How to use CCRC to get old file versions?

Question

I'm trying to use CCRC API in order to get, for instance, all versions for a specific file and get some old file version.

I've tried to use CHILD_LIST, CHILD_MAP, tried to use CcFile.getVersion().getPredecessor() and then use CcFile.doReadProperties(...) but it seems that the location is remote and then is not possible to get the file using for example getClientPath().

I already saw that is possible to retrieve all versions for a specific file using CCRC plugin and select a specific version clicking in the version three.

Does anybody have some example how to retrieve this version without setting the config spec ?

Answer 1

The CCRC CLI is not very complete in 7.X, and even the first 8.0.0.x.

rcleartool is completed with the latest 8.x releases, and included a rcleartool get which allows you to access any version you want.
