How to create UCM Activities without a UCM view

To create an activity without having or being set in to a UCM or non-UCM view, you must first have the following information:

• The exact name, including proper punctuation and case, of the integration or development stream in which the user wishes to create the activity on.
  
  
• The exact name, including proper punctuation and case, of the project VOB

Command Syntax

The following command can be used from either a Windows, UNIX or Linux prompt from any location on the system to create a new UCM activity:

cleartool mkactivity -in

Example

Let us assume you want to create an activity called "friday_build" on a stream called "repro_dev" that is in a Project VOB named "ucmpvob" which is located on a Windows server:

C:\>cleartool mkactivity -in stream:repro_dev@\ucmpvob friday_build@\ucmpvob
Created activity "friday_build".

Note: For a developer to use this newly created activity, they will need to set to this activity using a UCM view:

M:\repro_dev>cleartool setact friday_build
Set activity "friday_build" in view "repro_dev".
