Breaking VS.NET 2003 and ClearCase Integration

Our site uses both ClearCase and VS.NET, however for various reasons we do not want ClearCase integration turned on in VS.NET.  We seem to get this integration automatically when we install VS.NET on a server with ClearCase already installed.

Are there steps to gracefully break the ClearCase integration

Thanks.

    Hi Tom,

    You can delete the ProviderRegKey registry value under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\SourceCodeControlProvider, and VS will not see Clearcase as the active MSSCCI provider anymore.

    You can achieve the same thing by using a 3rd party scc switcher like this one http://www.codeproject.com/tools/sccswitcher.asp (usefull if you want to re-enable VisualStudio-MSSCCI integration at a later time)
