File Status and Source Control

We recently started using Source Control with one of our projects. After opening up the project, we noticed under the Status Field, we're no longer seeing "Writeable" and it's just blank. Please see screen shot below.
In our other project that is NOT connected to Source Control, we're able to see "Writeable" under Status Field.
Could someone please explain to me as to why the project connected to Source Control we're no longer see "Writeable" under the Status Field? Is there a way for us to make it show up again?

They're only writeable if you check them out, as marked by the "Checked out" indicator in the first topic in the top screenshot. The blank line implies "un-Writeable."
Good luck,
Leon

Do I need to put these .pxml files under the source control?

I use Jdeveloper created portlet consumer. after I run it in Jdeveloper, there are lot of .pxml files generated as metadata.
Do I need to put these .pxml files under the source control? or they will be generated at run time?
Thanks

Yup. Keep your mds folder under source control as well.

Working with uncompressed XFL files and source control | Learn Flash Professional CS5 & CS5.5 | Adobe TV

Use the Flash uncompressed XFL file format with a source control system to enable designers and developers to collaborate on Flash projects. Contributors can edit different assets simultaneously and see updated assets as soon as they are checked in.
http://adobe.ly/x0GHI4

This is a great overview of sequential use of source control with the xlf format. However, typically in a team setting, team members are working at the same time. Our team has found that many of the xlf files have one or more timestamp related entries that get updated even when no functional changes have occurred. This is particularly true of DOMDocument file, which timestamps changes, marks library elements as expanded or not, and tracks a published history. All of these changes conflict with anyone who is simultaneously working on the xlf. Any tips on how to deal with these issues?

Hi,
Could I ask for a bit more information about your environment so that I can either track down the problem or provide a workaround:
o Which specific version of Repository are you using?
o Which version of Windows?
o Does the workarea you're connecting to have a check-in branch set? (if you use Edit workarea... in the RON, check the Checkin branch page, and let me know if it's set to <None>).
I'll also have a look back at the 3.2 code when I'm back in the office tomorrow to see if I can find out what's causing the exception.
About the indication of status: this is one area where JDeveloper 3.2.3 is quite limited. The underlying addin API we use to integrate source control into 3.2 didn't have the flexibility we needed to display a state indicator in the navigator (in 9i, it's a whole lot more flexible, and we have very nice "overlay" icons that tell you what state a file is in). The only way to tell if a file is checked in or out in 3.2 is by looking at the Source Control menu for the file to see which items are enabled / disabled.
Thanks,
Brian

Flashbuilder 4 and source control?

In my work environment, we work with multiple source code branches of the same code base.
For example, we often have a private branches for ongoing development, and a trunk branch where everything is integrated. During the course of any one day, we need to switch between working on one branch or the other.
With other toolsets, this is easy - project files are checked into source control, and then checked out of whatever branch and built with no modifications.
Is there a way to do this with Flashbuilder4? The prevailing wisdom here right now is that each time I want to work with a new source code branch, I have to import files from the checked out source directory, set some project settings, and rebuild.
Is there a better way?

I'm with Tom here. I don't understand your project setup in your workspace and in your repository.
Since you said you're new to Flash Builder, are you aware of Subclipse? It's a plug-in for Eclipse that integrates SVN. Here are the instructions to download and install http://blogs.adobe.com/jasonsj/2010/03/installing_subclipse_in_flash_builder_4.html.

Command line build and source control (svn)

Using Flash Builder, what should be checked into source control to enable a command line build without any user interaction? Just checking in all the source directories is apparently not enough - as far as I can tell the individual projects have to be added to the workspace for the build to work.
I've experimentally determined that .metadata/.plugins/com.abobe.flexbuiler.project and .metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.core.resources are the 2 directories required for my build to work. the com.adobe.flexbuilder.project directory is pretty straight forward and it's obvious what needs to get checked in. the org.eclipse.core.resources directory has quite a bit more files contained in it - do all of these need to be checked into source control for the build to work? Deleting the .history folder appears to be ok.

Hi GB_Austin,
What you need to do is set up a Single Source Layout (SSL) to
build with the conditional tags. If you are not sure how to do
this, let me know. Let's assume you have a SSL that can do this and
it is called "General". To build it using Command Line Compilation,
use the following command:
rhcl [address of your project's xpj file] -l "General" -o
[address of the output directory]
The -l (lower case L) tells the caommand line to use this
SSL. If you leave -l "General" out it will compile your Primary
Layout instead. If you leave out the -o and the address, the output
chm file will be placed in the current folder. So the basic command
is just:
rhcl [address of your project's xpj file]
I hope this has helped,
darkagn

Which RoboHelp 9 files belong in source control?

I have a new RoboHelp 9 project. All source is in FrameMaker 10. Only layout I'm using is Printed Documentation.
I'd like to check the RoboHelp 9 project files into source control (cvs). I don't want to waste space by checking in generated files.
Which files besides the .xpj and the .dot file do I need to include?

if it is your RoboHelp source that you want added to source control see this thread for the answer:
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/200551
If you generate your output to the default location (e.g. <project>\!SSL!\Printed Documentation) you'll want to exclude that also.
However if you are linking your FrameMaker files, these are your real source so maybe these should be added to source control rather than your RH project.

Picking source file A first if source file A and source file B both appear

I have a situation where two source file with two different data format. Hence I will need to create two different mapping
and then different parameters at file sender adapter FCC.
However there is such a condition where source file A will need to process first before picking and process source file B.
if both appear at folder at the same time else source B will be process if no source file A.
Beside using the scheduler at availiablity times at Runtime workbench, if there any other options ?
Regards
Fred
I

There are two different send file adapters involved due to different data format between source file A and B.
Beside using BPM is there any other method.
If doing at adapter module or operating command, how to do it ?

