Is it possible to set the EOL settings so that no matter which platform a file is checked out to, the EOL format will remain as the user has defined and is not automatically changed according to the platrform it is checked out to?

The EOL format can be explicitly set on the StarTeam Client for a specific file or during the process of adding/checking in the file to StarTeam. The EOL Format can be:

-- FIXED_{CR, LF, CR_LF} - EOL is fixed to the particular EOL regardless of the platform
-- CLIENT_DEFINED - the EOL is determined by the client and StarTeam should not attempt to interpret it in any way

To change how StarTeam manages the EOL characters of a file during the Add / Check in process:

1. Within the file Add / Check-in dialog click on the button labelled "Advanced"
2. Check "Set EOL check-out format"
3. Select the preferred option from the pull down menu, FIXED_{CR, LF, CR_LF} or CLIENT_DEFINED
4. Click "Ok" to complete the change and continue with the file add / check-in

To change the same settings on a specific text file:

1. Right click on the file
2. Choose Properties
3. Locate the pull down menu labelled "EOL check-out format"
4. Select the preferred option from the pull down menu, FIXED_{CR, LF, CR_LF} or CLIENT_DEFINED
5. Click "Apply" to commit the change.
