The default tool used to compare files in ClearCase is cleardiffmrg.exe, if you want to use some other software to do the same job, here is how to configure it:

Step 1:

Open file: “C:/Program Files/Rational/ClearCase/lib/mgrs/map”

Step 2:

Find the line:

text_file_delta xcompare ../../bin/cleardiffmrg.exe

And edit the tool’s path like following:

text_file_delta xcompare C:/Software/r-Beyond.Compare/BC2.exe

Note:

C:/Software/r-Beyond.Compare/BC2.exe is my compare tool’s path, and you should set the correct path of yourself.

Shift + F8

Ctrl + o

Esc to close the dialog box

Ctrl + /

Ctrl + m

Options→Document Options…

Figure 19 - Document Options Setting

In the Coding Style for ECDS [2], indentation should be made with spaces rather than with tab characters. Source Insight could expand tab to spaces automatically by selecting ‘Expand tabs’ and setting ‘Tab width’ like following:

Figure 20 - Document Options Setting

In the Coding Style for ECDS [2], it is recommended that line length should no longer than 79 characters. Source Insight could show the margin by selecting ‘Show right margin’ and setting ‘Margin width’ like following:

Figure 21 - Document Options Setting

Options→Preferences…

Figure 22 - Preferences Setting

Options→Document Options…→Auto Indent…

It is suggested that select ‘Smart’ in the ‘Auto Indent Type’ field, and do not select the ‘Indent Open Brace’ and ‘Indent Close Brace’ options in the ‘Smart Indent Options’ field.

Like the VBA for Word or Excel, Source Insight provides a C-like macro language, which is useful for scripting commands, inserting specially formatted text, and automating editing operations.

This document only introduces a simple way of how to edit the macro file and run macros by shortcut key.

and utils.em file

The Base project is automatically created when the first time you run Source Insight. And the Base project is a good place to add your favorite Source Insight editor macro files.

The default file in the Base project is utils.em, open the file and add following codes to it. The function is open the corresponding .cpp or .h file of current file.

   1: // Open the corresponding .cpp or .h file

   2: macro OpenCorrespondingCppOrHFile()

   3: {

   4:     hCurrentBuf = GetCurrentBuf ()

   5:     bname = GetBufName (hCurrentBuf)

   6:     len = strlen (bname)

7:

   8:     if (".cpp" == strmid (bname, len-4, len))

   9:     {

  10:         filename = strmid (bname, 0, len-4)#".h"

  11:     }

  12:     else if (".h" == strmid (bname, len-2, len))

  13:     {

  14:         filename = strmid (bname, 0, len-2)#".cpp"

  15:     }

  16:     else

  17:     {

  18:         filename = Nil

  19:     }

  20:     if (filename != Nil)

  21:     {

  22:         hbufnext = OpenBuf (filename)

  23:         if (hbufnext != hNil)

  24:         {

  25:             SetCurrentBuf (hbufnext)

  26:         }

  27:     }

  28: }

Options→Key Assignments…

Choose the “Macro: OpenCorrespondingCppOrHFile” in the Command field and press “Assign New Key…” button. I suggest assigning “Alt + ~” to this macro.

After these setting, you can open another project and test the “Alt + ~” shortcut key then.
