clearcase

We use ClearCase as control version system. In our system sometimes we make releases without some developers commits because of time limit. For example I made some changes in six classes but another user did changes in all or some of them also. And I have to commit code without his changes. So I scan my files with previous versions so that I can revert his changes. But it's a slow and boring process. Is there another way to do that? Maybe an extension or a script? VonC The only way to automate that process is through: subtractive merge or negative merge (as described in this IBM article ):

How to get the list of the activities between two baselines in a file in clearcase ucm ? Cleartool diffbl -lsact -pred latestlable >>activities.txt is the command used . VonC Don't forget to add @\yourPVob , as shown in cleartool list activities since last 7 days . cleartool diffbl -act -pred baseline:latestlable@\yourPVob Note: on Unix, this would be @/vobs/yourPVob . It is best to use the baseline selector syntax (see diffbl man ): baseline-selector is of the form: [baseline:]baseline-name[@vob-selector] and vob is the baseline's UCM project VOB. Here is an example in python found on

Is there a command in Cleartool which i can use to list all files which have been removed from a branch? Thanks The basic command to find anything in ClearCase is... cleartool find , also illustrated in " ClearCase UCM: Need to See Content of Deleted File ". In your case, you would search for versions of files which aren't at the LATEST of a branch: cleartool find . -type f -version "! version(.../BRANCH/LATEST)" -print (see version selector for more on this ' .../ ' notation) To display only the file (and not all the versions): cleartool find . -type f -element "! version(.../BRANCH/LATEST)"

I created a snapshot view using Rational ClearCase explorer. After creating it, I tried compiling my code and got an MVFS error: Unable to determine if the current working directory is in MVFS - no such device or address When I searched the IBM website for the sake of eliminating this error, I found out that a snapshot view does not use the MVFS. Why am I getting this error when Snapshot view does not use MVFS? VonC The path is xmalviv_view/NBA_axess_aup2/refsys/aup/aup61 A snapshot view is only accessible through a full local host path: cd C:\path\to\snpashotview clearmake is generally linked

Can a ClearCase administrator or a project manager delete a project including all its streams, views, baselines, activities etc.? How? You cannot easily delete a project, unless all its streams are deleted You cannot easily delete a stream if there are versions created on a branch made from that streams (or if there are any views or any activities attached to that stream). You cannot easily activities unless you have deleted first every versions in it (or move them to another activity) and so on... Bottom line, ask for the owner of the project to obsolete it (and its streams): cleartool lock

We are using Clearcase UCM and have one Integration stream and each developer has a development stream. When I do a baseline compare, activities from the development stream are sometimes included. Is there any way to get a simple list of activities in the integration stream since a particular baseline? VonC Note: in the integration stream, you will mostly get deliver activities, ie activities recording the merges done during delivers from the development stream. So if you want activities from two baselines done on the integration Stream, a simple cleartool diffbl -nmerge -act bl1 bl2 should be

We have a ClearCase UCM project implementation that we access from Windows and Solaris stations. I have created several views on the same stream of the project from the CC project explorer in both Windows and Solaris. But when I go into the properties of the stream and look for views from CC project explorer in Windows, I don't see the views I created from Solaris and vice versa. But from CC project explorer in Windows, I can see views created from other Windows stations. Whats happening here? What is happening is the notion of regions : you would usually define one region per Os, precisely to
