Check in resources to commit your modifications to the repository
(VOB).
Before you begin
You must connect to a Rational ClearCase server to check in a resource.
About this task
To check in one or more resources:
- Select the resources that you want to check in. Use
the ClearCase Navigator, ClearCase Details view, ClearCase Search Results
view, or the ClearCase Version Tree view. If you are working in the Eclipse
environment, use any Eclipse view that supports the Team context
menu.
- To open the Check in dialog
box, click the
icon on the ClearCase toolbar, or take
either of the following actions:- Select Check In from the context menu in the
ClearCase Navigator.
- In the Eclipse environment, select Check In from
the Team context menu.
- In the ClearCase Version Tree view, right-click the version decorated
with a checked-out icon and select Check In.
- Specify checkin options in the Check in dialog box and then click Apply. If a more recent version of a selected resource is checked in, you must
resolve any conflicts between your version and that version before the checkin
can proceed. This typically happens only if you are checking in a resource
that was checked out unreserved. If the differences do not conflict, the versions
can be merged. If there are conflicting changes, you must perform a manual
merge using ClearCase merge tools. For more information, see Using tools to compare and merge files and directories.
- If there are any Rational ClearCase triggers associated
with this operation, you may be prompted to supply additional information
or take further action.
Results
After they have been checked in, resources become read-only. If
resource decorations have been enabled, checked-in resources are decorated
with the
icon.
