Hi Everyone, In my company, we are on a process to slowly migrate from ClearCase to Plastic SCM. They have devised a lot of methods to work with ClearCase over the years, and I am currently trying to "migrate" a specific procedure from CC to Plastic. What we do in CC: 1- We have a common view, let's call it common_view. It has its config spec set to retrieve the correct version of some files using a specific label. 2- Every user has a bat file on their startup configuration (we are using windows) 3- This batch file: Starts common_view from CC server using cleartool (and maps it to X:\common_view\ ) Copies (overwrites certain files (mostly perl scripts and batch files) from the CC view to a specific location (in AppData folder of the user) I would like to do this with plastic. We have already created a repo & workspace with the necessary files and applied the required label to the correct versions of the files. What I need is to download those files to a specific local path (that can be accessed via a script, on all of the users' computers) using a command line interface (I believe cm is the cleartool of Plastic, so to speak). How can I achieve this? Thank you very much for your help in advance.

Hi, We are evaluating alternative source control tools to replace ClearCase. Since we would be slowly migraitng away from clearcase, have some utilities which might make synchronising and migrating deliveries between the two version control tools would be useful. ie we found reference to a product called clearvision which sounds like it has features we'd like to use if we were migrating to one of the supported tools there http://www.clearvision-cm.com/clearcase-subversion-git-mercurial-integration.html Anyone know or had experiences of moving from Clearcase to plastic? Thanks for any help
