PM94326: 'Undo Hijack' fails to undo file changes using SCM Adapter 7.6.x.

Fixes are available

APAR status

Closed as program error.

Error description

The 'Undo Hijack' option when called from the IBM Rational
ClearCase SCM Adapter 7.6.x in a snapshot view does not work
correctly. When invoked, the content of the file remains the
same in both IBM Rational Application Developer (RAD) and
Eclipse, even though the Explorer view updates the icon for the
element, disables the action 'Undo Hijacked' and enables
'Hijack' in the Team menu.
Also the file is still marked as hijacked when looking at it in
the IBM Rational ClearTeam Explorer (CTE), ClearCase Explorer
and the command line.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Access ClearCase resources in a snapshot view using the SCM
Adapter 7.6 integrated into an Eclipse shell
2. Hijack a file from Eclipse and make a change
3. Select 'Undo Hijack' Team option on that file and note the
Hijack icon goes away
4. Open the file and note the changes have not reverted to the
version committed to the VOB.
WORKAROUND:
Perform the undo hijack using ClearCase Explorer or command
line. You can also perform an update of the element from the
Eclipse integration, where the hijack will be found and you will
be prompted to resolve it.
