This integration provides a Team Preference which you can use to change the way the integration works. To bring up the Team Preference follow the steps below:
1.
Bring up the Eclipse Preferences dialog box.
2.
Expand the Team category and select Synergy.
The various options in Synergy Team Preference are explained below:
a.
General
Settings
Check Out File(s) automatically when edited: If you try to modify a file without checking it out first, the integration will automatically check it out for you, if this option is selected.
Prompt to add new project files to Synergy: Select this option if you want the integration to add newly created java files to Synergy. The integration will prompt you first.
Notify for parallel version on check out: If you select this option, the integration will notify you when a check out operation results in parallel versions.
Use three way compare: If you select this option, the ancestor window will be shown during compare operation.
Use Synergy dialogs: If you select this option, Synergy dialog boxes will be used rather than integration specific dialog boxes for many common operations such as showing properties and creating tasks.
b.
Label
Decorator
You can select the fields you want to make part of label decorators. The fields will be separated by character ‘:’.
c.
Data
Persistence
You can choose whether or not to save your Repository view state and Task view state between sessions. If you choose to save, the corresponding view will be created using saved data instead of data from Synergy database. To see the current database state, refresh the views.
d.
Project
Wizard
This section allows you to specify the order in which your projects will be opened during checkout project and open project operations. The order depends on the project nature of projects being opened. This is especially useful for opening projects with multiple subprojects that have dependencies between them.
Note: projects that do not have a project nature or have a nature that is not specified in the project wizard will be opened before those that fit the project wizard criteria.
e.
CR
Attributes
This section allows you to specify which CR attributes are to be displayed in the Change Request view next to each CR. See the Change Request section for additional description.
