Default ClearcaseByBaselineActivity

Hi,

I have changed the default template of ClearcaseByBaselineActivity by mistake. Can somebody send me the default template?

Thanks

Hi Ankit,

Did you change the adaptor xml in the file system or just an adaptor that you created using the template type of ClearcaseByBaselineActivity? If the latter, then you could just act as if you're creating a new adaptor, set the template type to ClearcaseByBaselineActivity, and copy/paste/diff with your mistakenly modified adaptor.

I changed the default one.. :-(

Hi,

I am not sure if I have changed the default one... But, I have doubts about the one which I can see. I might not have changed.

Here are the couple of things which I have noticed in ClearcaseByBaselineActivity. There is a section in the BOM fields, something similar to this:

<section name="changes">
<field order="1" name="file" title="File/Dir Name"/>
<field order="2" name="version" title="Version"/>
<field order="3" name="date" title="Date"/>
<field order="4" name="user" title="User"/>
<field order="5" name="comment" title="Comment"/>
</section>

But, the section, "changes", is never used in the Adaptor. While doing lsact on activities, we get all the file change information, and that information should be used to populate this field.

The section in the Adaptor template,

<match pattern="^\s+(.*?)\@\@(.*?\d)$">
<bom category="Source" section="changeset">
<field name="version" text="$1@@$2"/>
</bom>
<!-- add the information to our email template -->
<setenv name="Changes" value="$1\@\@$2" type="temp append\n"/>
<!-- and then run cc_diff to log the differences associated with this changed object -->
<run command="cc_diff" params="$VIEW $1 $2" server="$CCSERVER" dir="/" timeout="360"/>
</match>

calls cc_diff. This command only does the diff and populates the diff field. Also, the "match pattern="^\s+(.*?)\@\@(.*?\d)$" " is never executed.

I do not know why it is failing, but there is something wrong with this template.

Your help would be highly appreciated.

Thanks

Hi,

Those sections do not appear to have been modified from the original adaptor at install time. It could be that the output from the CC command is slightly different (possibly different release from which the adaptor was originally created) and the regular expression is not picking up the new format. If you were to run that CC command on the command line and look at the output, that might give an indication if the regular expression will match on the text.

Yes, it is not picking up the regular expression. But, even if it picks up, there is no where in the adaptor which fills the BOM Fields like File/Dir changes. These fields are declared in the adaptor, but are never used. But, if you ClearcaseByDate adaptor, it does get the file changes since the last run of the build.
So, I had to manually change the ClearcaseByBaslineActivity to get the file changes.
