Undo Check Out dialog box
Use to undo the checkout of a checked out element in your view. If you check out an element and decide that you do not want to change it after all, undo the checkout. ClearCase® does not create a new version, but optionally discards any changes you made to the element, and does not add any checkout events to its history. In sum, ClearCase® erases the whole transaction.
Note: Undoing a checkout means that any changes made to the file
while it was checked out are lost.
The Undo Check Out dialog box has the following controls:
- Selected Elements
- Lists the scripts, files, object maps, class files, or projects that you
select from the Projects view.
- Undo Check Out
- Select to undo the checkout of a script. Clear the check box if you do not want to undo the checkout of a script. If unavailable, a gray box appears instead of a check box, and you cannot undo the checkout of this element.
- File, Script, Element, or Project Name
- Displays the name of the element, project, script, or file name selected. If a script is in a folder, the folder appears as <foldername>.<filename>. For example, Myfolder.myfile.
- Functional Test Project
- Displays the name of the project.
- Details for <selected element>
- Lists the state, filename, and path for each supporting file of an element or the selected
element under Selected Elements. Rational® Functional Tester does not display the
script details unless there is a problem checking in the files. If the script details are not
visible, optionally, set the Functional Test ClearCase
Preferences to display script details.
