share a flex project into DTR

[Former Member]

Hi experts,

has somebody experience to share an flex project into DTR? As I know sharing is only possible for DC types supported by SAP.

Though in NWDS there is a mechanism ('Convert project to Development Component or 'Migrate into Software Component'') possibly to fit this task but it fails always because of, i think, not supported DC type (there are no Dc type for Flex development).

But how can I get my flex source code into DTR in order to maintain, version and sharing with other developers?

Best Regards.

Hi Cemal,

as a "workaround" and to make it shareable via NWDS, you can try to create a DC of type "Text" and copy the flex-contents inside (e.g. in folder src). A "Text" DC should not interfere with flex.

hi,

DTR can be used as a standalone application. it serves as cvs or svn.

Hi Cemal,

if managing versions and sharing code is the only thing you want to do with your Flex resources you can use the [DTR Command line tool|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/8f/88d93f130f9115e10000000a155106/frameset.htm] to do this.

Your are then independent of NWDS (allthough the tool is delivered with NWDS). You'll have to build and deploy your applications yourself and also keep track of the deployed versions.

If you are using NWDS for your development, use the DTR Perspective to create new DTR clients. Add your (Flex) Project folders under the local DTR client and upload the resources. Your colleges should be able to synchronize these sources, when using the same DTR Client name on their machnie. See [Configuring DTR Clients|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/17/73a43f4aa1330ee10000000a114084/frameset.htm] and [Working with the DTR|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/83/74c4ce0ed93b4abc6144aafaa1130f/frameset.htm].

Hope this helps a little.
