AccuRev features, for both the
AccuRev GUI and
AccuRev Web UI, is available on the
Eclipse toolbar. See

Eclipse allows you to select objects from multiple projects,
AccuRev commands are available only if all the selected objects belong to the same

Output from
AccuRev Commands
AccuRev uses custom
Console and
Search/Status views to display output from
AccuRev commands. These views, along with
Eclipse’s own Synchronize and History views, constitute the
AccuRev perspective. For a description of these views, see Working in the
AccuRev Perspective.
