How to associate a clearcase view with stream or v

问题:

Below command is to make a view:
ct mkview -tag myview /var/tmp/your-username_dynview.vws

However, how do we know that [myview] is a view to certain stream ? There's no specified arguments on above command indicating which stream a view is for.

Please read this:

Is it because that above command is for base clearcase view, not for UCM view ? If so, how it is possible for a view to work with stream or vob in base clearcase ? I'm confused.

回答1:

You need to add the -stream parameter (following cleartool mkview man page).

ct mkview -tag myview -stream MyStream@/vobs:MyPVob /var/tmp/your-username_dynview.vws

See for instance "How do I create a snapshot view of some project or stream in ClearCase?".

-str/eam stream-selector

Specifies a UCM stream. The view being created is attached to this stream. (Cannot be used with –reg/ion.)

stream-selector is of the form [stream:]stream-name[@vob-selector], where vob-selector specifies the stream's project VOB.

So the -stream is the only difference between a base ClearCase view, and an UCM view.
