Exclusive Checkout - Web Dynpro codes from NWDI

[Former Member]

HI, SDN fellows.

I imported the SC Configuration, and created the project of the DC. When I try to open the file, just wanna to view the codes (not plannig to change them). There is a pop up message with check box - "Exclusive Checkout".

What is the meaning of "check" or "uncheck" the "Exclusive Checkout"?

In my case (just wanna to view the codes, not planning to change them), should I "check" or "uncheck" it?

Thanks,

Kent

HI,

when you try to touch any file in DC which belongs to NWDI track, NWDS will ask you to create activity to insure you are not going to make any changes accidently..

when you just want to see the code, and have no intention to touch source, then just dont checkout it.

In your case don't check out anyhting, if pop up comes then just cancel it.

whatever Marlo said about exclusive check out is right.

not only you can exclusively check out your file but a complete DC also. so when you are working on any DC nobody would able to touch it, it becomes read only for every other user except you.

Hi there

What is the meaning of "check" or "uncheck" the "Exclusive Checkout"?

When you're working in a development team the "Eclusive Checkout" locks the object, so others can't make accidental changes.

If you're alone doesn't make a difference at the checkout-in process.

Hi

Check-in/check-out model

Files are checked out from DTR and modified locally

Files are checked in again when change is completed

Upto my knowledge ,you have to check out and see the code

Thanks,
