CCSv4 source control - check out of header files

Hi Champs,

it seems that checking out header files under source control (clearcase) in CCSv4 is not straightforward. Header-Files that are referenced from a C-file and added to the Project File Explorer won't offer the dialog whether the user wants it to check out when edited (as it does when starting to edit C-Files).

A workaround is to manually add header files to the project which is not what you really want to do.

Is there a setting that needs to be selected to make this work or is there a more suitable workaround to that issue?

Thanks and regards,

Juergen

    I have a related issue. 

    I have created my project where I use the option to link files (Project->Link Files to Active Porject) instead of adding files (Project->Add Files to Active Project). The reason is I want to use the files from original clearcase view / VOB folders and not copy into workspace (which Add Files option does). My *.h files are also in their espective folders in the Clearcase view.

    When I search for any item (using Navigate->Search) it only shows occurrence in .c files, not in .h files (I use File name patterns *.c,*.h).

    Please help.
