Three distinct help systems are available to you in the Rational® software
integration with Visual Studio.
- Visual Studio Help
- Displays Help about Visual Studio in the Visual Studio Help format. It
contains no information about the Rational ClearCase® integration.
You can get information about a native Visual Studio function by using the
Visual Studio Help menu or the F1 key.
- Help for the Rational ClearCase Client
for Visual Studio .NET
- The information in this Help system is designed to help you start the Rational ClearCase functions
you need while working in the Visual Studio IDE. Because Rational ClearCase has
its own native Help, the Rational ClearCase Client
Help usually does not explain their functions in detail.
- Native Rational ClearCase Help
- After they are started in Visual Studio, many Rational ClearCase functions
use Rational ClearCase windows,
not Visual Studio controls. At that point, you can find detailed information
about a function by clicking Help. Help for Rational ClearCase are displayed
in a separate browser, and do not contain information about the integration
with Visual Studio.
