[software_selections] [@ target_selections]
Command Line Arguments
-i
Invokes a GUI interface that lets you perform interactive software selections. If the
environment variable DISPLAY is set to a valid X windows display, a graphical user
interface is invoked. Otherwise a terminal user interface (TUI) designed for use on
ASCII terminals is invoked. You must specify -i to invoke the GUI; it never starts by
default.
-d
Lists software depots instead of software currently installed on the target system.
-v
If no -a options are specified, then list all the attributes for an object, one attribute
per line. The attributes are listed in the format:
keyword value
If one or more -a options are specified, then list the selected attributes in the above
format.
-a attribute
The named attribute is included in the listing when defined at the specified level.
While this option may be specified multiple times, the ordering of the arguments
does not control the format of the list.
-s source
Specifies the software source to list. This is an alternative way to list a source depot.
You can also specify the sources as target depots and list them using the –d option.
s/w_selections
One or more software specifications.
target
The depot to be listed. If not specified, the target is assumed to be the system itself.
-l level
Specifies the detail of the swlist output. The values used include:
 file
List all files recorded in the IPD. The listing may be limited in scope by the
s/w_selections specification. Each file is preceded by the product and fileset that is
the registered owner of that file. A comment (marked by a leading # character) precedes
each block giving the name, revision, and description of the product or fileset to be listed.
 fileset
List all filesets recorded in the IPD (in product.fileset format) with the associated
revision and description. A comment (marked by a leading # character) precedes each block
giving the name, revision, and description of the product.
 product
List all products with revision and description for each.
 bundle
List all bundles with revision and description for each.
 depot
List all registered depots on the target system.
 patch
List all patch filesets using the full software specification, followed by the associated
description and current patch_state. The listing is sorted by ancestor, and all products
and filesets are listed as a comment showing revision and description before any patch
fileset that apply to it.
 category
List all category tags currently defined within the target depot.
 default (no level specified)
When no level is specified, swlist displays all bundles within the depot followed by any
products not contained within a bundle. As is the case with their respective levels, the
bundles and products are listed with revision and one-line description.
