Configuration instructions (from the Project Explorer GUI):

  1. Open Project Explorer

  2. In the left pane of the ClearCase Project Explorer, right click your PVOB folder then select File > New > Project.

  3. The New Project Wizard appears. Complete the following steps in the Wizard.
    1. In the New Project Wizard Step 1:
      • Enter a name for the project in the Project box.
      • Enter a comment in the Description box to describe the purpose of the project.
      • Click Next to proceed to Step two.

    2. New Project Wizard Step two: In this step, you can create a project from scratch or create a project based on an existing project's baselines. Select Yes and select the existing project or select No and click Next.

    3. New Project Wizard Step three: In this step, you specify which baselines to include in the project, select your baseline and click Next.

    4. New Project Wizard Step four: Specify the components.
      By default, all components are read-only. To make a component modifiable, click its check box and click Next.

Configuration instructions (from a command prompt):


In the following example we are creating a new project and adding a modifiable component to it in a single command. You do not have to add any components if you do not wish too.
You must, however, specify the -in folder.
The default folder for the project vob is always RootFolder
If you have a folder other than default, you can specify the correct name (example: -in otherfolder@<project-vob-tag> )

Example:
M:\dev\cvob\comp1>cleartool mkproj -modcomp comp1@\pvob -in RootFolder new-proj@\pvob
Created project "new-proj".
Changed modifiable component list for project "new-proj".
