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.

  • Can i use subfolders with source control for developer ?

    We'd like to use the repository as source control for our developer files.
    We planned to use the following structure in the repository:
    - Application Container
    - Folder
    - Files
    We uploaded the files in the repository.
    Now if we open the file through the ron the file will open in form builder, which is pretty good.
    The following thing I'de like to do is a checkout of the file ... ok ...i'm going to file - administration - checkout - the message occurs: no versionable object exists ! ... ? :-(.
    So I go to file - administration - source control options .. i'd like to say forms that it has to look for the file in a subfolder of the application system .. ok.
    After changing this i try again - the same message.
    If I return to source control options the container entry has been changed to the application folder.
    Are Subfolders not supported by the source control for developer ?
    Does anybody have the same effects ?
    Background informations ?
    Thanks in advance

    Hello Brian
    Sorry, for the delay. I worked for some day for another customer.
    Yes, i did.
    I'm working like this:
    - upload file with check in Folder which is under an application Folder (app - fmb )
    - then i check out the fmb in the repository
    - doubleclick in repository, which opens the form in form builder
    - change the file
    - File - Administration - check-in - connect to repository - choosing the workarea - and defining the folder (app - fmb ).
    - The file will be check-in, but directly under the folder app.

  • Managing OSB services with source Control

    I have a number of services developed within an OSB and all the files .proxy , .biz , etc are stored in my source control system. This works perfectly fine when one team is working on one service.
    However now we are looking at branching the service to support multiple development efforts. Which means team A could be making changes to MyService.proxy and team B could be fixing bugs in the same proxy on a different branch.
    We want to periodically baseline the branches.
    I cannot see any documented approach to how we can merge these changes. Comparing the files as XML is ugly and extremely high risk. Having looked in this forum I have not much discussion on this in the past.
    I foresee multiple merge conflicts, overwritten changes and angst ahead.
    If anybody has dealt with this and has some clever approaches I would be grateful
    -Murph

    Hi Prabu,
    Thanks that is one approach to minimizing possible conflicts. The difficulty we have is that we are used to multiple teams working on multiple branches and managing merges using SCM tools and diff tools. Once you have a conflict in the OSB (specifically at a proxy level) then there is real problems.
    I am toying with the idea of locking mechanisms whcih I have not used in a while to avoid losing work with conflicts.
    Cheers

  • RoboHelp Server 8 - compatible with "source control system" ?

    Greetings,
    Using RoboHelp Server 8, is it possible to add in a "source control system," such as Subversion or Bazaar, to track updates and versions? Is there another "source control system" alternative?
    Also, is there a hosted RoboHelp Server 8 option, where Adobe provides, sets up and maintains the server hosting the RH?

    Hi again
    Well, sort of. Note that basic WebHelp and FlashHelp are capable of being merged. This allows a search to occur across the merged set. As I said earlier, merging can be automatically enabled or disabled in the RoboHelp Server. So theoretically, you could turn off merging at the server. Then you could publish ten projects. Perhaps you want two of those projects to be isolated islands where search only occurs in them individually. But for the other eight, you want a search to be performed across the eight projects. You could create a standard merge in this case and publish to the RoboHelp Server and have a search work across the eight merged files. You could also open each of the eight individually and search only that file set.
    At least that's my understanding of how it works. Perhaps fellow Adobe Community Professional and fellow Adobe Certified Instructor John Daigle will pop in and offer some clarification if I've muddied the waters.
    Cheers... Rick

  • Conditional build tags get out of sync with source control

    Hi all,
    I work on a team with two other people and we use RH 7 and
    Microsoft Visual Source Safe. We've been having a problem with our
    conditional build tags where one person will add, rename, or delete
    a tag, and although the author checks the tags back in right away,
    the system isn't "getting" the updated tag file when the other
    authors go into the help project. The only way we've been able to
    fix this is to have everyone delete their CPD files every time tags
    are added, renamed, or deleted, but this seems wacky, and I don't
    see any other messages about this problem in the forum. Are we
    doing something wrong? We've been having problems (errors) related
    to XPJ files being checked out by the first person to enter the
    project (posted in another message). Might this be the cause of our
    tag problem, too?
    Thanks in advance for any help,
    Lisa

    Hi, I understand about the mismatch…the problem is there shouldn’t be any mismatches, because the source documents didn’t change at all, and no updates were made to the html help topics in RoboHelp. The mismatches appear for no reason that I am aware of. They are very random and I can “fix” the mismatches by performing an “update” for a few linked topics, but then a few more mismatches randomly appear.
    I don’t use a Master Page…can you think of anything else I should look into?
    Thanks for your help.

