• RoboHelp6 and TFS Version control - how to load and records local syncronize team members

  My team is using RoboHelp6 and Version control on TFS (Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 Team Explorer and Source Control Explorer).  We are looking for the right way to load a new project and the right way to get the team in harmony with the project. The process we have used to date is as follows:

  The head of the team takes the existing project and load into a local folder that is the local folder to be used by the control of Source of TFS. The head of the team opens the project through RoboHelp and then made a backup of all and generates a main page layout. The Leqader team uses then add it to Source code control option to add the project of TFS Source control. The members of the team and then create a local folder for use with the control of Source of TFS and team leader sends a complete project of its local folder and which is copied to the local folder. Member of the team then open RoboHelp and using Version control options to bind TFS (Team Foundation Server) and the Source code control folder where the project is located. The team members should now be able to edit the project.

  If I missed a step or a step added by mistake, please advise.

  Hi Bob.

  With RSC, there are a couple of tweaks to the procedure, as follows. TFS may work the same way.

  Before the authors try to open the project, they should make their initial connection to the db by RSC. All they need do is open the RSC Explorer, connect to the project and then close RSC. After that, they should be able to simply open the project in HR and have it connect on its own. (When they start with a copy of the project files, it does this a little simpler words. The project will immediately try to make the connection to source control).

• Which supplier Source control would you recommend for a single developer on a labVIEW project moderately important

  I have not used a front Source control provider.  My hope is that I don't have to deal with a large learning curve in using the basic features of a source control provider.

  Also curious is the most popular provider used by LabVIEW developers.

  Thank you.

  If you are getting started with Subversion (Tortoise SVN is the 'client' to a Subversion server), you have the choice between three options:

  1. Use a server Subversion maintained by your company or your University.  (I, fortunately, put at my disposal one).
  2. Use a commercial Subversion server.
  3. 'Rolling' (which means that the other host a server yourself, on your PC or on another PC, or simply use a 'local' repository).

  I listed them in the following order (according to me) that it is "desirable".  I, myself, would be enough worked to avoid Option 3, because it puts all the "eggs in one basket', in other words, you must assume the responsibility of not only keep your code Committed/updated the repository, but you must keep secure, backed up repository, and 'remote' (if your house burns down and the external unit containing the repository also goes up in flames you lost everything).

  I recently started a collaboration with a colleague in the Canada.  Because of institutional policies, I couldn't access our server local to Subversion, but found that assembled (www.assembla.com) offered a Subversion server access at a reasonable cost.

  Once you have identified a server, get your created repository and your project saved in the repository is not too difficult.  A practice I found works well is to organize the filing of LabVIEW, one project per repository projects, with the name of deposit is the name of the project.  I have adopted the model of trunk/branches/tags subfolder for the repository (i.e. the filing "Of Bob Project" will have a trunk, a branches and a subfolder of tags), with most of the activity taking place in the trunk.  I try to use the branches almost never, but that's another story.

  There are a number of tools to put "hooks" in Subversion in LabVIEW.  My personal preference is to do all my work of Subversion at the level of the Explorer of Windows files, validation and updating of entire projects to the end and beginning of work sessions (commit to the end, updated at the beginning).

• RoboHelp6 and TFS Version control and to exclude files

  Hello RoboSource Control community members. I asked this question on the side of RoboHelp and receive no response so I think it's off-topic there and decided to ask here in the hope of getting help.  My team is using RoboHelp6 and Version control on TFS (Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 Team Explorer and Source Control Explorer). We continue running in problems where the changes, in particular, creation or deletion of a folder cause the damaged project and we have to fall back to an earlier correct version. We can also not make the main layout to generate under version control as it blocks of RoboHelp. I have been checking these forums and so far, that I discovered that since I loaded several files that should have been excluded, they can be part of my problem. The files I loaded and should exclude are (projectname.cpd, projectname.pss, projectname.hhp). So my question is this: if I reload the TFS with project and exclude these files (projectname.cpd, projectname.pss, projectname.hhp) that we will be able to generate the available main under version control or not allowed under version control. Another question to ask; before you reload the project is what other files should be excluded when loading? The list have so far is: projectname.cpd projectname.pss projectname.hhp projectname.trl ehlpdhtm.js

  Thank you, Bob (no relation to John)

  Hi Bob.

