At my new company, the CMS is ClearCase. I’ve worked with Perforce before and it had a nice built-in notification mechanism for the team to keep up-to-date with files that changed in the project. I’m trying to have something equivalent in ClearCase. I would like to know if someone have achieved this before.

Basically, there is three requirements :

  • Have a way to subscribe to a project. One receives only notification on projects it has subscribed to.
  • When someone deliver an activity, all the subscribers of the impacted project
    receive an email notification about that activity.
  • The email contain the list of the files affected by this activity. Each modified file has a link that perform a diff that shows what this activity change in this file.

So is someone is aware of a module/extension or any other existing way to put that in place or do I have to do all this manually with trigger and perl scripts ?

Thanks,

Martin

    we wanted the same here, so we are using a trigger called ucm_complete_delivery.pl that can be found on CM Crossroads.

    You need to apply this trigger to your PVOB (as it’s a UCM trigger).

    Once you have applied it, you need to define the following Custom Attributes on your UCM component(s):

    auto_baseline_email user_1@mydomain.com,user_2@mydomain.com,etc...

    It’s a bit painful as the mailing list as to be maintained by hand (or you need to use group mail address), but it’s better than nothing. 🙂

    Cheers,
