After you create a new object or change an existing object on your local workspace/solution, you can commit the object to the SVN source control system so that other developers can reach it.
To commit an object to the SVN source control system:
-
Right-click the object (or the library that contains the object) in the System Tree and select SVN Commit from the pop-up menu.
-
In the commit dialog box that displays, input a comment and click OK to confirm committing the object.
PowerBuilder starts uploading the object to the SVN source control system. After the object is uploaded successfully, the icon in front of the object will change from a plus sign (
) to a green dot (
), indicating that the object on the local
computer is in sync with the object on the server.
If conflicts are detected, you will be prompted in the output view and will have to resolve the conflict manually. See the section called “Resolve conflicts” for details.
If you remove an object from your local workspace/solution, you use the same instructions as above to commit the change and remove the object from the SVN source control server.
Note
If you are prompted for conflicts when committing a removed object, you should first restore the object using the Revert feature of an SVN client (such as TortoiseSVN), and then remove the local object and execute SVN Commit again.
The output (including error and warning) of a variety of operations (SVN Commit, SVN Update, SVN Revert, Refresh etc.) displays in the Output window. Currently, lines in the Output window provide no links to open the object when you double-click on that line, and although the pop-up menu provides the options Edit and Edit Source, they will not open an object in a painter or the Source editor.
