Re: Framemaker Plug-in for Clear Quest/Clear Case?
Hi! I have used FrameMaker and ClearCase before. I don't particularly see a need to link together all the files in a book within ClearCase, unless you're going directly from ClearCase to FM or invoking ClearCase from FM itself. Of course, you have to treat FM files as binary; you can't compare unstructured files and comparing MIF or SGML/XML files makes little sense. PDFs also have to be treated as binary. Also be sure to test your files between platforms if you are working in a mixed Windows/UN*X environment.

Framemaker Plug-in for Clear Quest/Clear Case?
All, New gig here and like so many others have done on this list, getting them converted from Word to Framemaker. My SCM guy just stopped by to talk to me about getting the Framemaker files into Clear Case. He has worked with Framemaker files before (yea!) and seems to remember a long time ago that there was a plug-in that helped link all the files in a Framemaker book when using Clear Case. Does anyone know of such a plug-in or heard of one? And, if you're using Clear Case with Framemaker, any helpful tidbits, bites of knowledge, gotcha's, etc. that I would need to know would be most helpful. (At previous gigs, we used either VSS, so Framemaker files weren't an issue, or CMVC, so we just used the PDFs and worked with the deltas between releases.)

My SCM guy just stopped by to talk to me about getting the Framemaker files into Clear Case.
