This window displays the progress of the Update Tool as it updates elements in a view. The window appears for every update and preview operation, but closes if there are no hijacked files or errors.
Use this window to gauge the number of elements evaluated versus the number of elements already in the view. The window displays a message telling whether errors were encountered.
Click Cancel to stop the update. The update operation stops and the text of the Cancel button changes to Close. The Update View window displays the actions taken up to the point of cancellation.
After the update, the text of the Cancel button changes to Close. Click the button to close the window.
Details/No Details changes the display of the window to show either the Progress Meter only or the Progress Meter, update messages, and update statistics.
The indicator in the Progress Meter increases to show the number of elements that have been evaluated in contrast to the total number of elements in the view. The indicator is not meant to provide a reliable time estimate because it does not predict which elements need to be changed or loaded.
In the Details area, select Display results when closed to open the Update View window when you close this window. When you start a view update explicitly and when you change the config spec, the Update View window opens. To open this window for other update operations, select this option.
In the Details area, a message list displays nontrivial updates that may require further input from you. For example, this list includes any Rational® ClearCase® update errors.
Update statistics are displayed at the bottom of the Details area.
