Functionality bit 6
- Recursive CI/CO/UNCO
This portion of the license file contains the functionality bit to:
Provide recursive abilities to the checkin, checkout, and uncheckout commands.
Many development shops have requested a bit to provide this functionality. When a directory is
encountered during one of these commands the user is given the opportunity to
perform that operation on that directories children as well as the directory.
Below is an example dialog that
would be encountered if the command was the "checkout" command; similar dialogs would appear for the "checkin" or
"uncheckout" command.
If the user requests recursion, then the command is repeated recursively for any
children that can have that action applied to it at that time (i.e. for checkout - all children are checked
out that are currently checked in).
- When the user is performing checkout or checkin then the comment for the directory is
automatically applied to the children.
- When the user is performing a checkin then they are prompted whether or not
to use the -identical option for the children.
- When the user is performing an uncheckout then they are prompted whether or
not to use the -keep or -rm option for the children.
