This patch contains the following software changes:


PI57999:

   Problem: ClearCase Windows may crash when accessing dynamic views created with -host, -gpath and -hpath options on non-NAS environment

   Fix: ClearCase was changed to avoid -host, -gpath and -hpath to be used on a non-NAS environment.


PI59858:

   Problem: For base ClearCase VOBs using the CMI integration, findmerge -avobs fails when two or more VOBs have elements that require merging.

   Fix: The findmerge -avobs command should work properly for multiple VOBs using the CMI integration.


PI63237:

   Problem: ClearCase reop triggers do not block the request for mastership in synchronous request for mastership checkouts and mkelems.

   Fix: Preop triggers on reqmaster will now fire during synchronous request for mastership checkouts and mkelems, and will allow the User to block requests for mastership during those operations.


PI63928:

   Problem: When using Visual Studio with projects in an ClearCase automatic view, accessed using a subst'd path in the same way one would with dynamic views, Visual Studio does not recognize the artifacts in the project as being under source control.

   Fix: The integration has been enhanced to work with subst'd automatic view roots.  The subst must be of the form: X:\ -> R:\view_tag\


PI66371:

   Problem: Customers may experience a crash on Microsoft Windows when accessing ClearCase views created with -host, -gpath and -hpath options on non-NAS environment.

   Fix: ClearCase was changed to avoid -host, -gpath and -hpath to be used to specify local, non-NAS view storage.


PI78348:

   Problem: In ClearTeam Explorer, the graphical version tree would not display the view-selected version correctly if the element name contained @@ (version-extended characters) in the middle of the name.

   Fix: ClearTeam Explorer is fixed to display the view-selected version correctly when an element name contains @@ (version-extended characters) in the middle of the name.
Note that using the version-extended characters at the end of an element name is not supported in ClearCase.


PI82633:

   Problem: The scroll bar in missing in ClearCase ClearTeam Explorer (CTE) version tree for some versions of elements that have a large number of labels.

   Fix: The missing scrollbar issue has been fixed.


PI85509:

   Problem: When using the ClearTeam Explorer extension with Rational Application developer the 'Last Modified' and 'Created' fields in the details view will not have valid data.

   Fix: The fields now display correct data.


PI85853:

   Problem: When opening a solution that is under Source Control from Windows Explorer or ClearCase Explorer an error is shown saying "The source control provider associated with this solution could not be found. The projects will be treated as not under source control. Do you want to permanently remove the source control bindings from this project?"

   Fix: This issue has been fixed.


PI86344:

   Problem: ClearCase users with certain special characters in their password such as: an UMLAUT cannot successfully create an automatic view owing to rview agent failing to log into the server.		

   Fix: The rview agent now is capable of properly logging into cmserver using the user's credentials even if they have the afore mentioned special characters.


PI88572:

   Problem: Customer may be seeing the root  ClearCase MVFS(Multi Version File System ) path with a  double backslash("\\"") at the end of the path when using net use command.

   Fix: ClearCase Network Provider was changed to avoid this behavior.


PI88855:

   Problem: When using ClearCase clients on to access a VOB hosted on a different operating system type (one side is Windows, the other is UNIX/Linux), identities for VOB objects may show up with the server's identities instead of being mapped to the client's identities.

   Fix: The ClearCase client has been fixed to properly map VOB object identities to the local operating system's identities.
