The cleartool has many facets, one of which is find. The syntax of clearcase’s version of find is similar to that of GNU’s find with a couple of clearcase additions that allow you to search specific clearcase attributes. It is beyond the scope of this document to describe GNU’s find. Here are a couple of Hints and Tricks to get cleartool find to give you something useful.

Find files created by me:

cleartool find . -name “*” -ver “created_by(mrn)” -print

Find files created by me after 29 May 2009:

cleartool find . -name “*” -ver “created_by(mrn) && created_since(29-May-2009)” -print

Find files created by me between 29 May 2009 and 6 June 2009 inclusive:

cleartool find . -name “*” -ver “created_by(mrn) && created_since(29-May-2009) && !created_since(6-Jun-2009)” -print
