DESCRIPTION
The lscheckout command lists the checkout records (the checkouts) for one or more elements. There are many controls for specifying the scope: which elements, directories, or VOBs; which user; which view; and so on.
OPTIONS AND ARGUMENTS
Report Format
- Default
- The listing of a checkout event record looks like this:
- –l·ong
- Expands the listing to include the
view to which the element is checked out.
- –s·hort
- Restricts the listing to the pathnames
of checked-out elements.
- –fmt format-string
- Lists information using the specified
format string. See the fmt_ccase reference
page for details about using this report-writing facility.
Selecting Checkout Records to List
- Default
- The listing includes all checkouts
for the specified elements, including checkouts made in any view by any user.
- –me
- Restricts the listing to your own checkouts.
- –use·r login-name
- Restricts the listing to checkouts
made by the specified user.
- –cvi·ew
- Restricts the listing to checkouts
made in the current view. On UNIX systems, if there is a working directory
view, lscheckout lists its checkouts; otherwise, it lists
the checkouts in the set view.
- –brt·ype branch-type-selector
- Restricts the listing to checkouts on branches of the specified type. Specify branch-type-selector in the form [brtype:]type-name[@vob-selector]
Specifying the Elements
- Default
- The listing includes all checkouts
for the specified elements, including checkouts made in any view by any user.
The current working directory (equivalent to specifying a dot ( . ) as the pname argument).
If you don't specify any options, lscheckout lists all
checkouts of elements in the current directory, to any view. If the current
directory is itself checked out, this is also indicated.
- pname ...
- One or more pathnames, specifying
file elements and/or versions of directory elements. (A Windows pathname or
a UNIX standard or view-extended pathname to a directory specifies the version
in the view.)
- For
each pname that specifies a file element, the listing
includes that element's checkout event records.
- For
each pname that specifies a version of a directory
element, the listing includes checkout event records of elements cataloged
in that directory version, but not checkout records for the pname directory
itself.
- For
each pname that specifies a file element, the listing
includes that element's checkout event records.
The following options modify the processing of the pname arguments.
- –r·ecurse
- Lists the checkouts of elements in
the entire subtree below any directory encountered in the current view. VOB
symbolic links are not traversed during the recursive descent.
- –d·irectory
- Lists the checkouts (if any) of a directory
itself, rather than the checkouts of elements cataloged in it.
- –a·ll
- Lists all the checkouts in the VOB
containing pname. If you don't specify any pname arguments,
lists all checkouts in the VOB that contains the current working directory.
Note: A file element can have several names, by virtue of one or more VOB hard links. Checking out such an element under one name causes all the names to be listed as checked out. However, the –all option lists the checked-out element only once.
- –are·plicas
- Lists checkouts of the element specified
by pname in all replicas of the VOB that contains pname.
If you don't specify any pname arguments, lists
all checkouts in all replicas of the VOB that contains the current working
directory.
The following option is mutually exclusive with pname arguments:
- –avo·bs
- Similar to –all,
but includes checkouts in all VOBs active (mounted) on the local host. (If
environment variable CLEARCASE_AVOBS is set
to a list of VOB-tags, this set of VOBs is used instead.) This option depends
on the MVFS, and so has no meaning for snapshot-view-only hosts.
Note: A view context is required when using this option.
EXAMPLES
The UNIX examples in this section are written for use in csh. If you use another shell, you may need to use different quoting and escaping conventions.
The Windows examples that include wildcards or quoting are written for use in cleartool interactive mode. If you use cleartool single-command mode, you may need to change the wildcards and quoting to make your command interpreter process the command appropriately.
In cleartool single-command mode, cmd-context represents the UNIX shell or Windows command interpreter prompt, followed by the cleartool command. In cleartool interactive mode, cmd-context represents the interactive cleartool prompt.
- List the checkouts in the current working directory.
- List only the names of elements checked out to the current view.
- List
the checkouts in all directories at or below the current directory.

are significant.)
