Steve, you can't change a file's set; why not just work in the existing 
set?  i.e.  workon -sb sandbox setname

Bcreate is only used when there's no rcs file yet for this file, ie. it
doesn't exist in any configuration.  If it does exist already, you can do
a bco.  So to change a file's set, do a bco in the new set, then bci the
file you want.  Later outdate the old set (bcs [-u] -o -set setname file).

Hi Paul, I seem to be having a great deal of trouble submitting some files to the pool. I'm wondering if it might not be easier to just re-submit them to another directory and then move them over to the right directory? Here's my problem: It appears that one (or more) of my subdirectories for my dxprint project was not fully submitted to the pool by add_new_prj_files. Perhaps this was due to the large number of files---I'm not sure. The directory I'm concerned with right now (as you may have surmised) is called Paths. It should contain 107 files. (Incidentally, these files are generated automatically.) I wish to use some kind of a script to submit them all to the pool. add_new_prj_files doesn't seem to be effective because there are already some of the files in the pool. I've tried to submit just the files that are not in the pool, but that doesn't seem to be effective. One thing that seems to be confounding my progress is that I changed sets. I wanted all of these things to be in the Steve_Schneider_dxprint set. It didn't seem to be a problem for other files, but I'm having trouble with these. (Also, my experience with the error messages is somewhat limited, and I'm not always sure what the Right Thing to do is when I get an error from a submission.) For instance, I'm confused by this: 62 QA monterio> !bs bstat DXpPath1.tcl [ ./Xtea/Clients/dxprint/Paths/DXpPath1.tcl ] [ There is no branch revison for set Steve_Schneider_dxprint. ] 63 QA monterio> rm DXpPath1.tcl Ok, so the file doesn't exist in this set. Therefore, I figured that I ought to bcreate the file so as to make it exist in this set. 64 QA monterio> bcreate !$ bcreate DXpPath1.tcl [ ./Xtea/Clients/dxprint/Paths/DXpPath1.tcl ] [ source control information already exists in file: "./Xtea/Clients/dxprint/Paths/DXpPath1.tcl,v" ] But bcreate doesn't work. Perhaps I just need to know how to change the set that a file lives in. What do you think is the best course of action at this stage of the game? Thanks for your time, --steve

Subj: 	ODE trouble [can't submit Paths] (how to change file's set?)

Hi Paul,

I seem to be having a great deal of trouble submitting some files to
the pool.  I'm wondering if it might not be easier to just re-submit
them to another directory and then move them over to the right directory?

Here's my problem:

It appears that one (or more) of my subdirectories for my dxprint project
was not fully submitted to the pool by add_new_prj_files.  Perhaps this
was due to the large number of files---I'm not sure.  

The directory I'm concerned with right now (as you may have surmised)
is called Paths.  It should contain 107 files.  (Incidentally, these
files are generated automatically.)  I wish to use some kind of a script
to submit them all to the pool.  

add_new_prj_files doesn't seem to be effective because there are already
some of the files in the pool.  I've tried to submit just the files
that are not in the pool, but that doesn't seem to be effective.

One thing that seems to be confounding my progress is that I changed sets.
I wanted all of these things to be in the Steve_Schneider_dxprint set.
It didn't seem to be a problem for other files, but I'm having trouble
with these.  (Also, my experience with the error messages is somewhat
limited, and I'm not always sure what the Right Thing to do is when I
get an error from a submission.)

For instance, I'm confused by this:

    62 QA monterio> !bs
    bstat DXpPath1.tcl

    [ ./Xtea/Clients/dxprint/Paths/DXpPath1.tcl ]
    [ There is no branch revison for set Steve_Schneider_dxprint. ]
    63 QA monterio> rm DXpPath1.tcl

Ok, so the file doesn't exist in this set.  Therefore, I figured
that I ought to bcreate the file so as to make it exist in this set.

    64 QA monterio> bcreate !$
    bcreate DXpPath1.tcl

    [ ./Xtea/Clients/dxprint/Paths/DXpPath1.tcl ]
    [ source control information already exists in file: 
      "./Xtea/Clients/dxprint/Paths/DXpPath1.tcl,v" ]

But bcreate doesn't work.  Perhaps I just need to know how to change
the set that a file lives in.

What do you think is the best course of action at this stage of the game?

Thanks for your time,
--steve
