Finding modified files
Use ClearCase Search to find files that have been checked out, hijacked, or that have not been added to source control.
About this task
- Checked-out files and directories
- View-private files and directories (ones that have not been added to ClearCase source control)
- Hijacked files
When you run ClearCase Search from the ClearCase perspective, you can specify any of the following search scopes:
- A single folder in a ClearCase view.
- All folders in a single ClearCase view.
- All ClearCase views on this computer (automatic and web views)
- All ClearCase views (dynamic views and snapshot views that are connected to the LAN)
In an Eclipse environment, when you use the ClearCase Search tab of the Eclipse search dialog box, you can specify any of the following search scopes:
- The entire workspace.
- A specific working set in the workspace.
- Specific resources in the workspace.
ClearCase Search is useful when you want to display a list of all resources in one or more ClearCase views on which certain types of operations might be needed (a list of all files that need to be checked in, for example, or a list of view-private files and folders to be considered for adding to source control.)
