    Some Details of functions provided
    =================================
    Supports Windows only, though most of the Cleartool commands and options are the same on Unix
    Assumes default instilation of ClearCase working with Dynamic Views
    If ClearCase is NOT installed in default location then you can manually alter install location in ClearToolPath.vi
    Two types of methods
    1) VI using ClearCase Cleartool command line all named *_ct.vi
    2) VI using the ClearCase Automation Library (CAL) all named *_cal.vi
    No interface currently provided for UCM ClearCase operations
    Add.vi
    ========
    This VI will add an element or directory to Clearcase ie create a new ClearCase Object.
    NOTES
    1 The Parent Object (directory) must be a ClearCase Object
    2 The Parent object will automatcially be checkedout if it is not already checkedout
    3 By default both the parent dir and the added object will be left checkedout
    4 If adding a file, the file must already exist
    5 If adding a directory , the directory must NOT exist, remember to set Directoy? to true
    A creation comment can be added Comment.

    BranchInfo.vi
    =============
    This Vi checks if the Branch Name passed in exists in the VOB specified by a Valid VOB Object and if it does it will return the following information.
    branch exist? true / false
    locked state? True (locked) False (unlocked)
    branch description Branch creation comment
    obsloete? True (locked & obsolete) false (just locked)
    Note only the supplied VOB is checked branch could exist in other VOBs
    uses Cleartool command describe -type brtype with formating options

    CheckIn.vi
    ====================
    This VI will attempt to checkoutin a ClearCase Object (file or folder).
    uses ClearTool --- uncheck/out | unco [ –kee/p | –rm ] { –cact [ pname ... ] | pname ... }
    –kee/p
    Preserves the contents of the checked-out version under a file-name of the form element-name.keep (or, to prevent name collisions, element-name.keep.1, element-name.keep.2, and so on).
    –rm
    Does not preserve the contents of the checked-out version. Thus, any edits that had been made to the checked-out version are lost.
    NOTE. Error -2904 if files in not checked out

    No waranty included
    CheckOut.vi
    =================
    This VI will attempt to checkout a ClearCase object (FIle or Folder).
    INPUTS
    ----------
    FileName & Path itme to be checked out can be file or floder
    Checkout comment A checkout comment
    checkout Type see below
    CC Branch A optional branch to checkout on e.g \main \main\dev\ats\111 see below
    uses ClearTool
    checkout | co [ –res/erved ] [–unr/eserved [ –nma/ ster ] ]
    [ –out dest-pname | –nda/ ta ] [ –pti/me ]
    [ –bra/nch branch-pname | –ver/sion ] [ –nwa/rn ]
    [ –c/omment comment | –cfi/le comment-file-pname | –cq/uery | –cqe/ach
    | –nc/omment ][ –q/uery | –nq/uery |–use/hijack ] pname ...
    –res/erved
    Reserves the branch: no user in another view can perform a reserved checkout of the same branch (but any number of unreserved checkouts can be performed); no new versions can be created on the branch until your checkout is changed to unreserved with unreserve or resolved with checkin or uncheckout. If you specify both –reserved and –unreserved, this command performs a reserved checkout if possible; otherwise, an unreserved checkout.
    –unr/eserved [ –nma/ster ]
    Leaves the branch unreserved; other users, in other views, can check out the same version (but at most one of the checkouts can be reserved).
    CC BRANCH
    Default - blank. View Config specifications rules will be applied.
    This allows a specific branch to be used to be used to checkout the file. NOTE branch must in this case MUST be the full branch path ie \main\dev-ats-456 not the branch type dev-ats-456. If CC Branch is used the CC warning messages are suppresed as they WILL occurs, but do not indicated we have have a problem, the branch used MUST EXISTS for the objects being checked out