  Your list of exclusions is what RSC does with our projects RH6, except that ours isn't .trl files. Don't know what it is.

• I want to use the expression editor control in a DLL VC ++ how?

  Hello

  as mentioned I want to use the expression editor control in my DLL written with VSC ++ 2005 MFC. But I came across some problems:

  -Start the Control Panel Power Options applet (go to start, settings, Control Panel, and then click Power Options).
  -Select the Hibernate tab, uncheck "Activate the hibernation", and then click OK. Although you might think otherwise, selecting never under "Hibernate" option on the power management tab does not delete the hiberfil.sys file.

• Is it safe to use Microsoft Tools and firewalls, and how to start.

  Windows 8

  Hi Muhammad,

  When a third party firewall, such as the Norton firewall is installed, WIndows will renounce its control over operations of the third-party firewall.  Until you actually uninstall your Norton product, the Windows Firewall is not available - you can not it activate or deactivate it, regardless of whether or not the Norton firewall is disabled.  This is done to prevent conflicts that might arise from having accidentally two firewalls running at the same time.  As long as you have installed Norton, this will be the only firewall on the system - disable so won't you firewall and no way to replace the Windows Firewall.

  Note: your system will be vulnerable to attacks from the internet and studies have shown that your computer may be infected within minutes.  Should never online without some kind of firewall to protect you.

  Hope this information helps

• HR HTML 9.02 and Source Control 3.1 will not save files in design mode, only the HTML view.

  We use RoboHelp 9.02 (just 9 and charged the next day so up-to-date, we 9,02) and Robo Source Control 3.1 and when we check a file and change the file, we can not save the file in Design view.  If we click on the HTML mode, we can save the file.  We have reproduced this on multiple files at the same time our computers accessing the server.  Now using RoboHelp HTML on a local project is functioning normally, only when we have access to the files on the server we select the HTML mode in order to save the topic.

  While this is an acceptable work around short term, we need this bug to get fixed unless someone knows of a checkbox somewhere that we must check in design mode to record and studied.

  I will be happy to provide you with any input and or test the additional fixes to help to fix this bug.  It is completely reproducible and constant on all tested subjects.  Source code control works insofar as this case the subject is verified by one the other cannot access the topic.  Once the topic is saved in HTML, then the subject can be archived and changes are visible by the other author.

  After the installation of Robo 9, Adobe Acrobat Professional 8 has been removed from the computer and MS Word 2000 did not work.  I've upgraded to Office/Word 2003 and I can now use Word 2003.  I have not attempted to reload Acrobat yet but that is next on my list.  Acrobat Professional was removed from these two computers during the installation.  Word 2000 exists only on the laptop.  I was in the queue to get updated later in the year, so they gave me a key and Word 03 seems to operate normally.  Did not check the Excel or PowerPoint 2000.

  Other news, you may be interested to know:

  • Both computers use Windows XP.
  • Both have office 2003.  -C' is because Word 2000 stopped working when Robo 9 has been installed.
  • Both have with max memory 32-bit operating systems.
  • Both have multiple monitors.
  • One is a laptop, the other is a desktop computer.
  • Both computers had 8.02 Robo? but RH8 was uninstalled before installing RH9.
  • 3.1 source code control has not been reinstalled on the server since version was the same that came with RH9
  • Source control has been reinstalled as a step of troubleshooting on the laptop without change.
  • RSO3 middle-tier service is running on all 3 computers and RSO3 server runs on the server pc.
  • Two users have administrator rights so all of the checkboxes are checked for access and control.

  Kind regards

  Having identified some problems in our global variable file in another project, I had a look at this project and found a few variables were empty, have a mystery character input or information applied to the variable fonts.  Rather than change back the variable only one digit or a character with no set form and text input in variables of the virgins, I deleted the unused variables of the project that just happened to 99% of the variables because we divided this part of the project in a booth along the project.  Remove the variables solved the problem where we had to switch from Design view to HTML view in order to save a topic.  I find this rather strange since none of the topics referenced stray variables.  Now we have only the variable of the version that refers to all subjects in the foot.  Everything seems to work fine now.  If you encounter this problem, have a good look at your file of global variables, line by line, to see if there is something other than text or numbers and delete everything except for the text.
