NWDI SYNC OPTION

[Former Member]

we have a wd java application running fine in the portal.

now i have to make some changes to it.

there are lot of errors and warnings in the project which i have created by importing the track.

(i think guy before me had changed/deleted the code and made the track dirty )

i have sync the project to earlier date (1 year back, cause there is no developement from that time, and there are no errors) and tried to edit it.

when i tried to edit it, it is throwing the following error.

can not check out as the files are out of sync.

if this is the situation then what the sync option is used for?

plz tell how i can use sync option and check out the code to make changes.

Hi,

The Sync option is mainly for syncing the DC as well as Dependant DC's, and I am sure it is not used for sync it to some older date.

I feel if you post your question in NWDI Forums you will get a better answer and also solutions to your problem.

Best Regards

Tushar.

Yes Do the DC Sync from NWDS project.

Select the project in NWDS,Right Click, Development Component=>Sync Sources...

This one will sync the project. Once sync is done close the project and then reopen the project.

Most of the errors ur getting will go off.

Its common that we see lot of errors in NWDS,mostly these occur due to Sync or some other issues. (I dont think your other developer has created these errors, so dont revert your code. Once u sync the errors go off.

Let us know what kind of errors ur getting before reverting the code.

my problem got solved.

just do like this

if u want to roll back the changes to a previous date do as following.

first sync to a date where u think ur code is fine.

now got to navigator tab.

copy and save src folder to desktop.

now sync to present date and go to navigator tab and paste the three folders (which are there in the src folder from desktop) to src folder .

while copying it will ask u for activity and checkin just press ok.

ur done u just rolled back the changes to a previous date.

this worked for me.

solved my problem.

Follow the below steps to solve the problem:

1.Sync your code to earlier date and time till it was working perfectly.

2. Go to navigator and copy src folder of your DC and save it in your hard disk (e.g. desktop)

3. As in older code you are not suppose to check out so Sync your latest code from NWDI

4. copy all the three folders of your src folder(configuration,packages,mimes) which you have saved in your hard disk.

5. Again Go to Navigator and right click on src folder of your DC and paste all three copied folders into it. It will ask for new activity to create.

6. check in and Deploy that activity and you are done.
