Sharing Code/Projects

[bennanio]

I'm having a bit of trouble figuring out the best way to do this. How do I have more than a single developer work on a project and share their work? I understand the component object libraries etc. and see how we can share building blocks like that. I also found that you can import whole screens which is a starting point. Has anyone else shared a complete project for simultaneous development? I'm trying to figure out a way to merge two versions of a project safely/efficiently.

Hi Bennanio,

I've never shared multiple projects, but I do have some scripting files which are auto-generated externally from iX developer. To update these files, I usually copy the new files into the project directory, overwriting the old ones, then tell iX developer to rebuild the project.

I think the biggest bumps would be merging things like the multilanguage support. You could try using some text-compare tool with the ability to merge changes to help deal with this. Merging screens would be a more interesting challenge, but once again, I think you could merge the xml files.
