JBuilder source control

[davidchardonnet]

Hello,

I need an easy-to-use source control system for JBuilder 4 for Windows.
If you know one good product, just answer this message.

Thank you very much

David

If you get a plugin you can use Visual SourceSafe. It is not the best but it is easy to setup and use. Wushutwist

Thank you Wushutwist

I installed it just like you said. But I have a little trouble by using it:
I have a JBuilder4 project I try to insert into VSS by this tool.
1°- Is it possible to add the *.jpr project into VSS? (if it is possible, I don't know how to do it)
2°- When I add the first *.java file into VSS, I have the full path of the file added to the VSS default project path (and that's great). But for the second and following files, the addin seems to forget it has to add the full path of the file into VSS too.

example:

1°- In JBuilder

I have a project called Applet.jpr which has the following hard drive directory structure
d:\project
sources
packages
Igraph
ListeFY
Structs


2°- For inserting it into VSS

Source Safe Projects -> Select Project...
I select the project $/Project in which I have the following project tree already created
$\Project
sources
packages
Igraph
ListeFY
Structs

I right-click on each file, and select SourceSafe ->Add file...

What I expect

I expect that every time I click on Add file, the addin recalls the same path in D:\Project as in $/Project.
For example to put the files in D:\Project\sources\packages\Igraph into $/Project/sources/packages/Igraph
and the same for D:\Project\sources into $/Project/sources

What I get

The first file I insert into VSS, the good path is provided so, it's great
But for the following files, the paths are like this, for example

D:\Project\sources\packages\Igraph is inserted into $/Project

Can you help me please?

Thank you
David

Have you set the working directory for your root project folder in sourcesafe? If not goto the project Folder and right-click, select Set Working Folder... and browse to your Project Folder. Now if you select the Igraph folder and add files, only new files in that directory should appear.

Note: this might sound slightly confusing since you named your root project folder "project" and VSS uses this same terminology. Anywhere I refer to project I am refering to your folder. Wushutwist
