adl_ci

Checking-in official acquisitions

Quick Reference

Abstract

The adl_ci command checks in the official acquisitions of the current image of the current workspace. With this command you can record intermediate states of files in a workspace, in the database, without making a photo or promoting the workspace to the parent workspace.

Synopsis

adl_ci file... [-all] [-wr] [-allow_private] [-tree ws_tree_name...] [-h | -help | -?]

Usage

The “–all” option indicates that all the checked-out files of the current image ([1] adl_co command) must be saved in the database. If a file has not been modified, the command runs a uncheck-out on this file, instead of a check-in.
The difference between the adl_ci and adl_photo commands is that adl_photo freezes the last revision of the workspace, meaning that each new change will lead to the creation of a new version of the workspace.

If a file has been acquired (checked-out) but not modified (compared to the contents of the database) an [2] adl_unco command is automatically performed.

It is also possible to replace the files acquired in private. Using the “-allow_private” option those files are seen as checked-our files.
No private acquisition in the current image except if you give the “–allow_private” option.

Note: the command rejects all the editable files if the last line does not end with a "end of line" character. This is done to avoid compilation errors on HPUX system.
