The mkfolder command creates a folder for a project. Folders have these characteristics:
They can contain projects or other folders.
They must reside in a project VOB.
Each folder must have a parent folder.
The parent folder for a top-level folder is named RootFolder, a predefined object.
Identities: No special identity required.
Locks: An error occurs if one or more of these objects are locked: the project VOB.
Mastership: (Replicated VOBs only) No mastership restrictions.
EVENT RECORDS AND COMMENTS. Default: Creates one or more event records, with commenting controlled by your .clearcase_profile file (default: -c). See the comments reference page. Comments can be edited with chevent.
SPECIFYING THE PARENT FOLDER. Default: None.
SPECIFYING THE FOLDER NAME. Default: A generated name.
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.
NOTE: In the UNIX examples that follow, arguments and output that show multicomponent VOB tags are not applicable to ClearCase LT, which recognizes only single-component VOB tags. In this manual, a multicomponent VOB tag is by convention a two-component VOB tag of the form /vobs/vob-tag-leaf-for example, /vobs/src. A single-component VOB tag consists of a leaf only-for example, /src. In all other respects, the examples are valid for ClearCase LT.
Create a top-level folder whose parent is the predefined object RootFolder.
cmd-context mkfolder -in \
RootFolder@/vobs/webo_pvob webo_projects@/vobs/webo_pvob
Created folder "webo_projects".
chfolder, lsfolder, mkproject, rmfolder
