Using ClearCase Integration

This feature is supported in the Ultimate edition only.

With the ClearCase integration enabled, you can perform basic ClearCase operations from inside IntelliJ IDEA.

In this section:

Prerequisites

  • ClearCase client is installed on your computer.
  • IntelliJ IDEA comes bundled with ClearCase plugin. This plugin is turned on by default. If it is not, make sure that the plugin is enabled.
  • ClearCase settings are defined in the ClearCase page of the Settings dialog.
  • ClearCase integration is enabled for the current project root or directory.

ClearCase support

  • When ClearCase integration with IntelliJ IDEA is enabled, the ClearCase item appears on the VCS menu, and on the context menus of the Editor and Project views.
  • The files in the folders under the ClearCase control are highlighted according to their status. See File Status Highlights for file status highlighting conventions.
  • Modifications results are shown in the Version Control tool window.
  • When using ClearCase integration, it is helpful to open the Version Control tool window. The Console tab displays the following data:
