Java Clearcase API

Is there a Java ClearCase API?

+1  A: 

The is no Java API dedicated for ClearCase.

There is a Java CM API, but about the Rational CM Server used by CCRC (a light-client installation, a simple web server which will forward all request to the actual ClearCase VOB server), not for ClearCase per se:

  • it won't support dynamic views (since a CCRC always operates with snapshot "web" views)
  • it won't support all ClearCase operations, only some of the ones supported by CCRC.

How does the CC plugin in eclipse work? Perhaps that can be used in a non-eclipse context?

@omerkudat: it encapsulates `cleartool` commands and direct call to ClearCase executable (like the `lsvtree`)
