The rmtype command removes one or more type objects from a VOB.
The file vista.tjf records updates to the VOB that result from rmtype operations. vista.tjf can grow very large. For information on limiting its size, read about the file db.conf in theconfig_ccase reference page.
Identities: You must have one of the following identities:
Type owner
VOB owner
root (UNIX)
Member of the ClearCase group (ClearCase on Windows)
Local administrator of the ClearCase LT server host (ClearCase LT on Windows)
Locks: An error occurs if one or more of these objects are locked: VOB, type.
Mastership: (Replicated VOBs only) Your current replica must master the type.
Other: You cannot remove a type object if there are any instances of that type. For example, if any version of any element is labeled REL1, you cannot remove the REL1 label type. You can bypass this restriction by specifying the -rmall option.
You cannot remove an element type from a replicated VOB.
REMOVING INSTANCES OF THE TYPE. Default: If there are any instances of a specified type object, rmtype does not remove the type object.
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.
SPECIFYING THE TYPE OBJECTS TO BE REMOVED. Default: Removes types from the VOB that contains the current working directory unless you specify another VOB with the @vob-selector suffix.
type-kind | oOne of | |
type-name | Name of the type object | |
vob-selector | VOB specifier Specify vob-selector in the form [vob:]pname-in-vob | |
pname-in-vob | Pathname of the VOB-tag (whether or not the VOB is mounted) or of any file-system object within the VOB (if the VOB is mounted) |
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.
Delete the branch type patch3.
cmd-context rmtype brtype:patch3
Removed attribute type "patch3".
Delete the attribute type QA_date in the VOB \tests.
cmd-context rmtype attype:QA_date@\tests
Removed attribute type "QA_date".
Delete all branches of type expmnt3 (along with all the versions on those branches and any subbranches); then delete the expmnt3 branch type itself.
cmd-context rmtype -rmall brtype:expmnt3
There are 1 branches of type "expmnt3".
Remove branches (including all sub-branches and sub-versions)? [no] yes
Removed branches of type "expmnt3".
Removed branch type "expmnt3".
Delete the hyperlink type design_doc.
cmd-context rmtype hltype:design_doc
Removed hyperlink type "design_doc".
Remove all instances of the label type REL2; then delete the label type.
cmd-context rmtype -rmall lbtype:REL2
There are 7 labels of type "REL2".
Remove labels? [no] yes
Removed labels of type "REL2".
Removed label type "REL2".
Delete the trigger type trig1. Use the -ignore option to ensure that the command executes without interference from a previously defined trigger.
cmd-context rmtype -ignore trtype:trig1
Removed trigger type "trig1".
