SYNOPSIS

chstream [ -c·omment comment | -cfi·le pname | -cq·uery | -cqe·ach | -nc·omment ]

[ -title title ] stream-selector ...

DESCRIPTION

The chstream command allows you to assign a new title to a stream. The stream's UUID (universal unique identifier) is not changed. See rename for related information.

RESTRICTIONS

Identities: No special identity required.

Locks: An error occurs if there are locks on the following objects: the UCM project VOB, the stream.

Mastership: The current replica must master the stream.

OPTIONS AND ARGUMENTS

EVENT RECORDS AND COMMENTS. Default: Creates one or more event records, with commenting controlled by your .clearcase_profile file (default: -nc). See the comments reference page. Comments can be edited with chevent.

-c·omment comment | -cfi·le comment-file-pname |-cq·uery | -cqe·ach | -nc·omment

Overrides the default with the option you specify. See the comments reference page.

SPECIFYING A NEW STREAM TITLE Default: None.

-title title

Specifies the new title for the stream. The title argument can be a character string of any length. Enclose a title with special characters in double quotes.

SPECIFYING THE STREAM. Default: None.

stream-selector ...

Specifies one or more streams to be modified.
You can specify the stream as a simple name or as an object selector of the form [stream]:name@vob-selector, where vob-selector specifies a project VOB (see the cleartool reference page). If you specify a simple name and the current directory is not a project VOB, then this command assumes the stream resides in the project VOB associated with the current view. If the current directory is a project VOB, then that project VOB is the context for identifying the stream.

EXAMPLES

The UNIX examples in this section are written for use in csh. If you use another shell, you may need to use different quoting and escaping conventions.

The Windows examples that include wildcards or quoting are written for use in cleartool interactive mode. If you use cleartool single-command mode, you may need to change the wildcards and quoting to make your command interpreter process the command appropriately.

In cleartool single-command mode, cmd-context represents the UNIX shell or Windows command interpreter prompt, followed by the cleartool command. In cleartool interactive mode, cmd-context represents the interactive cleartool prompt. In Attache, cmd-context represents the workspace prompt.