Windows Explorer keeps crashing under Win 7 with RH7 and Source Control installed

This is an "informational" thread in case someone experiences the same problems. We installed RH7 on Windows 7 32-bit and accidentally, Robo Source Control was installed, too, although we do not use it. The latter loads three extensions into the shell that caused the Windows Explorer to crash on a regular basis ("Windows Explorer has stopped working"). After deinstallation of Robo Source, the problem seems to be resolved.

I would like to tell you that this problem is an issue with RH8, as well.

How do I manage 3rd party add ons and source control

Some developers friends of mine just got burned because a 3rd party add on to LabVIEW they use in thier code was not in the Software repository. They needed to go back and rebuild a previous version, but it was not immedietely obvious which version of the add on belonged to which version of the source code.
The 3rd party helped make this worse by being perfectly happy to change the pin outs on the API VIs in between revisions.
So they could not simply select a non buggy version of the add on and a non buggy version of the source and compile.
In some cases we have put 3rd party add ons in the source directory so they become part of the SVN project. My friends had them where they where installed, which was under the vi.lib folder.
This does not always work. For example the Internet Toolkit's FTP code has so many layers that it can be a challenge to get them all moved over. If you want to have the ability to overwrite local files when doing a get, you need to make a small change about 5 layers down in the VIs. We basically have to do this for every developer machine that has LV 8.5 on it. (LV 2010 fixed this. It was the first thing we checked.)
So I am wondering what other LV professionals do to manage revision control of 3rd party add ons.
Thanks!

I generally created a ZIP file of the entire third party tool and all of its pieces. Generally they are well enough behaved that everything is at least under a single folder in the file system. I then check this file into source code control. Another optio would be to use JKI's Package Manager. You could create your own local packages of the third party tool and use VIPM to manage those packages. I generally don't put any of NI's toolkits in source code control.

3D printer - file usage and printing control

I hope you can clarify the below.How a 3D printer file can limit the number of copies the user can print ? Does it have an attribute? Can you provide files to print wich are editable or read only ? For example if I send a file I don’t allow to print more than 3 copies neither change the file (the design). I assume file delivery in the internet can be secured with a key as any other encryption , correct ?I found HP to be the most popular printer and standard but not the only one http://www8.hp.com/us/en/commercial-printers/floater/3Dprinting.html .

Hi yoelapin, and welcome to the HP Support Forum. HP announced its Multi Jet Fusion 3D printing technology in late October 2014. Widespread access to this technology for consumers is not expected to become available until 2016. At this time consumers will have affordable access to HP's 3D printing technology through service bureaus (3D print service providers). The questions you ask in your post are all related to how the service bureau interacts with its customers and are not unique to HP's Multi Jet Fusion 3D printing technology. Thanks for your interest in HP's 3D printing offering and check back in to the website in your post for further news as it becomes available. Best.

Saving Flex .launch file in source control

For my Flex project, I am not using default path to launch in the run/debug settings. This creates problem b/c everytime someone gets the project from source control, import it to Flash Builder, he/she always need to manually change the path.
I am trying to put the .launch file in the source control so we can eliminate this manual process. The problem is I can't seem to define relative URL in the path to launch. I tried the standard ..\..\xx\xx\index.html approach, and I've also tried using the eclipse enviroment variable such as {DOCUMENTS}\xx\xx\index.html
Has anyone encounter this problem ? Is this even possible ?
Please help... Thanks

I have seen that sometimes LV doesn't update the status of SCC icons. After a fail I *always* hit the Refresht status option (tools->Source Control)

Multi-authoring with source control with RH10 and RH11

Situation:
Writer A is running RH10. Writer A opens Project A, from Visual Studio Source Control, which is connected to a Team Foundation Server.
A new employee, Writer B, has been given RH11.
Writer A can't install RH11 until after mid-June because of tight schedules (can't afford any upgrade problems).
Writer B is supposed to work on the same Help project. (We know that RoboHelp does not support checking out the same file at the same time.)
If Writer B configures her version of RH11 to work with TFS and Source Control, can she open Project A and work on it (from Source Control) without causing problems for Writer A?
Thanks.
Carol Levine

If Writer B is not using Source Control or it is competely separate from Writer A, possibly but I still would not be comfortable.
I think I would rather upgrade Writer A and I note your reservations. It's your call but it's like being between the devil and the deep blue sea. Neither is ideal.
So far it looks like Rh11 upgrades have been OK.

Do I need Robohelp Server or Source Control? and RH installation

So, I'm still comparing authoring products and trying to filter down requirements.
I've been reading more about RH and have come across RH Server and source Control and wondering exactly if they are needed.
I'm the single author in the company, most likely publishing web help, or html help outputs for use online via our web application.
Is there any need to implement Server or source control, as far as I can see Server gives me reporting abilities and statistic reports, neither of which I really need. Is there anything else about RH Server that would be beneficial?
Also, source control, this is more needed when there are multiple writers accessing the same content at the same time so that problems dont crop up? Correct?
Also, how difficult, or time consuming is the installation process of RH on a single machine. Is it a simple program installation, or will I need to install server-side databases or anything else that could require the IT team to get involved?
Thanks for your help.
Nick

Hi Nick.
You have got it pretty much spot on. RoboHelp Server is mainly only required if you want the additional reporting functionality. There are some other minor differences between RoboHelp and RoboHelp Server but that is the main one. RoboSource Control is a application to get source files safe and backed up and is designed for a multi-author environment. It adds a layer of complexity for a single author environment although you can still use it if you wish. Personally I'd just ensure you have your source on a local drive (a key requirement of RoboHelp) and backup to a network drive.
The installation of RoboHelp is painless. It is just like any other application with a wizard to guide you. It has various options that you can choose, one of which is whether to install the RoboSourceControl client.
