Do not forget the time directive of selection rule. element /myPath/… /main/{!created_since(16-Sep-2009)} element /myPath/… /main/LATEST Can enable you to see versions from a month ago (see time and query) See also “time-based rule” answer. From there you can branch and update your code from this older stable point.
individual stream for each developer under DV stream Whoât???? This is SPARTA! (err… no: madness: this is madness) A stream represents a development effort, not a sandbox for a “resource” (i.e. “a developer”). Resources come and go, development tasks stay. You should have a stream per development line, upon which many developers create their own … Read more
A first possibility would be to try and select the correct version of the sub-directory to revert, like: element /path/to/directory /main/[branch]/[version] But that would be plain wrong, because: extended path names is not supported in snapshot view, as explained in this SO question. to select the directory alone is not enough (the files would still … Read more
I would recommend this question: Now the problem is to checkin everything that has changed. It is problematic since often not everything has changed, and ClearCase will trigger an error message when trying to check in an identical file. Meaning you will need 2 commands: ct lsco -r -cvi -fmt “ci -nc \”%n\”\n” | ct … Read more
If you don’t want to merge a specific type of file, you can change its type to a “copy merge” policy (ClearCase will copy the source over the destination) cleartool find . -name ‘*.jar’ -exec ‘cleartool chtype “COPY_MERGE” $CLEARCASE_XPN’ This is an improvement from the NEVER_MERGE presented in this IBM article, and is available in … Read more
2… 1 cleartool descr -l project:[email protected]\myPVob with some grep, you have the list of components (writable or not) and policies. If you want only the Streams: cleartool lsproj -tree [email protected]\myPVob You can repeat that for a Stream (to get the sub-streams) cleartool lsstream -tree [email protected]\myPVob For the foundation baselines of a Stream: cleartool descr -fmt … Read more
If you consider the fmt_ccase options, %[latest_bls]CXp will always list the latest baseline for all components of a given Stream. So it is best to parse the result, and for each baseline name, to display its component name: cleartool describe -fmt “%[component]Xp” [email protected]/aPVob Also: %[latest_bls]CXp seems to be the only way to get directly the … Read more
If you are in a view, you can: get the current stream cleartool lsstream -cview get all baselines for a component in that stream cleartool lsbl -comp [email protected]\myPVob -stream [email protected]\myPVob get all foundation baselines for that stream cleartool descr -fmt “%[found_bls]CXp” stream:[email protected]\myPVob Don’t forget that in a view on a stream with a modifiable component, … Read more
What is described by skwllsp can be be done in a dynamic view through the use of extended pathnames cd m:/myDynamicView/MyVob/path/to/file cleartool lsvtree myFile cleartool checkout -c “cancel co” myFile copy [email protected]@/main/xx myFile cleartool checkin -nc myFile with xx being the version number you want to restore. But should you have made multiple checkins, including … Read more
One of the side-effects of a dynamic view is that ClearCase will control the attributes of the file you access to through the network, as opposed of a snapshot view (where everything is copied on your hard drive). 1/ Yes it is possible, even though it isn’t really an “hijacked” state. The dynamic equivalent is … Read more
