ClearCase::ClearPrompt 1.31

ClearCase::ClearPrompt is a Perl module that provides various areas of functionality, each based on clearprompt in some way but otherwise orthogonal. These are:<br /><br />- Clearprompt Abstraction<br /><br />Provides a simplified interface to the clearprompt program, taking care of creating and removing temp files as required.<br /><br />- Trigger Series Support<br /><br />Records and replays responses across multiple trigger firings.<br /><br />- Message Capture<br /><br />Catches output to stdout or stderr which would otherwise be lost in a GUI environment and pops them up as dialog boxes using clearprompt.<br /><br />- GUI trigger debugging support<br /><br />Can be told to run the trigger in a perl debugger session in a separate window. Useful for debugging trigger problems that come up only in the GUI.<br /><br />- InterOp Environment Normalization<br /><br />Modifies %ENV on Windows such that all CLEARCASE_* values use forward (/) slashes instead of backslashes. Generally useful in triggers where many path values such as $ENV{CLEARCASE_PN} are provided in the environment.<br /><br />- Directory Chooser<br /><br />Allows clearprompt to be used for selecting directories (aka folders).<br /><br />SYNOPSIS<br /><br /> use ClearCase::ClearPrompt qw(clearprompt);<br /><br /> # Boolean usage<br /> my $rc = clearprompt(qw(yes_no -mask y,n -type ok -prompt), 'Well?');<br /><br /> # Returns text into specified variable (context sensitive).<br /> my $txt = clearprompt(qw(text -pref -pro), 'Enter text data here: ');<br /><br /> # Asynchronous usage - show dialog box and continue<br /> clearprompt(qw(proceed -mask p -type ok -prompt), "You said: $txt");<br /><br /> # Trigger series (record/replay responses for multiple elements)<br /> use ClearCase::ClearPrompt qw(clearprompt /TRIGGERSERIES);<br /> my $txt = clearprompt(qw(text -pref -pro), 'Response for all elems: ');<br /><br /> # Clean up environment on Windows to use /-style paths:<br /> use ClearCase::ClearPrompt qw(/ENV);<br /><br /> # Cause the program to run in the debugger, even in a GUI environment:<br /> use ClearCase::ClearPrompt qw(/DEBUG);<br /><br /> # Automatically divert trigger error msgs to clearprompt dialogs<br /> use ClearCase::ClearPrompt qw(+ERRORS);<br /><br /> # As above but send error msgs via email instead to user1 and user2<br /> use ClearCase::ClearPrompt qw(+ERRORS=user1,user2);<br /><br /> # As above but send msgs to the current user<br /> use ClearCase::ClearPrompt '+ERRORS=' . ($ENV{LOGNAME} || $ENV{USERNAME});<br /><br /> # Prompt for a directory (not supported natively by clearprompt cmd)<br /> use ClearCase::ClearPrompt qw(clearprompt_dir);<br /> my $dir = clearprompt_dir('/tmp', "Please choose a directory");<br />
