Summary: (reported by users)
"ClearCase functionality that Actually works is adding and checking out files - renaming, refactoring and
deleting is broken "
1) Inability to refactor directories and files (fx. moving a Java package)
"Basically any operation that renames or moves a file/folder, ends up in
chaos."
2) IDEA gets out of sync with clearcase explorer
"The sync problem comes usually when refactoring has been performed, then
intellij simply does not discover that changes has been done in the stream
and keeps Files at their old places."
3) Deletion of resources
"Regarding the deletion problem, if you delete a file from IDEA then the
file will only be deleted from the file system but not from clearcase."
Environment: ???
However, I noticed that
a) file contents sometimes is not updated in the editor (after some operations)
OR
b) file does not appear in Project Explorer pane, for instance, after rollback.
But the changes in file contents or structure are shown after manual "Synchronize".
Is that the exact problems you suffer from?
I understand that this is very serious problem, so please help us better indentify the cases.
