VCS settings

[CK0]

Hi,
Searching for the most user-friendly way to use the VCS-plugin with ClearCase.
Purpose is to work directly with the sources in the database, so I have set the "Allow version control over DB objects" preference.
However, when I checkout fi a procedure via PL/SQL Developer, I get the code stored in ClearCase, not the code stored in the database.
Do I have to change other settings?

If you check out a file, you will indeed get the source from ClearCase. The version control system should be leading.

There is currently no setting that allows you to check out a file, ignore the controlled file version, and work with the version from the database.

OK, thank you.

I have created a stored procedure TEST in the database and added this to ClearCase.
The version in the db is identical to the version in ClearCase.

I can right-click on the procedure-name in the browser, Checkout, Modify, compile and checkin without any problem.
This is as expected.

But I now encountered the following:
I right-click on the procedure and select View.
I checkout by right-clicking in the 'view source' window. I modify the code and compile.
When I checkin the file by right-clicking in the 'view source' window I get a save as dialog. Chosing to overwrite the already existing file results in an access denied error. If I right-click in the browser, I do not get the dialog and the file is checked-in normally
