Is there anyway to change textmode of clearcase view?

Question

I know when creating a clearcase view we can set the text mode to transparent,insert_cr or strip_cr.

I already created a view with text mode as transparent. Now I want to change the mode to insert_cr.

Is there anyway to change textmode of clearcase view?

Answer 1

The -tmode option is only available on the cleartool mkview command, not on the cleartool chview one.

So the easiest workaround remains to:

• save the config spec of the current view
• delete the view
• create a new view with the right text mode (see guideline) and the same name than before
