RE: Using a source code control system with...

Hi Khanh,
In regards to your compile error...
We found that an interesting difference between versions 2.0.D.x and 2.0.E.x
was with the first line of an exported .CEX file.
A la ...
2.0.D line 1: begin;
2.0.E line 1: begin CLASS;
It caught me out. Just insert or remove the word CLASS using a text editor
depending on your version of Forte.
As for version control, we have been retaining workspace export files
(wascally WEX files!) as backups and plan to make greater use of Baselining in
the repository. In terms of securing our environment, this approach
essentially meets our needs.

Help needed to use Source code control system

Hi all
I am working on Suse 9.2 and I use JSP and Servlet in my project.I like to use Source Code Control System (SCCS) . But I have no idea about that.I need some help to initiate my project.
Thanks in advance.
-jegan

I don't know this "SCCS" but I advice you to use Subversion as it is widely used open source standard.

Having Problem in access to Source Code Control System (URGENT help needed)

I am using JDeveloper 9i first time. The repository is in Oracle 8i.
I have established a connection from JDeveloper 9i to Oracle 8i repository running on Sun Solaris.
We have created a shared area and my colleague have checked-in some files. I have all access to shared area and I can see the checked-in files, but I am not able to check-out to the local folder.
I need help to resolve this problem urgently. Please consider this as an SOS call. Thanks

Hi,
The JDeveloper help system strongly recommends that you don't use shared workareas in this way. In fact, it's not possible in the beta release of JDeveloper to work this way at all, because there is no way for you both to get the files on to your file system in a way that JDeveloper will recognize.
The JDeveloper documentation on Repository is a very good source of information on the best way to organize developer workareas (particularly the section on best usage recommendations). The Repository is a very complex product originally intended for much more than just source control and there are many ways of using it. We have necessarily had to focus on a subset of this functionality in JDeveloper, mainly to keep the UI from being excessively complex for new users.
Here's a summary of the way we recommend working:
o Create a workarea in the RON which will be used as the basis of developer workareas (developers will not actually use this workarea directly). Make this workarea shared by granting access rights to the PUBLIC role.
o Each developer uses the Workarea wizard in JDeveloper (Source Control->Configure... in the beta release) to create a developer workarea based on the shared workarea.
Thanks,

Database source code control or version management

Hi all,
I work in a data warehouse development project, where database schema changes form majority of development work. As a development DBA I look after ensuring that all the database schema changes are version controlled properly.
We currently use CVS as a source code control system. We can use CVS well enough where stored procedures, functions and packages are involved. But when it comes to table definitions, we are finding use of CVS bothersome.
Hence I would like to know, which tool are you using for version control of schema changes. Any links to best practices on DB version control would be much appreciated.

I think Oracle have introduced something in 11g for version control. Also you can use third party Software like ERWIN. You can also explore Oracle Data Modelling software which is Beta currently.

How to use Source Code Control for Large Application?

