Check in / Check out of code?

[Former Member]

Hi Guys,

I'm still new to portal development and still struggle with the jargon that goes with it.

What does it mean / what do you do when you "check in and check out" your code?

I take it you "import" your code from sumwhere when you want to start developing and "export" it back to there when you are done at the end of the day?

Could you please refer me to links or explain how this gets done?

Thank you

Chris

Hi,

If you want to modify or make changes to the Object then you first need to CHECKOUT and make the changes to the object and then CHECKIN again inorder to save the changes to that Object.

When you checkout then the object will be in the Inactive status and when you checkin then it will be in the Active status .

Hiii Christian,

When u do any type of devlopment in NWDS an activity is created for a particular object .

Now Group of developers r wrking on the same object . If first Developer wants to edit something in code , he will first check in the activity . After completion of editing dev1 will Check out the activity .

And Now dev2 can start wrking on the same object by check in the activity.

This is a type of Anchoring for a objct. Means the same object r editing by diffrent dev by this process.

if u have any doubt, kindly revert back

thanks:

Rewrads r welcome.
