How to list branches associated with a view in clearcase

I have checked in some files in a branch but unfortunately I forgot the branch name but I remember my view name to which my branch is associated. I also checked my config spec but the branch which is written in the config spec is not the branch that I want.

Actually I created two branches in a view but one branch name I forgot and as I said in config spec also only one branch name is written. Is there any way where I can list all branches associated with a particular view?

Solution

  • No: only an UCM view has an associated branch (through its stream).
    See "How to obtain UCM stream and baseline with cleartool?" or "How to get ClearCase stream name by a given view path?"

    cleartool lsstream -fmt "%n" -cview

    A non-UCM view would have any selection rules you want in its config spec.
    You need to do a cleartool lsvtree /path/to/a/file (add --graph for the graphical view) in order to see its versions and the branches involved.
