJ, seems to think
that everything is under ClearCase control (this is not the case with CVS,
there IntelliJ 'knows' which source tree is not under source control). When
I add a new file to a package not under source control, the ClearCase Plugin
thinks that it is under source control.

Your earlier email asked "was the path excluded in the check in?"

I don't see anyway to configure some paths to be 'included' and others to be
'excluded'

Can you give me more detail about how to exclude a path from source control?

Thank you,

Ted Hill

I think what I meant was: Did you put these paths in the Excluded path
section of your project.
However I can infer from your email that it would not help you since you
would still need to see these files in IDEA which the Excluded paths would
hide completely.
I suggest you file a request for this because right now everything that is
not excluded will be presented to the check in project. You need to be able
to Exclude some paths from the VCS control but not necessarily from the
LVCS. Do you need IDEA to keep history on these paths that are not under
clearcase? I would unless I can completely regenerate the content of these
paths.

Let me know what you think.

More specifically for this I need more info to determine if it is a bug in
the plugin or in IDEA. Could you turn on all diagnostics as show at
http://www.intellij.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/ClearcasePluginManual#Troublesho
oting and send me the log file.

Thanks

Hi Jacques,

Thanks for following up on this.

I submitted a request, ID 9769.

I'm not familiar with the API for plugins, so not sure if I'm requesting the
right thing or not.

Thanks,

Ted Hill
