ClearTeam Explorer Integration with Beanbag Review Board

How To


Summary

Integrate ClearTeam Explorer with Beanbag Review Board.

Objective

The ClearTeam Explorer integration with Beanbag Review Board provides a direct interface for creating or updating review requests. This integration uses the Eclipse Review Board open-source plugin, which provides the wrapper layer that handles Review Board Server REST API communication. A review request can be submitted on a Unified Change Management (UCM) activity or files and folders for UCM and Base ClearCase. On Linux and Windows, four view types are supported: Dynamic, Snapshot, Web, and Automatic.

This Review Board integration is available in the following forms: 

  • ClearTeam Explorer (Rich Client Platform)
  • ClearTeam Explorer for Eclipse IDE
  • ClearTeam Explorer Extension

Steps

Prerequisite

The Review Board currently supports only diff output formatting from GNU Diff. If you use the integration on Windows, you might have to install GNU Diff. Make sure to set the PATH environment variable to include the path of the GNU Diff executable file before you submit a review request. The GNU Diff default installation path is C:\Program Files (x86)\GnuWin32\bin.
