Using dynamic views in ClearCase

[Rodrigo Mendes]

Hi,

To configure Codestriker to be used with ClearCase, it's needed to identify the viewname and vob, in my case, using a Dynamic View.

This is the part of the manual that shows how to do it.

" # The next example is a repository based off a ClearCase dynamic view.
  # The clearcase identifier is followed by the dyn indicator,
  # followed by the view name, followed by the location where the
  # view is loaded.
  # 'clearcase:dyn:viewname:/vobs' "

Since everytime we create a solution branch based on a specific view, we do have a different viewname.

My question is: If we have different views , do we have to change the codestriker configuration file with the "new viewname" and run the install again ? Does it only work for one solution branch (view) each time ?

Thanks in advance.

That is my understanding, yes.  If you are using Codestriker in a CGI environment, then you can modify the codestriker.conf file without restarting apache or running install.pl.  If you are under mod_perl, then after modifying codestriker.conf, you will need to restart your web-server.