  • VS 2012 shows one project in solution with source control hieroglyphs but not the other

    I have a solution that contains a database project, and an integration services project. The solution was add to a git repo that's based on a TFS 2013 team project. Team project was created, connected to with VS, synced, and the solution created within
    that (using the new button after connecting from Team Explorer). My issue now is that the database project shows files that are checked-in, modified locally and not committed, etc - but the SSIS project does not. I still have the option to commit changes to
    either project, but there's no visual queues on the one when there are changes. Any way to fix this?

  • Problem with jog control in canvas and timeline

    Hi, please help
    When I try to 'jog' (see the video frame by frame by pressing the L and R arrow keys), it will not work in the canvas/timeline. It seems to work just fine in the viewer, with any clips that have not been entered into the timeline yet, but when I jog in the timeline, I can hear the audio frame by frame, but not the video, it just remains static. This is quite a problem for fine editing... Does anyone know how to solve this or even have a clue how to try??
    Thanks

    Hi
    i wounder what people do with the source file after edit, they are taking up a lot of space on my computer. I can hardly bring myself to delete them, but neither can i save them, beacuse of space on Hdd. have thought of, only export those clip you have used in your timeline, uncompressed?

    If you don't need them at all, you can delete them. People usually store them in external drives if they need them.

  • Issue with Task Control Call back and Event Choice in WLI BPM 8.1

    Hi,
    I am using a Task Control Factory to create Task Control Instances in a loop
    and then
    create tasks and assign them to a predefined group. I have an event choice
    for two events
    waiting for the onTaskCompleted and onTaskAborted event call backs.
    I have two such operations (of task creation) in the same loop. For
    simplicity I have used two separate task factory controls for each of the
    tasks (because I even had worse problems using a single control factory for
    both tasks in the same loop).
    When I instantiate the process, through work list I am able to claim, start
    and complete the first task. When I try the same procedure (claim, start and
    complete) on the second task, the the event choice for the corresponding
    task receives 2 event call backs. First it receives the onTaskCompleted as
    expected, but then it also received another call back of the same type which
    displays the error on the server log as:

  • Start a counter with SOURCE, stop with GATE?

    I would like to START a DAQ-STC counter using the rising edge of the SOURCE
    input, and stop the counter with the rising edge of the GATE input. So I
    have two seperate digital lines I want to use to start and stop. Any pointers
    on how to do this? (Please respond via email also)
    Thanks,
    J. Apple

    Hi,
    Thanks for the reply, GarPar. I think I have solved the triggerring a counter with another with your and Stefan&Kekin's help. Now, I can generate two counter outputs (chip select and clock) as I wanted but I couldn't read the National Semiconductor differential sensor board output at the same time. I have attached the Labview I have written and scope screenshot which shows the chip select(signal 1), clock(sig 2) and output(sig 3). As I told previously, first I generate Chip select signal(1), then at falling edge I generate clock signal(it keeps going on). Finally, I try to read starting the output at falling edge of Chip select counter using clock counter output as the clock source for my read Timing.vi. BTW, Labview  gives an -200560 error after the Read.vi which is an timeout error although I don't need any external connection since I am taking both trigger and clock output internally. And I checked that I connect the output pin to the line 6 of Ni 9401 (many times )
    Error -200560 occurred at an unidentified location
    Possible reason(s):
    Wait Until Done did not indicate that the task was done within the specified timeout.
    Increase the timeout, check the program, and make sure connections for external timing and triggering are in place.
    Can you see any apparent problems in my labview program? Finally, I am using
    o ctr2 as Chip Select counter,
    o ctr0 as Clock 
    ctr2InternalOutput as clock trigger
    o line 6 as digital input
    ctr0InternalOutput as read clock
    ctr2InternalOuput as read trigger 
    which are shown in my Labview program. Thanks for your help in advance.

  • 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?
