Limit Labels in History View

2014-06-10T20:58:20.527000Z

In projects with a large number of labels applied to elements, retrieval of an element history (lshistory -long) often proves to be slow. Cleartool provides the -fmt option which allows the number of labels returned to be limited.

Please consider the attached patch which makes use of the -fmt option to limit the number of labels to 5 (perhaps the actual number could be a parameter via options). The patch also includes modified history parsing logic to handle the formatted response from -fmt and includes changes to the ElementHistory object to add setters.

CommandLauncher does not print spaces between arguments (including patch)

2013-05-14T11:40:15.532000Z

Currently the CommandLauncher does not print any spaces between arguments in the console.
Which results in: command:mycommandmyfirstparammysecondparam

The attached change will fix this, and results in the following printed to console:
command:mycommand myfirstparam mysecondparam

Add function returning "cleartool annotate"

2012-05-28T15:29:46Z

By providing a function that return the result from cleartool annotate, it is poosible to add annotate ouTput in eclipse-ccase plugin.

Extended listAllVersionsOfElement

2012-05-28T15:26:13Z

It would be good to have a functions that returns a tree of versions with merge arrow information included.

That function could be used to:
* display an extra column in the eclipse-ccase HistoryView showing incoming merge arrows,
* display a more user friendly version tree (integrated into eclipse e.g.)

New features to add to ClearCase API

2008-11-14T19:45:27Z

- To allow a comparison between the filesystem file and a version on the server (compare with..., compare with predecessor), a method with the following signature should be added (to be discussed) :
public String getElement(String element) where the returned string is the path to the downloaded element.

[To be completed]

Build system migration to Maven

2008-11-14T19:35:05Z

Split the project in two artifacts :
- net.sourceforge.clearcase:clearcase-java (containing the current source code which is in src/common)
- net.sourceforge.clearcase:clearcase-java-cli-impl (current source in src/commandline and src/test)

This should hopefully simplify the releasing process of the project.

Java 5 compliance of the API

2008-11-14T19:27:20Z

I suggest to migrate the existing code to Java 5 compliance (enums, generics) to improve readability and efficiency of the code. This will break backward compatibility. As such, this is proposed for 3.0 branch

Mock implementation for testing purposes

2008-11-14T19:23:45Z

I propose to implement a mock implementation of the ClearCaseInterface. This would help testing the Eclipse part of the project on a workstation with no access to ClearCase.
