Associating a workspace name with a ClearCase view name 

It is a good practice to maintain a separate Eclipse workspace for each Rational ClearCase view that you use. If you are using ClearCase UCM, for example, you should use one Eclipse workspace for your Development view and a separate Eclipse workspace for your Integration view.

You can also use associate an Eclipse workspace with a ClearCase view by using workspace naming conventions that incorporate ClearCase view names.

To associate an Eclipse workspace name with a ClearCase view name:

  1. Create a new ClearCase view <view_tag_name> by clicking ClearCase > Create New View.
  2. Create a new workspace storage directory in Eclipse that corresponds to the ClearCase view: "workspace_<view_tag_name>". 

To move between workspaces, click File > Switch Workspace in Eclipse.
