From every branch and node.
Not only in branch of current view.
I have tried using "cleartool rmlabel -rec YOUR_LABEL yourDirectory" . but it removes only current view of version.
You can try instead to remove the entire label type:
cleartool rmtype -rmall yourlabel#\avob
But be careful, that would remove all instances of that label anywhere in that repo.
See another example of rmtype with "How to delete a clearcase branch with a single command?" using find and cleartool rmlabel.
Since you don't want to remove the label in the all vob, only in a given folder, you need to apply a slower solution, searching files with that label in your folder and subfolders:
cd /path/to/your/folder
cleartool find . -version "{lbtype(LABEL)}" -print
If the above line do print version for files in your folder and your subfolder, then try:
cd /path/to/your/folder
cleartool find . -version "{lbtype(LABEL)}" -exec "cleartool rmlabel YOUR_LABEL \"%CLEARCASE_XPN%\""

I assume there's no built in solution.
I'm using cleartool descr -fmt "%l\n" path to find labels for a particular directory, but it doesn't include subfolders.
Is there any way to find labels for a folder and all of it's childs?
You would need to find all the versions you want (the version of the folder selected by your config spec, as well as the version of the files and subfolders)
That would be with cleartool find.
You can combine cleartool describe and find with the -exec directive and is fmt_ccase syntax:
cleartool find . -exec "cleartool describe -fmt \"%n %l\n\" \"%CLEARCASE_PN%\""
I am new to cleartool.
I did some changes in .cs files from main latest.
I have to copy those changes in particular branch.
I have tried this command
cleartool find . -all -nvisible -name "*" -version "{created_by(mayur_shingote) && created_since(01-Sep-2017)}" -print
Is there a command in Cleartool which i can use to list all files which have been removed from a branch?
Thanks
The basic command to find anything in ClearCase is... cleartool find, also illustrated in "ClearCase UCM: Need to See Content of Deleted File".
In your case, you would search for versions of files which aren't at the LATEST of a branch:
cleartool find . -type f -version "! version(.../BRANCH/LATEST)" -print
(see version selector for more on this '.../' notation)
To display only the file (and not all the versions):
cleartool find . -type f -element "! version(.../BRANCH/LATEST)" -print
The OP linuxlewis mentions in the comments:
this will show all differences which exist between sibling branches. I just want to be able see the file names,if any were removed,from the current branch
I mention the possibility of a grep for BRANCH, to detect files which have versions in BRANCH but not LATEST)
However, a cleaner solution is to add another filter to the search: && version(.../BRANCH)
cleartool find . -type f -element "! version(.../BRANCH/LATEST) && version(.../BRANCH)" -print
That will search all "elements" (files or directories in ClearCase) which have versions in branch BRANCH, but not one in BRANCH/LATEST.
I could not find the proper command to apply a label to files which are in my current view. I have tried the following command:
cleartool mklabel -r TEST_LABEL /vob/test/a
However, the problem is that this command will apply the "Test_Label" label to every files in the "vob/test/a" directories regardless of whether the files are in my current view.
Is there any command to apply label only to the files listed in my current view?
cleartool mklabel -r(ecurse) LABEL_NAME <directory name>
This command will apply LABEL_NAME to all files in folder and below of your view, you can just go to that directory,then type following command to create and apply label
> cd /vob/test/a
> cleartool mklbtype –nc TEST_LABEL
> cleartool mklabel -r TEST_LABEL .
The mklabel documentation state states, as to what version is labeled:
Processes the entire subtree of each pname that is a directory element (including pname itself). VOB symbolic links are not traversed during the recursive descent into the subtree.
One example mentions:
Attach that label to the version of the current directory selected by your view, and to the currently selected version of each element in and below the current directory.
Now, if you want to be really sure of the versions actually labelled, one solution is to use a find command, combined with your mklabel:
cleartool find . -cview -exec "cleartool mklabel TEST_LABEL \"%CLEARCASE_XPN%\""
If you had already that label applied to incorrect version and want to move it:
cleartool find . -cview -exec "cleartool mklabel -replace TEST_LABEL \"%CLEARCASE_XPN%\""
That way, you can first list the versions involved:
cleartool find . -cview -print
And then, if you agree with the output, apply the mklabel through the -exec directive.
The OP user1096966 reports making it work with a cleartool ls, to be sure to select only element visible in the current view:
cleartool ls -r -vis
The is no '-exec' directive, so a pipe might be involved, as in (not tested, but you get the idea):
cleartool ls -r -vis -s -nxn | xargs cleartool mklabel -replace TEST_LABEL
The doco is really clear about what is being labelled, in fact the first example shown in doco states that exactly...current view objects are labelled by default & currently selected versions (i.e. if in your view then label it, else not.)
....extract below from doco below (note: context and command and that label-type-selector pname is the last parameter...left blank below because resident in working dir)...
Example:
•Create a label type named REL6. Attach that label to the version of the current directory selected by your view, and to the currently selected version of each element in and below the current directory.
cmd-context> mklbtype –nc REL6

newbie for clearcase.
Since clearcase's config is rather different from other concept in git, I may mean logs for
any files with specified version/branch path.
Like I want to show log for all element match:
element * .../specified-lable-or-branch/
First you need to be aware of the differences between ClearCase and Git, ClearCase being file-centric (no notion of repository-wide revision or commit)
You can display logs for any visible file by typing:
cleartool lshistory /myView/myVob/path/to/myFile
See lshistory man page. (and also How do I understand about ClearCase event records in the VOB database)
The lshistory command lists event records in reverse chronological order, describing operations that have affected a VOB's data.
File system data history.
Lists events concerning elements, branches, versions, and VOB links.
This includes records for creation and deletion of objects, and records for attaching and removal of annotations: version labels, attributes, and hyperlinks.
Another kind of logs is the lsvtree (history of versions):
The lsvtree command lists part or all of the version tree of one or more elements.
By default, the listing includes all branches of an element's version tree except for obsolete branches.

The OP adds:
How can I display all history for elements match a pattern like has new version under a branch?
You can combine almost any commands with a find query.
Windows syntax:
cleartool find . -name "apattern" -exec "cleartool lshistory \"%CLEARCASE_PN%\""
cleartool find . -version "{created_since(target-data-time)}" -exec "cleartool lshistory \"%CLEARCASE_PN%\""
Unix syntax:
cleartool find . -name "apattern" -exec 'cleartool lshistory "$CLEARCASE_PN"'
cleartool find . -version "{created_since(target-data-time)}" -exec 'cleartool lshistory "$CLEARCASE_PN"'
For the " like has new version under a branch?" specifically:
cleartool find . -version "brtype(mybranch)" -exec ...
should do it (any element which has no version created for that branch will not be listed).
