How can I obtain the list of changed files, given that I have an activity name (and also a project and stream name)?
This is what I tried:
cleartool lsact -l someActivity
But it returns:
cleartool: Error: Unable to determine VOB for pathname ".".
I suppose I should be in the correct view in order to get the contents. Is it also possible to retrieve all content without being in a view?
I obtained someActivity with an cleartool lsproj, then an cleartool lsstream -s -in someProject and then cleartool lsact -in someStream. I can do all these cleartool invocations without being in a view, so I'd like to obtain the changeset.
I'm found this question but the answer only works when in a view. For the record, I'm not confusing the ID with the headline.
You would at least need to add the pvob in which that activity was created:
cleartool lsact -l someActivity@/vobs/aPVob # Unix
cleartool lsact -l someActivity@\aPVob # Windows
cleartool lsact can use the current view if you don't specify any pvob:
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.
lsact would also need a view if you want ClearCase to resolve the path of each version (resolved using the current view path).
Otherwise it would list extended pathnames for each version.
