Question & Answer
Question
How can I view the contributing activities included in a baseline or an integration activity from the graphical user interface or command line when using IBM® Rational® ClearCase® UCM?
Answer
BASELINES
Baselines are used to mark a set of versions as a stable configuration or a bench mark, and can span multiple components in a project.
For more information on Baselines and their uses, see IBM Rational ClearCase Managing Software Projects.
You can view the contributing activities in a baseline from GUI or CLI as follows:
GUI - ClearCase Component Tree Browser
- From Project Explorer, right-click a component and select Browse Baselines:
- Right-click the baseline and select Properties > Activites tab:
CLI - cleartool describe
Command syntax:
cleartool describe baseline:<baseline>@\PVOB
Example:
C:\>cleartool des baseline:proj1_new_baseline@\pvob1
baseline "proj1_new_baseline"

INTEGRATION ACTIVITY
Integration activities track work completed as a result of a deliver or rebase operation, and they are named accordingly with a prefix of either deliver or rebase to help distinguish them from user created activities.
For more information About activities, see IBM Rational ClearCase Developing Software.
You can view the contributing activities in an integration activity from GUI or CLI as follows:
GUI - ClearCase Project Explorer
Note: The screen capture is from Microsoft® Windows®, but this feature is available on UNIX® and Linux® also.
- Start Project Explorer, select a stream in the left-hand pane, and the integration activities will appear in the right-hand pane:
Note: Integration activities only exist in a stream as the result of a deliver or rebase operation.
- Right-click the activity and select Show Contributing Activities:
CLI - cleartool lsactivity -contrib
Command Syntax:
cleartool lsactivity -contrib <deliver baseline>@\pvob
Note: You can list the intergration activities in a stream using cleartool describe stream:<stream>@\PVOB.
Example:
>cleartool lsactivity -contrib deliver.admin_proj1_dev2.20060717.213815@\pvob1
new_file
Note: The following command provides information that closely matches the GUI results above:
cleartool lsact -fmt "%[contrib_acts]p" deliver.admin_proj1_dev2.20060717.213815@\pvob1
For more information on cleartool lsactivity, see IBM Rational ClearCase Command Reference, or run cleartool man lsactivity.
