How to get ClearCase stream name by a given view path?

Question

Let's say I'm inside a view on Linux (snapshot or dynamic). I forgot what's the stream that that view belongs to.

How do I get it? Should I extract if from the config-spec (after -mkbranch) or is there any better way?

You can take advantage of the -cview option of the lsstream command:

cleartool lsstream -cview

With fmt_ccase:

cleartool lsstream -fmt "%n" -cview

I like to see where this stream is located within a project, so I usually do a:

cleartool lsstream -cview -anc