Hi, All!
I would like to collect knowledge about "best practice" examples for using Source Code Control and project organization for relative large application (let's say approx 1000 SubVIs).
Tools used:
LabVIEW 8.0
CVS Server
PushOK CVS Proxy Client
WinCVS
With LabVIEW 8 we can organize large project pretty well. This described in article Managing Large Applications with the LabVIEW Project.
I have read this article too: Using Source Control Software with LabVIEW In this Article Source Safe used, but with PushOK all looks nearby the same and works (some tricks for compare function are required).
Example. Two developers working together on same project. Internally project is modular, so one developer will work with module "Analysis", and another one with "Configuration" without interferences. These modules placed into Subfolders as shown in example above.
Scenario 1:
Developer A started with modification of module "Analysis". Some files checked out. He would like to add some SubVIs here. So, he must also perform check out for the project file (*.lvproj), otherwise he cannot add anything into project structure.
Developer B at the same time would like to add some new functions into module "Configuration". He also needed to check out project file, but this file already checked out by Developer A (and locked). So, he must wait until lvproj file will be checked in. Another way is mark *.lvproj files as text files in PushOK, but then one of developers will get conflict message by checking in and then merging will be necessary. This situation will coming very often, because in most cases *.lvproj file will be checked out all the time.
Question: Which practice is better for such situation? Is Libraries better than folder for large project?
Scenario 2:
Developer C joined to the team. First, he must get complete project code for starting (or may be at least code of one Library, which assigned to him).
Question: How it can be done within LabVIEW IDE? Or WinCVS (or other SCC UI) should be used for initial checkout?
Scenario 3:
Developer D is responcible for Build. Developers A,B,C have added lot of files into modules "Analysis", Configuration" and "FileIO". For building he need to get complete code. If our project splitted into folders, he should get latest *.lvproj first, then newly added SubVIs will appear in Project Explorer, then he should expand tree, select all SubVIs and get latest versions for all. If Project organized in Libraries, he must do the same for each library, isn't?.
Question: Is this "normal way", or WinCVS should be used for this way? In WinCVS its possible with two mouseclicks, but I prefer to get all code from CVS within LabVIEW IDE recursively...
That was a long post... So, if you already working with LabVIEW 8 with SCC used for large project, please post your knowledge here about project structure (Folders or Libraries) and best practices, its may be helpful and useful for all of us. Any examples/use cases/links etc are appreciated.
Thank you,
Andrey

Regarding your scenarios:
1. Using your example, let's say both developers checked out version 3
of the project file. Assuming that there are only files under the
directories in the example project, when Developer A checks in his
version of the project, there will be new files in one section of the
project separate from where Developer B is working. Developer B,
notices that there is now a version 4 of the project. He needs to
resolve the changes so will need to merge his changes to the latest
version of project file. Since the project file is a text file, that is
easy to do. Where an issue arrises is that after Developer B checks in
his merged changes, there is a revision 5. When Developer A and B go to
make another change, they get the latest version which will have the
merged changes to the project file but not the referenced files from
both Developer A and B. So when A opens version 5, he sees that he is
missing the files that B checked in and visa versa. Here is where the
developers will needs to manually use the source control client and,
external to LabVIEW, get those new files.
Where libraries help with the above scenario is that the library is a
separate file from the project so changes made to it outside of the
project do not require the project to be modified. So this time, the
developers are using a single project again which time time references
two libraries. The developers check out the libraries, make changes to
the libraries, and then check those changes in. So when each developer
opens the project file, since it references the project file, the
changes to the library will be reflected. There is still the issue of
the new files not automatically coming down when the latest version of
the library is obtained. Again, the developers will needs to manually
use the source control client and, external to LabVIEW, get those new
files. In general, you should take advantage of the the modularity that
libraries provide.
2. As noted in the above scenario, there is no intrinsic mechanism to
get all files referenced by a LabVIEW project. Files that are missing
will be noted. The developer will then have to use the source control
provider's IDE to get the initial contents of the project (or library).
3. See above scenarios.

How to setup source code control with StarTeam

Hi,
Could anyone please tell me what should I do to set up the source code control?
My company use StarTeam Borland as a source code control tool. I try to set this as a Source Control for Labview by go to SourceControl category ins the Options setup, but I cannot select anything form the list of provider name. Do I have to do any extra step to make it right?
Best regards,

Source Code Control - Check in problems

Some of my vi's have been marked as "Server copy has changed" and some have even been marked with "both local and server copies have changed". When this is the case I cannot find any way to check in my VI without getting an error. Looking for a work around - help.

kh,
Which version of LabVIEW are you using? Built-in SCC have been rewritten from 6.0 to 6.1 and there are different issues related to each version.
With 6.0 I have encoutered a bug that wrongly checked most of my VIs as "local copy has changed" as soon as they are in memory with panel closed. I worked with NI Support and we found no workaround. Unfortunately, this behavior stayed even when the VIs were upgraded in 6.1 so that my problem was a dead end. I switched with great success to CVS, another source code control software.
I do not use 6.1 but if you do, make a search on NI's site and you'll find hits that address a SCC bug. If I remember correctly, checking out a VI, making a small change and checking it in again often solved the problem.

ood luck.

