Delivering to a view
Use this window to gauge the progress of the deliver operation. Work from one stream is being delivered to another stream and versions are being merged through the integration view. A progress bar gives an indication of the quantity of work that is delivered and the quantity that remains to be delivered. Under the progress bar is the path or leaf name of the element that is currently being processed. Information about the operation is hidden until you click Details.
Details
To examine the results of the deliver operation, click Details. A list of the versions that the deliver operation accesses is displayed. Also shown are the merge status and the checked-out state, with an icon to the left of the element name to indicate related status.
To control how the element names are displayed, set one of the following options:
- Display full pathname
- Display only leaf name
Use this list to detect problems and fix them to successfully merge all versions that you are delivering. You can select and right-click an entry in the list and click a command to see more information in the element log about operations performed on the element. Also, you can run applicable DevOps Code ClearCase® tools, for example, the History Browser or Version Tree Browser.
User mergetype
If the operation finds an element with a mergetype of user, another window opens and offers options to handle the specified version of the element.
Options
Depending on the phase of the operation, you see the following options:
- Restart
Use this option if you chose to skip elements, merge files manually, and put the merged results in the latest target stream versions. When the operation resumes, for these versions, set the option Keep the version currently checked out on the target stream.
- Complete
Use this option to complete the deliver operation and to accept the changes.
You see this option after all merges are complete and you click OK. After you finish your testing, use this option to make permanent the changes that you delivered. Changes are not made permanent until you explicitly complete the deliver operation. New versions in the target stream are checked in, and other record-keeping is performed.
- Close
Use this option to suspend the deliver operation. When the operation is restarted, you are given the option to continue the delivery or cancel it and back out any changes that you made.
