Modify an activity's headline
Specifying the activity
- Default
- None.
- activity-selector ...
- Specifies one or more activities to modify.
You can specify an activity as a simple name or as an object selector of the form [activity]:name@vob-selector, where vob-selector specifies a project VOB (see the cleartool reference page). If you specify a simple name and the current directory is not a project VOB, this command assumes that the activity resides in the project VOB associated with the stream attached to the current view. If the current directory is a project VOB, that project VOB is the context for identifying the activity.
Specifying the source and destination activities
- Default
- None.
- –fcs/et src-activity-selector
- Specifies the activity from which to move versions.
You can specify an activity as a simple name or as an object selector of the form [activity]:name@vob-selector, where vob-selector specifies a project VOB (see the cleartool reference page). If you specify a simple name and the current directory is not a project VOB, this command assumes that the activity resides in the project VOB associated with the stream attached to the current view. If the current directory is a project VOB, that project VOB is the context for identifying the activity.
- –tcs/et dest-activity-selector
- Specifies the activity to move versions to. These versions are
recorded in the activity's change set.
You can specify an activity as a simple name or as an object selector of the form [activity]:name@vob-selector, where vob-selector specifies a project VOB (see the cleartool reference page). If you specify a simple name and the current directory is not a project VOB, this command assumes that the activity resides in the project VOB associated with the stream attached to the current view. If the current directory is a project VOB, that project VOB is the context for identifying the activity.
- version-pname[,...]
- One or more version-extended path names that specify the versions to be moved to another change set.
Transitioning an activity linked to ClearQuest
- Default
- None.
- –vie/w view-tag
- Transitions an activity in the specified view.
- –cqact/ion { –cac/t | activity-selector ... }
- In a single-stream project, checks in the versions in the change set of an activity and closes
the activity if the relevant ClearQuest policies
have been set. The operation will fail if your project is not enabled for ClearQuest, is not a single-stream project and your stream
is not in an integration stream of a multiple-stream project. If none of the relevant ClearQuest policies have been set, specifying the option
just checks in versions in the change set. The –cqaction option makes it possible
for a single-stream project to close an activity without having to deliver it.
Use –cact to specify the current activity or activity-selector ... to specify a selected list of activities.
Managing CMI-provided tasks
- Default
- None.
- –tasks
- Specifies that CMI tasks are to be managed.
- –add_task task-selector
- Specifies that tasks are to be added to the activity. task-selector is of the form task@provider-name.
- –remove_task task-selector
- Specifies that tasks are to be removed from the activity. task-selector is of the form task@provider-name.
- –rmall
- Specifies that all tasks are to be removed from the activity.
Examples
The UNIX system and Linux examples in this section are written for use in csh. If you use another shell, you might need to use different quoting and escaping conventions.
The Windows examples that include wildcards or quoting are written for use in cleartool interactive mode. If you use cleartool single-command mode, you might need to change the wildcards and quoting to make your command interpreter process the command appropriately.
In cleartool single-command mode, cmd-context represents the UNIX system and Linux shells or Windows command interpreter prompt, followed by the cleartool command. In cleartool interactive mode, cmd-context represents the interactive cleartool prompt.
