Reference for properties that can be passed to -fm

问题:

The fmt_ccase documentation for cleartool gives this as a formatting option:

%[p]p
Property value: Displays the value of the property specified in square brackets. If multiple values are returned, they are separated by spaces.

However, the page doesn't list the possible values for [p] as far as I can tell, and I can't find any other reference to this anywhere in the ClearCase documentation.

I would like to use this to format output from lstype for scripting purposes, to print out properties of a type such as the supertype and type manager. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

---

Here is sample output for what I'm ultimately trying to do:

foo
superfoo
foo_mgr

where foo is the type, superfoo is the supertype of foo, and foo_mgr is the type manager for foo.

You will find all the properties in the fmt_ccase page.

Format strings for command output

-fmt option syntax (used in various reporting commands: annotate, describe, lshistory, lscheckout, and so on):

-fmt "format-string"

format-string is a character string, composed of alphanumeric characters, conversion specifications, and escape sequences. It must be enclosed in double quotes ( " ).

More precisely, the section:

%[p]p

Property value: Displays the value of the property specified in square brackets. If multiple values are returned, they are separated by spaces.

For instance:

Display the type of a file element.

cleartool describe -fmt "Type:  %[type]p\n"  util.c@@

Type: text_file

See an lstype example at "How to find all the branch type created by one person in ClearCase?".
