When you issue the checkin command
from a dynamic view, the request is handled as follows:
- If the version that you checked out is not the latest version
in the VOB, you are required to merge the changes in the latest version into
the version checked out in your view. You are prevented from checking the
file in until you perform the merge.
- It copies the contents of the view-private file to the VOB
as a new version.
- It uses the version-selection rules of the config spec to
select a version from the VOB. If the config spec selects a version other
than the one you checked in, a message is displayed. Another version can be
selected if, for example, your view selects versions based on labels or time
rules.
- It removes the view-private file and provides transparent
access to the version checked in to the VOB.
