Creating Projects

  1. Open a StarTeam perspective or view.
  2. Choose StarTeam > Project > New.
    The New Project Wizard opens.
  3. Select a server configuration for the project from the Server list.
    Note: If the server you want is not in the Server/Project Tree, click Add Server and add it using the Add Server dialog box.
  4. Click Next to continue.
  5. Type the name and description for the new project in the Project Name and Project Description fields, and click Next.
  6. Browse to the folder on your computer that will be the default working folder for the project root folder.

    If the working folder does not exist, type the folder path and name and the New Project Wizard will create it.

    Note: The default working folder must point to a location that is physically discrete for each user, such as a drive on your local computer or a personal directory on a shared file server.
  7. Click Next.
  8. Optionally, if the working folder has child folders, select any child folders you do not want added to the project and click Exclude.
    Tip: Click Reset to include the previously excluded folders.
  9. Click Finish to complete and open the project.
    Note: After you create a project, the Server Explorer window displays a hierarchical Folder Tree of folders in the current view of the project. You can add other folders, if desired.
