Clearcase Snapshot View Synchronisation

[Richard M Smith <Ri...@ons.gsi.gov.uk>]

Can anyone supply some sample code for automatically synchronising a
Clearcase snapshot view prior to a build?

I am in the process of switching my Maven 2 Java build from Visual Source
Safe to ClearCase (new to me).

      <plugin>
        <artifactId>maven-scm-plugin</artifactId>
        <configuration>
              <connectionUrl>scm:clearcase:view:load
/NESS_PVOB1/Projects/NESS_FR01/NESS_FR01_Int:NESS_PVOB1:xrender_dev</connectionUrl>
                    <recursive>true</recursive>
          <excludes>model/**</excludes>
        </configuration>
      </plugin>

This works but I currently need to go into Clearcase and manually
resynchronise the view to pick up changes. I would like the build to do it
for me. I have been supplied with some Ant code...

      <exec dir="${viewpath}${checked.stream}" executable="cleartool.exe"
outputproperty="checked.stream.response">
            <arg value="setcs"/>
            <arg value="-stream"/>
      </exec>

I want to do something similar in Maven but I can't find an example.
Nearest I could get was a bug report saying cleartool update -force could
cause a crash.

Thanks

Richard

Do you have an own build system? Maybe you are better of using something
like Hudson?

The command to update the view is scm:update (
http://maven.apache.org/scm/plugins/index.html#update-mojo)
