Recognized Keywords

PRCS understands the following built-in keywords, in addition to any declared in the Project-Keywords attribute. Others are ignored (their instances are left unchanged). Instances of the Source and ProjectHeader keywords change whenever the file is moved from one directory to another within a project. Instances of Project, ProjectDate, ProjectAuthor, ProjectMajorVersion, ProjectMinorVersion, ProjectVersion, and ProjectHeader can change even when the file containing them does not, since they depend on the project, not the file. These keywords are known collectively as project-related keywords.

Author
The login of the user who created this checked-in version of the file. Changes in a file due solely to project-related keyword replacement do not affect the value of this keyword.
Date
The date and time at which this version of the file was checked in. Changes in a file due solely to project-related keyword replacement do not affect the value of this keyword.
Basename
The base name of the file, as it appears in the Files attribute.
Revision
A notation that serves as a revision number for this file (it is independent of the project's version number, and changes only when the file changes). Changes in a file due solely to project-related keyword replacement do not affect the value of this keyword.
Id
A standard header combining the Basename, Revision, Date, and Author.
Source
The full name of the file, as a pathname relative to the root of the project's directory tree.
Project
The name of the project containing the file version.
ProjectDate
The date and time the project containing this file version was checked in.
ProjectAuthor
The login name of the user who checked in the project version containing this file version.
ProjectMajorVersion
The major version name of the project version containing this file version.
ProjectMinorVersion
The minor version name (a number) of the project version containing this file version.
ProjectVersion
The complete version designator for this project version. It has the form M.N, where M is the major project-version name and N is the minor project-version name.
ProjectHeader
A standard header combining the Project, ProjectVersion, ProjectDate, and ProjectAuthor.
