Synopsis
Description
The rmattr command removes one or more attributes from VOB-database objects. Attributes can be attached to objects by the mkattr command and by triggers (mktrtype –mkattr). See the mkattr reference page for a list of objects to which attributes can be attached.
rmattr deletes an instance of an attribute type object. To delete the attribute type object itself or to delete the type object and all its instances, use the rmtype command.
Options and arguments
Event records and comments
- Default
- Creates one or more event records, with commenting controlled by your .clearcase_profile file (default: –nc). See the comments reference page. Comments can be edited with chevent.
- –c/omment comment | –cfi/le comment-file-pname |–cq/uery | –cqe/ach | –nc/omment
- Overrides the default with the option you specify. See the comments reference page.
Specifying the attribute to be removed
- Default
- None.
- attribute-type-selector
- An existing attribute type. Specify attribute-type-selector in
the form [attype:]type-name[@vob-selector]
type-name
Name of the attribute type
vob-selector
Object-selector for a VOB, in the form [vob:]pname-in-vob. The pname-in-vob can be the pathname of the VOB tag (whether or not the VOB is mounted) or of any file system object within the VOB (if the VOB is mounted).
Specifying an object
- Default
- None.
- pname ...
- One or more pathnames, indicating file system objects from which
attributes are to be removed. If you do not use the –version option:
- A standard or view-extended pathname to an element specifies the version in the view.
- A VOB-extended pathname specifies an element, branch, or version—independent of view.
See the mkattr reference page for examples of pname arguments.
- –pna/me
- Indicates that pname is a pathname. You must use this option if pname has the form of an object selector.
- –r/ecurse
- Processes the entire subtree of each pname that is a directory element (including pname itself). VOB symbolic links are not traversed during the recursive descent into the subtree.
- –ver/sion version-selector
- Specifies the version from which the attribute is to be removed. See the version_selector reference page for syntax details.
- object-selector ...
- One or more names of non-file-system objects from which attributes
are to be removed. Specify object-selector in one
of the following forms:
vob-selector
vob:pname-in-vob
pname-in-vob can be the pathname of the VOB tag (whether or not the VOB is mounted) or of any file system object within the VOB (if the VOB is mounted). It cannot be the pathname of the VOB storage directory.

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.
- Remove the Confidence_Level attribute
from the version of msg.c in the view.
cmd-context rmattr Confidence_Level msg.c
Removed attribute "Confidence_Level" from "msg.c@@/main/1". - On a UNIX or Linux system, remove the attribute TESTED
from the most recent version of hello.h on the main branch that has
the attribute value "FALSE".
cmd-context rmattr –version '\main\{TESTED=="FALSE"}' TESTED hello.h
Removed attribute "TESTED" from "hello.h@@/main/2". - Remove the Responsible attribute
from the main branch of hello.c.
cmd-context rmattr Responsible hello.c@@/main
Removed attribute "Responsible" from "hello.c@@/main". - Remove the Author attribute
from a hyperlink of type DesignDoc.
cmd-context rmattr Author hlink:DesignDoc@393@\users_hw
Removed attribute "Author" from "DesignDoc@393@\users_hw".
