hi

I am working on automation of clearcase, in which- my perl scripts should automatically set a view, start the view, set the label and version according to user's choice and retrive the source codes and copy it to remote location. but when I try to run command in my perl scripts:

system ("/usr/atria/bin/cleartool setview <view_name>");

and it doesn't come out of the program until i enter exit. and then rest of the program gets executed. I can see that this is occuring due to the cleartool command which spawns a subshell.

So i tried using cleartool::CtCmd and other clearcse perl modules. but the problem is now that I am working on linux server and i don't have permission to install new perl modules. so i install my new version of perl locally and i tried installing perl modules locally. i am able to install some modules successfully and also able to work with them. but I am not able to install clearcase-perl moduels and even if i'm successful in installing them locally, my program is not able to use the locally installed modules. i even add local modules directory path to @INC array. but it's still not working. I can see my installed modules in the same directoy. what may be wrong here?

and the modules i am not able to install i.e. ClearCase::CtCmd, what may be the issue? i even set all the environment variable values,but i think i am still misssing something. please help me. I can not proceed with my further work without solving this issue.

or show me the other way where i can set clearcase view automatically and copy the source code to remote location or some local directory.
