If the property does not exist, AccuRev creates it; that is, a new property does not require a separate create command. Properties are not TimeSafe; if you respecify or remove a property, you cannot roll back to the prior property name/value pair.If you want to restrict the ability to set properties on a stream or principal, you need to modify the server_admin_trig server-side trigger. See Format of the “server_admin_trig” Trigger Parameters File on page 94 of the AccuRev Administrator’s Guide.-s <stream>-u <principal>Specifies the name of the property. Maximum of 255 characters. Property names are case-insensitive regardless of depot settings or platform. The names title and Title are equivalent, for example.Tip: You can set the background color of streams and workspaces using the streamStyle reserved property. See Setting Stream Color for more information.-l <file-name>To specify a file as a value (an image, for example), use -l with the <file-name> option. You can use either a relative or absolute path to specify the file location. If you do not specify a path, AccuRev assumes the file is in the current directory. Note that when you use -l, you must reverse the order of the name/value pair to value/name.The -l option transfers the file content to the AccuRev Server. Similarly, if a file name is specified when reading a stream or principal property (using getproperty, for example), AccuRev places the content in that file; otherwise, AccuRev returns the file name for that property. See getproperty for more information.XML input, enclosed with quotation marks, used to specify the value for the streamStyle (for color) and streamCustomIcon (for displaying icons and tooltips) reserved properties. See Setting Stream Color and Setting Stream Icons for more information. You can use both reserved properties for a stream, but each must be specified separately.Option required to designate a property as reserved. Required for streamStyle, streamCustomIcon, and stagingStreamResult. Reserved properties are not displayed in the StreamBrowser’s Property dialog box.You can use the reserved property streamStyle to set the background color of a stream or workspace. The streamStyle property takes XML in the following format as its argument:The preceding example is formatted to make it easy to read, but you should enter it as a single string when you specify the value for the streamStyle property. For example:Note that the XML must be enclosed in quotes, and that the color (the <background-color> tag) is expressed as a hex value (#FF0000, for example). AccuRev supports web-safe colors.You can use the reserved property streamCustomIcon to display an icon on a stream. AccuRev allows you to set:The streamCustomIcon property takes XML in the following format as its argument:"<streamicon>
<image>running | success | warning | failed</image>
<clickurl>desired URL, http://example.com/build, for example</clickurl>
<tooltip>desired tooltip, Build 1245 passed, for example</tooltip>
</streamicon>"The preceding example is formatted to make it easy to read, but you should enter it as a single string when you specify the value for the streamCustomIcon property. For example:If you refer to an image that is unknown to AccuRev, AccuRev displays the "warning" icon and a tooltip like the following: Unknown icon name "sucess" in reserved stream property streamCustomIcon.Note that the XML used to specify the <streamicon> argument must be enclosed in quotes, and it must be well-formed. Reserved characters like the ampersand (&) must be properly escaped (as & or &, for example). If there are errors in the XML, AccuRev displays an error like the following when you click the status icon to open the URL:Invalid XML in reserved stream property streamCustomIcon.
You might see this error if you do not properly escape an ampersand (&) in a URL parameter. In this case, AccuRev displays the warning icon and the error message shown here instead of those specified in the <image> and <tooltip> tags, respectively.Illegal character in query at index 29:http://example.com/build?foo= bar
You might see this error if you do not properly escape a space in the URL specified in the <clickurl> tag. Note that in this case, AccuRev displays the icon and tooltip you defined (assuming they have been correctly specified).AccuRev supports the use of HTML tags to format tooltips displayed using the <tooltip> tag. For example, you can:
