Advanced Options

Using PowerBuilder, you can open the Rational Rational® ClearCase® Options window. Select a PowerBuilder object or target in the Library painter and click Entry > Source Control > Advanced Options.

The Advanced Options window contains the following options:

Search for new project files
Causes an automatic search for any new PowerBuilder Development Project files. This option is clear by default.
Enable the Get Latest Version command on the Source Control menu
Toggles the display of the Get Latest Version option in the Entry > Source Control menu.
Reserved
Prevents users from checking out the same element from the same branch at the same time. By default, this option is set.
Unreserved
If already reserved, allows an unreserved check out to be performed when you attempt to check out an element that is already checked out as reserved. By default, this option is clear.
Preserve file modified time on checkout
Allows you to specify Rational ClearCase behavior when checking out objects. When this option is set, the time stamp of an element is not modified when you check out. The time stamp continues to reflect the time that the element was last saved. By default, this option is clear.
Checkin even if identical
Allows you to override the default Rational ClearCase behavior which specifies that an element cannot be checked in if it is identical to the previous version of that element. By default, this option is clear.
Query for comment on each file
Allows you to specify a unique comment for every object you are checking in. The text that you enter in the Comments field is applied to all objects checked in during this operation. By default, this option is clear.
Save a copy of file with a .keep extension
Specifies Rational ClearCase behavior when you perform an Undo Checkout operation. When this option is set, a copy is saved of each file element that was involved in the Undo Checkout operation and a .keep extension is appended to each file name. When this option is not set, the files that were involved in the undo checkout operation are deleted and any edits that you may made to those files are lost. By default, this option is set.
Always prompt for an activity when working in a view of a ClearCase project
Specifies Rational ClearCase behavior when using Rational ClearCase UCM and performing a checkin or checkout operation. When this option is set, you are prompted to select an activity after you click OK in the Check In dialog box or the Check Out dialog box. When this option is not set, the operation is associated with the current activity.
Version Libraries
Enables you to perform PBL versioning in Rational ClearCase. By default, this option is set.
