#11 Support Checkout of Symbolic Links

[Sam Spring]

Hi,

Would it be possible to fully support clearcase functions (e.g. checking in/out) for symbolic links e.g.

In package explore I can see a file is a symbolic link becuase of the icon it displays on the file and the link path shown next to the file name.

I would like to be able to right click -> Team -> Check Out/Check In/Undo Checkout/Version tree etc and your plugin to perform the action on the file the symbolic link is points to.

Do you think this is possible?

Also I see that in version 2.2.2 of the plugin there is a bug fix for:
"checkout of symlink fails to update icon"

I tested this and it does not look like it worked. I checked out the actual file directly in clearcase first. In Eclipse the file (symbolic link) was not showing as checked out. I tried the Team -> Refresh option and even tried de-associating and reacssociating the clearcase plugin. Is this still a bug?

I downloaded the latest version of your clearcase plugin and am using Eclipse 3.5.1.

Thanks

Sam
