Question

Can we use RoboHelp with Eclipse as version control?

Im am using RoboHelp 7 in the Tech Comm Suite in a Windows XP environment.

I see a lot of information on using RoboSource as versionn control, but I'm not seeing a lot of information on other third-pary version control software.  I did see one posting that suggested that if you are planning to use third-party software, you should uninstall RoboSource first.  I can't seem to figure out the following:

  • How do you determine if your version control (Eclipse) supports Microsoft SCC API?
  • How do you get RH to recognize Eclipse? Even though I uninstalled RoboSource Control 3, it still shows up in the Select Version Control Provider
  • Are there step-by-step instructions anywhere that show how to get RoboHelp to recognize third-party software?

As always, thanks for your assistance.

Peter Grainge has some stuff on his site that may be a good starting place.

Colum,

Thanks for recommending that I visit Peter's web site. It has a great page on Eclipse. Wish I had read it before I was shoved kicking and screaming into using it. However, it did stop short of providing me with information to troubleshoot the problems I'm having with Eclipse and RH 7. I sent him an e-mail from the site and hope that he will be able to answer it.

No problem. Just as an aside, Peter is on holiday at the moment. Although he is looking at emails his response may be a little slower than normal.
