Re: Version Control for IBM i with RDi and Subversion

Frank,

Thanks for the nice tutorial.

Curiousity question:
What is your plugin for SVN doing differently than Subclipse already did ?

I may be missing something subtle :-)

subject: [WDSCI-L] Version Control for IBM i with RDi and Subversion

Hello *ALL,

outside of the IBM i world it is best practice to use Version Control Systems to handle the integrity of the sources of a software project. There are open source VCS like Subversion, Git and Mercurial as well as commercial ones like ClearCase. All those VCS can be used for Java, PHP, .NET and other projects because they provide connectors for the IDE`s used for such projects.

But what about Version Control for RPG and COBOL projects on IBM i? My strongest suggestion is to use a change management system. All your needs will be satisfied with such a change management system. But those change management systems are not for free. You have to pay a fee and depending on the software vendor this can be a lot of money.

For those ones of you who are not able to spend money for a change management system we have written a step by step tutorial to show you a way to use Version Control for RPG and COBOL projects on IBM i. All you need is RDi, Subversion and our next free plugin iSVN.

Enter the download area of our homepage and download the document "Version Control for IBM i". All necessary steps will be described detailed.

The document "Running a Subversion or Git Server natively on IBM i", which you can download in our download area too describes how to install a Subversion and/or Git Server natively on IBM i. With this there is no need to use a Subversion server on other platforms.
