There are a lot of ways they integrate, and you do not need to necessarily try
to use them all. There are some simple one first:

1) When you commit changes (from any client) includes the text:

[artf1234]

Anywhere within the commit message to create an association between the
artifact and the commit.

2) In Eclipse, right-click on your project and choose Properties. Click on the
Task Repository page and select the SFEE repository that contains the
artifacts. This will create some files within your project. I'd recommend that
you commit them. That way all users of Eclipse will automatically have this
link between the project and the task repository created.

Once this link is established, references to artifacts in commit messages in
the Subclipse History view, or within comments in your code, will be turned
into clickable hyperlinks. When you click, it will open the artifact in the
editor.

3) If you really adopt the Mylyn-way of doing development there are
additional linkages you can get between Mylyn, Subclipse and your task
repository (SFEE). See this info in the Mylyn User Guide:

http://wiki.eclipse.​org/index.php/Mylyn_​User_Guide#Team_Supp​ort

Basically, Mylyn will automatically create change sets in the Subclipse
Synchronize view. Personally, I do not find this that useful because I do not
tend to work on multiple tasks at the same time. If you do, then this is a
fantastic feature.

These are the main ways the products interact. There are lots of subtle
variations depending on the workflow you adopt.
