StarTeam Eclipse uses MD5 hash values for status calculation and revision matching. Therefore, it needs to know what EOL conversions were used for a file at the last file check-in and check-out operation. StarTeam Eclipse needs to remember these EOL conversions to adjust the locally computed MD5 hash value to the remotely reported ones. For instance, when using the Cross-Platform Client and StarTeam Eclipse in parallel, operations performed by the Cross-Platform Client bypass the StarTeam Eclipse EOL persistency, and result in incorrectly reported statuses.
