Searched it and some said annotate is not available in rcleartool.

I have a web view so i have to use rcleartool instead of cleartool.

What are the alternatives to get the annotate result on a web view.

cleartool annotate is indeed documented as a cleartool command only.

There is no native alternative in CCRC and web views, but I suggests a commercial alternative in "Annotate (“blame”) in CCRC?".

  • can i create a dynamic view instead of web view for the remote VOB – Akshay jain Jul 16 '15 at 11:05
  • @akshayjain it depends on your version of CCRC: if 8.0.1+, dynamic views are supported. – VonC Jul 16 '15 at 11:06
  • 8.0.0.v20130308_1624 is the version of my rcleartool – Akshay jain Jul 16 '15 at 12:01
  • @akshayjain yes, ClearTeam 8.x supports dynamic views (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/23105722/clearcase-get-file-from-repository/23106205#23106205). But I don't think it supports annotate on said dynamic views. (unless the `cleartool` command is available, instead of only `rcleartool`) – VonC Jul 16 '15 at 12:05

  • @akshayjain do you have the native client installed, as mentioned in https://www-01.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSSH27_8.0.1/com.ibm.rational.clearcase.ccrc.help.doc/topics/t_use_dyn_views.htm? See also https://www-01.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSSH27_8.0.0/com.ibm.rational.clearcase.ccrc.help.doc/topics/t_ccteam_base_mkview.htm, about CleaCase node. – VonC Jul 16 '15 at 13:02

ClearCase has two different client environments, the ClearCase Local Client (CCLC - sometimes referred to as the "thick client") and the ClearCase Remote Client (CCRC). CCLC supports dynamic views and snapshot views and includes the 'cleartool' command. CCRC supports automatic views and Web views and includes the 'rcleartool' ("remote cleartool") command. About ClearCase views provides more details. You can install one or the other or both on the same machine.

As the name implies, CCLC must be on the same Local Area Network (LAN) as the ClearCase VOB servers. If you are not on the same LAN as the VOB servers, using a remote access solution (ssh, telnet, X, Remote Desktop, etc.) to another machine with CCLC on the same LAN as the VOB servers is an option.
