Hi,
We are currently looking at the possibility of moving over to RAMP and I was wondering if any current RAMP clients could tell me how they are managing version control for any custom code (reports etc.)? My understanding; and please correct me if I am wrong; is that RAMP doesn't integrate very well with version control systems/
Thanks
Kerry
It's not very nice, that's for certain. Prior to Citrix the ability to reference local files from the RAMP apps was so problematic that I hosted my custom files on RAMP, and would periodically copy them down over a folder managed by Git on my local machine. Now with Citrix I'm able to reference those local files directly without much fuss.
The other thing you might want to keep under source control (and I do) are your Infomaker custom library files: those I do have to remember to copy down to a local source controlled folder after making changes.
Hi, Thanks for the reply. Yes I gathered it wasn't the cleanest process which is a shame as we should all be advocating best practice.
You don't think it massively hinders what you are doing though?
No, it doesn't, it just means I need to be a bit more disciplined about keeping up with it, as I can't just press a button while in the middle of my editing session.
Great, thanks for taking the time to reply.
