Searching files in source control


Eike Meyer (612211) | asked May 06 '11, 4:07 a.m.
Hi,

is it possible to search for specific files in RTC through the web access? What I'm looking for is something similar to the windows search for files functionality.
I know that I can work around that by using the client, creating a repository workspace and then go through that file structure with the windows search, but in our project we need something like this specifically for web.

Kind regards
Eike

Hi Eike,

Which version are you running? In RTC 3 there is an advanced search available in the SCM section of the Web UI.

In 3.0.1, there is an Advanced_Search tab in the Source_Control page,
which gives you many/most of the search options that you have in the
Eclipse client. I believe that was added in 3.0, but possibly earlier.
In there, you can specify things like:
- workspace/stream to search in
- filename prefix
- component name
- creator name
- date created (before/after)
- whether file was added/changed/removed.

Cheers,
Geoff
