team coding

[fra]

Hi all,
i work in a company where any other developer use toad with team coding feature installed in a way that one lock a package and no one else can use it;
I want to use this feature with pl/sql developer, so i have installed the plugin VCS, but VCS menu item is disabled;
The dba has sed to me that there is no Version Control System has installed but only team coding;
And with Toad it works right;
where i can find help about this issue?
My be it is necessary to install Microsoft SCC Interface Specification but where i find it and how i install it?

thanks
really much

The VCS Plug-In requires that you use a (3rd party) version control system. The Plug-In interfaces with such a version control system for operations such as check-in, check-out, difference, history, and so on.

Thanks Marco,
Could you suggest to me where i can find it?
and also which one?
As indicated on the site there are three:
1)Microsoft Visual SourceSafe
2)Merant (Intersolv) PVCS
3)MKS Source Integrity
but i wasn't able so far to find anyone of them.And honestely i do not know how to install it.

thanks

Subversion is probably the most popular version control system at the moment.

I encountered a few issues with PL/SQL Developer's (PLSD) integration with TOAD and SQL*Nav with regard to version control.
NAV has it's own set of tables that it populates when you check code in/out. This is what prevents other developers from editing the code while you have it checked out. PLSD's plug in is not aware of these tables and does not insert information into them.
The other issue is that the check in looks for a file called PACKAGENAME.extension. NAV and TOAD seem to look for SCHEMA.PACKAGENAME.extension
