Possible for command line scm tool to create a snapshot?

0
Chris Melikian (66●7●2) | asked Dec 17 '08, 6:37 a.m.
As the subject says really. The command line scm tool can create a baseline but I can't seem to be able to create a snapshot from it. A baseline isn't really good enough as I can't create a new workspace from the baseline. I realise I can add the component from the stream then replace the component with a version from another baseline but it would be nice to have the snapshot capability.

Cheers, Chris.

Our build process generates files we want included in the build results (snapshot and changes).

Is this still true in 2.0 (not able to create a snapshot using CLI)?

If not possible, are there plans to provide it?

If not possible with CLI, can we do this with the java or rest API?

There is "scm create snapshot". I believe this was introduced in 2.0 or
2.0.0.1. I have not double checked to confirm but I have it in latest in
the very least.

Any idea about how to use it?
I am checking the help:
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/rtc/v2r0m0/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.team.scm.doc/topics/r_scm_cli_create.html

and all combinations of the command line I use fail.
For example, "scm create snapshot -r MyURL -u MyUser -P MyPassword
MyNameForSnapshot fails. Adding -s fails. Adding stream ID before the
name, fails...

Any sample?

Thanks,

Chemi.

scm help create snapshot


to get more info
Thanks John :)

After some hours fighting with the command, thanks to Christophe and
John help I discovered the docs about SCM CLI are really broken... :-(

Forget this URL:
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/rtc/v2r0m0/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.team.scm.doc/topics/r_scm_cli_create.html

And use following command instead: scm help create snapshot

Hope this earns time to others,

Chemi.

Quote! The on-line help at that URL is really buggy... :evil:
For example: 
scm create baseline [options] [components] <baseline>

instead of: 
scm create baseline [options] <workspace> <baseline> [components]

:roll:
So, always use: 
scm help
