clearcase

I've recently started working on a new project for which the development team is using ClearCase for version control (the project is coded mostly in java and ExtJs). I'm hearing the terms 'View' and 'Branch' being thrown around a lot - are these terms interchangeable? If not, could you please provide a layman's explanation of a View and a Branch and how they relate to each other. Are Views and Branches particular to ClearCase or are these terms used in other version control systems as well? VonC I'm hearing the terms 'View' and 'Branch' being thrown around a lot - are these terms

There is a problem in importing a packet in Clearcase replica. We researched a lot to resolve the issue, but as per IBM this is a bug in a particular version of clearcase. So if there is any way to skip importing that particular packet,that would really help us in resolving the sync issue. Issue : [ http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg1PM53060] Our vob servers are already already on the version which as per above tech note has a fix for the issue, still the issue persists Not that I know of. The syncreplica documentation does mention it "skips" packets only when: > the update

We're using RAD with ClearCase plugin as "ClearCase Explorer Perspective". I need to make a new main version of a java project. For that reason, I want to change main/0 version to ie. main/1. How can I forward version from top-level? I tried to make new project by using "Project Explorer" creating new stream. It required previous baselines. However, when I checkin from this new project stream, it branches from the given baseline version(say 1) like below. main | 0 | MyProj1_Integration | 0 | 1(BL)---MyProj2_Integration | | 2 0 | 1 I want it to be like: main 0 ------------------- 1 | | MyProj1

I'm not a ClearCase expert... I would like to get a version of my project as it was, let's say one week ago, or maybe as it was when I finished an old activity. Is it possible to do so? How should I do? (Please provide detailed steps :) ) VonC For one file, you can use cleartool get , as described in " Clearcase command to export an element ". But for a full view, I would recommend using a time-base config spec rule. See for instance: " how to find out all the activities happend in a branch in the last month? ".

I have 3 views on my machine, I can see the structure on the windows directory but now when I open ClearCase I cannot see any of them on the ClearCase Navigator...how can I add them? The cleanest solution: Go at the root directory of one of those views in a shell session (DOS or bash or...) type: clearexplorer . (Note the final space followed by a dot ' . ') That will open the ClearCase Explorer directly in the current path, and will restore the right shortcut. The "less-clean" solution: Open the ClearCase Explorer, and ask for a "refresh view shortcuts" Alt + F5 . If your identity hasn't

I'm having problems simply configuring the server for CruiseControl.NET. I am using the source block that is given by ThoughtWorks to set it up, but I cannot seem to get it to be error-free. I am pretty new to all this and some sort of direction would be fantastic. Does anyone use this combination? Do you have a ccnet.config file I can look at? This is what does not work for me: <cruisecontrol> <project name="test"> <sourcecontrol type="clearCase"> <exec>batch file</exec> <viewPath>path_name</viewPath> <branch>main</branch> <autoGetSource>false</autoGetSource> <useLabel>true</useLabel>

I am not able to set view on the server even though I have re-mounted the file system , getting below error : $ cleartool setview view_name cleartool: Error: Timed out trying to start view_server for view PATH cleartool: Error: See view server error log and/or look for view_server problem on host Hostname cleartool: Error: Couldn't set view tag tagename: error detected by ClearCase subsystem VonC First, try to avoid * enter code here : it spawns a subshell which is tricky for your current session and environment variables. Then, check if the issue us the same when you simply try to start that
