APAR status
Closed as program error.
Error description
When opening a Visual Studio project created without a solution file, the ClearCase plugin is not available in Visual Studio 2013-2015. For theses projects, the selection of ClearCase in the source control plug-in (Tools > Options > Source Control) is not persistent and is reverted back to "none" at the next opening of the project.
Local fix
- Keep the ClearCase frontdesk open, this reduce the issue but does not fix it - Create and add to source control a solution file that contain: GlobalSection(RationalClearCase) = preSolution SourceControlProvider = RationalClearCase EndGlobalSection
