Hi,

We have a project that groups areas of functionality by separating the relevant files into subdirectories. If I'm in the Task Browsing View screen for a particular task, it lists all the files updated as a result of that task. Does anybody know how I can find out which subdirectory each of these files is in?

Thanks

Jim

From the GUI the only way would probably be to highlight each object in turn, click on the History button & then by right-clicking on the object from the History View, select Find Use...

It might be easier from the command line: a very quick & dirty option would be:

ccm query -task 12345
ccm finduse @

But that won't tell me which subdirectory my file is in! All it will do is tell me which project it's in (and it could be in any of the subdirectories within that project). I still have to open and close all my subdirectories in Project View until I stumble across the file!

Synergy could be a great tool but it's let down by a dreadful interface and a lack of basic functionality!

Are you sure abvout that? Finduse gives you the exact location of the objects in each project (or certain projects depending on scope) - including all the intervening subdirectories. Leastways it does in 6.2 and I'm pretty certain it did back as far as 4.5.

Hello,

if you are using the Origin Client, it is possible to use the Show History button in the Task Browsing View, and then use the Find Use feature on highlighted object version.

I think you should try to use the Developer Client interface, which is much more convenient and powerful than the Origin Client. In Developer Client, you can display tasks properties, select any object version, and use the "Find Use in Project" option in contextual menu. This is easy to do, and very poweful.

Hope this helps.
