Managing Project Associations (.NET Only)

In addition to the configuration tasks you can perform with the StarTeam Cross-Platform Client, the StarTeam Visual Studio Plugin lets you manage StarTeam associations for your Visual Studio solutions/projects, and set personal preferences for StarTeam behavior. The StarTeam Visual Studio Plugin lets you manage the StarTeam connection properties for Visual Studio solutions/projects with the Manage Associations dialog box. This allows you to view and modify the StarTeam Server, project name, view path, folder path, and root working path associated with your solution/project. You can also disassociate your solution/project from StarTeam or log on as a different user using this dialog box.

Note: If you have files in your solution/project that are located on a path that is not under the directory containing your solution/project, you must map this non-relative path to a folder in the StarTeam Server repository before you can check in the files. The Manage Non-relative Working Paths dialog box lets you map non-relative paths to StarTeam folders in the repository. This dialog box is also opened from the Manage Associations dialog box by clicking Manage Non-relative Paths.
  1. Choose StarTeam > Manage Associations from the main menu or from the context menu of the root solution node in the Solution Explorer. The Manage Associations dialog box opens.
  2. To alter a StarTeam association, click Edit. The StarTeam Associations dialog box opens. Using this dialog box, you can edit the StarTeam association for your solution. You can change the server, project, view, or folder for the corresponding root working path based on your working files.
  3. After you have made your selections, click OK.
  4. Click OK to close the Manage Associations dialog box.