Source Code Control for Java development in 6.20

I am new to Java development. How do you control source code (versioning/transport) for Java development with the base R/3 is 6.20. I believe Java Development Infrastructure (JDI) is only available in 6.40. Is this the correct statement? Anyone that has work on 6.40 with Java can explain?
Let say we have this setup:
Applications are in 6.20
Portal will be EP 6.0
Do we need Web AS 6.40 to develop Java for Portal with base R/3 of 6.20. Or we can use Developer Studio to create Java accessing R/3 6.20 and display in Portal 6.0. If this is the case, how do you manage transport is you are not using JDI in 6.40.

Hi Nablan,
I believe you are development J2EE applications. JDI only runs with WebAS 6.40 which supports J2EE spec. 1.3. The developed J2EE archive will not be able to deploy to WebAS 6.20 which only supports J2EE 1.2 spec. So if you want to deploy the created software build from JDI and deploy it to WebAS 6.20, then the answer is unfortunately no.
But, if you just want the Portal be able to display your application in an iView inside, then maybe you can just develop and deploy your application to the WebAS 6.40 system. Then create an iView in your EP to point to the app in the 6.40 system. That way your app will not need to deploy to WebAS 6.20.

Source version control integration with siebel

Hi All,
I am trying to integrate siebel tools with third party version control i.e svn
I have passed the required paramters in srcctrl bat & set the option in tools accordingly.
Checout/checkin happening fine.But files not getting created in SVN repository
Does any one has working srcctl bat file for the same
Appreciate all your help

Nothing much yet, but I found a website that has the batch file for integration with SVN.
Guess I have to contact the author to get more details:

I need C source code to capture with NI1424. Camera Megaplus ES310T

There is no problem using Labview capturing frames. But i need to capture frames using C Builder. I would be greatfull if you supply me with source code or dll.

If you still need it, you can download NI-IMAQ 2.5.1 from the following link: All Versions - Vision.
I ran the installer for NI-IMAQ 2.5.1, and Borland C++ support is one of the options that shows up in the feature selection step of the installation. In order to program in Borland, make sure this option is selected. I also noticed that no Borland example programs are included with the driver.
Your best option is to install support for Microsoft Visual C++ as well, and to take a look at how those examples were written. They should show up in the "sample" directory once installed. Unfortunately, Borland
is not supported by the current version of IMAQ. I searched for other examples online, but did not find any.
The library file for Borland can be found in the "C:\Program Files\National Instruments\NI-IMAQ\Lib\Borland" directory. This file will be needed when programming with Borland. Please refer to the NI-IMAQ User Manual and NI-IMAQ Function Reference for more information.

Can I use a VS-700C control surface with Logic Pro?

Hi,
Does anybody know if I can use a Roland VS-700C control surface and/or VS-700R audio interface with Logic Pro?

If it supports the Makie protocol, it might work... but I wouldn't purchase one on that basis without trying it first.

Using ipod nano on a system with an ipod mini

I already have an ipod mini working with windows on our computer at home and my brother has just purchased an ipod nano which as yet is uninstalled. We have to use the same computer.
Will installation for him simply be a matter of plugging his ipod nano into the system, or will we have to install from the CD that comes with the nano? If we do that, what impact will that have on my library/system that is already installed?
Has anyone had to do this - I'd really appreciate some advice on how best to approach this.
Cheers.

As long as you have Itunes 4.9 or higher it should just be plug and play, no CD required. If you don't have 4.9 or higher I would recommend downloading instead of using the disk http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
