Check out and check in projects in Eclipse

In the Eclipse IDE, you can check out and check in projects from/to a Dimensions CM repository.

To check out a project:

  1. Right-click the project and select Team > Checkout. The Check Out dialog box opens with a list of selected files.

  2. Modify the panes as necessary.

  3. Click Finish. A checkmark is displayed next to each file icon to indicate that the files are checked out.
