Hello Michael,

from time to time I run into problem with ClearCase, e.g. when I try

to hijack a file. I then get an error and the file is not updated

(although it is hijacked). I have a debug for this:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument number-char-or-marker-p t)

  clearcase-utl-touch-file("D:\\ws\\Sources\\adc.c")

  clearcase-hijack("D:\\ws\\Sources\\adc.c")

  #<compiled-function nil "...(4)" [buffer-file-name clearcase-hijack] 2 ("c:\\Programme\\XEmacs\\xemacs-packages\\lisp\\clearcase\\clearcase.elc" . 26474) nil>()

  call-interactively(clearcase-hijack-current-buffer)

  recursive-edit()

  byte-code("..." [buffer-read-only noninteractive debugger-buffer middlestart debugger-args debugger-batch-max-lines pop-to-buffer debugger-mode debugger-setup-buffer count-lines 2 "...\n" message buffer-string kill-emacs debug backtrace-debug 3 t debugger-reenable "" nil recursive-edit standard-output] 3)

After running in those problems I get regularly itimer error

signals. Debug information for those is here:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "Selecting deleted or non-existent buffer")

  clearcase-post-update-check-process-buffer(#<killed buffer>)

  clearcase-utl-list-filter(clearcase-post-update-check-process-buffer (#<killed buffer>))

  clearcase-post-update-timer-function()

  apply(clearcase-post-update-timer-function nil)

  byte-code("..." [this-command inhibit-quit quit-flag match-data itimer current-itimer match-data ((store-match-data match-data)) nil itimer-uses-arguments apply itimer-function itimer-function-arguments last-event-time next-wakeup itimers time-elapsed] 5)

  itimer-run-expired-timers(13.953)

  itimer-timer-driver(nil)

I hope you can use the probided information to solve the problem.

Kind regards,

Frank
