Line in .epf file too long for ClearCase

[Marak Herold]

Hello everybody,

I have recorded a task for importing the code style profile into Eclipse. 

The problem is that I can not add the .epf file under source control in ClearCase because the /instance/org.eclipse.cdt.ui/org.eclipse.cdt.ui.formatterprofiles line in .epf exceeds 8000 signs. When I am trying to divide this long line to more shorter lines the code style import does not work. 

Do you have any idea how to divide any long line in .epf file into many shorter lines? Or any other idea how to solve my problem?

Thank you!

Marek

Hi Marak,

this is typically a Clearcase problem but you could follow the following link to fix it : http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21146197

Hello Vincent,

thank you for your answer. The problem is that I don't have admin rights to change the element type manager. 

So I was trying to do the first workaround in the troubleshooting - insert line breaks. Unfortunately also with no success.

If you end a line with \ and then start the next line with white space then the line is effectively combined when reading into a Java properties file. I believe that the EPFs are loaded with Properties.load() so you could try that.
