How to list ClearCase activities in certain streams?

Question

I\'m wondering if there is a way to specify which streams to get a list of activitis for in one command line call?

Right now I\'m building a list of activities based

Doesn't it always seem you can never quite get ClearCase to tell you what you want to know in the form you want?

An alternative may be to use the -fmt option

ct lsact -fmt "%[stream]Xp %n\n" -inv /vobs/my_pvob

You can then pipe through grep (-v) or other filter tool to exclude/get the projects of interest. Since it's not possible to list activities only for active streams, the alternative would be to also lock your activities when you lock the project/stream, then obsolete activities would be excluded (use -obsolete to list all activities).

Or, building on VonC suggestion, process the active streams (no -obs switch) - without the need to store the list (unix):

for stream in $(ct lsstream "%Xn" -inv /vobs/my_pvob); do
   echo ::: ${stream}
   ct lsact -in ${stream}
done
