Create workspace from stream at specific snapshot

0
Anders Nysom (21●3●4) | asked Sep 16 '11, 7:11 a.m.
Hi everyone

I need to create a workspace from a a stream at a specific snapshot. In the project im working on we have multiple streams and it is possible for more than one stream to have baselines with the same name.

Im using the Team Concert SCM tool, and according to the SCM help, you can specify either a stream or a snapshot when creating a workspace. Not both..

So how can i accomplish this, or alternatively, how can i determine if a created workspace is from a specific stream?

I hope you can help me out

Some alternatives:

- Find out the UUID of the snapshot, and use that instead of the name.
- Rename one of the snapshots, so the name is no longer ambiguous.
- Use the GUI to create a workspace, because it can handle multiple
snapshots with the same name.

Cheers,
Geoff

However it doesn't quite fix my problem. If I have two streams, both
with a snapshot called "build 3" for instance, I wont be
able to create a workspace from snapshot, since there are too many
matches to the SCM command.

Executing a command like:
scm create workspace -r connection --snapshot "build 3"
myNewWS

would give the error:
The requested operation could not be completed because a selector
(name, alias, or UUID) supplied by the user either does not match
enough items, or matches too many.

You would first create your workspace from the desired snapshot, and
then you would use the change-target command to associate that workspace
with the desired stream.
