Hi,
I am trying to create some additional plug-ins in a directory outside the
workspace. I need to do this so that the plugins are under clearcase
control. On the plugin creation wizard, I turn off "Use Default" and
select the top level directory called "K:\vob\ide", then the wizard
creates my plugin under the k:\vob\ide directory. (K:\vob\ide\plugin1)
The next time I try to create another plugin using the same scenario. I
want to create a "K:\vob\ide\plugin2". But the plugin creation wizard
prevents me from going past the first page of the wizard. The directory I
selected is "K:\vob\ide". The top of the wizard complains that the
"K:\vob\ide and (K:\vob\ide\plugin1 overlap".
How do I use this feature properly?
Bob

Jean,
It is case 2. The plugin.xml file gets created in the /vob/ide/plugin1
directory and the two projects end up overlapping.
Seems odd that I am the first to encounter this. This would seem like a
common thing for developers to do, especially if anyone is working with a
source control system like clearcase.
Has anyone determined a workaround?
