ClearCase® Dialog Boxes

The ClearTeam® Explorer uses dialog boxes to provide access to ClearCase® operations.

The ClearTeam® Explorer provides a number of dialog boxes that are accessible from the ClearCase® toolbar as well as from most context menus in the ClearCase® perspective. In the Eclipse environment, ClearCase® dialog boxes are also accessible from the Team context menu.

Background execution

Some ClearTeam® Explorer dialog boxes present a Run in Background option in the progress dialog box that appears after you click Apply. If you choose to run an operation in the background, it runs at a lower priority and does not prevent you from initiating other tasks while it runs. You may want to consider clicking Run in Background after starting a long-running operation (for example, a view update where many resources are involved). To obtain detailed information about the status of a background operation, click the Details button.
