CLC: how to add several files at once?

Tri · Post by **Tri** » Tue Jun 21, 2005 11:55 am

Client + Server 3.07.

Working folder C:\myProject contains *.doc and *.txt files. I would like to add all *.doc into $/myProject Vault folder.

Please note: I don't want to add the entire C:\myProject folder because $/myProject already exist.

I've tried unsuccessfully:
Vault ADD (conection options etc.) $/myProject C:\myProject\*.doc
Error = *.doc file not found.

Is there anyway for CLC to recognize wildcard file specs for ADD, CHECKOUT?

According to vault.exe help, wildcards are supported in Get and Checkout but not Add. You need to use the -wildcard option.

I have already tried -wildcard option. It is ignored.

Could you send me your command? Email to Linda at Sourcegear.com

Wildcard does not work for ADD. You can get and checkout and using wildcards, but for gets, use the GETWILDCARD command and for Checkout use the -wildcard option.

Examples:

GETWILDCARD:

vault GETWILDCARD -host host -user username -password password -repository Repositoryname $/ReposFolder *.txt

CHECKOUT

vault CHECKOUT -host host -user username -password password -repository Repositoryname $/Reposfolder -wildcard *.txt
