Copy field and do not make editable

$
0
0

All, I am currently copying a field from one item type to another via a relationship field. The issue I am having is implementing the copy so that the field is not editable in the copied form from the relationship field. The field is currently just copied and then locked once you perform the first state transition (Unspecified -> Draft). I am curious if any of you have had to implement something similar to this scenario and what your implementation was.

java.SQL.Exception - not full-text indexed

Hi,

I've successfully installed Integrity Server 10.3 with SQL Server 2008 R2. The server runs but in the server.log file, there is the following exception:

 

ERROR [mksis.IntegrityServer] * * * * ERROR * * * * (0): java.sql.SQLException -- java.sql.SQLException: Cannot use a CONTAINS or FREETEXT predicate on table or indexed view 'Text3' because it is not full-text indexed.

 

I searched a by the Integrity documentation avec DB requirements and settings, but found nothing related to full-text indexing. This is not also a feature or setting of SQL Server.

 

Could someone tell me a bit more about this exception? How to fix it?

 

Thanks.

Traceability between PTC Integrity and Enterprise Architect

$
0
0

Hi,

 

we want to create a connection between Integrity Items from PTC and packages/ elements from Enterprise Architect. Both tools have IDs with which they can be identified clearly. In the forum I read that there are several possibilities to get data out of PTC Integrity such as using command line scripting, running reports, using gateways, web services, API or trigger scripts.

 

My question is, which of these possibilities would you suggest when you want to connect one integrity item with one or more Enterprise Architect package/s or element/ s. Is there a way using a standard feature of PTC Integrity which helps the developer to get that task done with less changes in Integrity or do you suggest a self-made program which writes in each tool the specific ID/s from the opponent's tool to help the user for example to find the suitable UML diagram in the Enterprise Architect for an already open requirement integrity item of PTC Integrity faster?

 

 

Thanking you in anticipation.

Hi @all,

 

is there any way to improve the usabilty of a si_project-field? We would like to have at least two things:

 

1. the possibility to prefill the field with a known part of a path. If users open this field than they shouldnt have to click through the whole project-structure.

2. filtering for names, labels or checkpoints in the dialog where you're clicking through the structure.

How to get user confirmation from a script?

$

0

Hey all,

 

In one the scripts I'm working on I would like to get the user's confirmation on wether or not to perform an action. To explain the background a little: when a user moves a certain item to a completed state, I want to run a check on all that item's children and if those are not yet completed, *ask* the user if he wants integrity to move them to completed for him/her.

 

Can anyone point me in the right direction on how to present the user with a popup in his/her GUI, ask him a YES / NO question and capture the result in my script?

 

Possibly relevant info: We're running Integrity 10.0

There is a script command called getTransactionContext in the Server Bean.  In the description, it mentions a map that can be used to pass information from one script to the next during a transaction.  I cannot find how to set or add to this map however.

 

Would someone please let me know how to add to this map?

 

Thanks

proxy-settings in mksclient.properties

$

0

Hi @all,

 

if i want to install an integrity-client with silent install i#m using the mksclient.properties-file. Since some weeks we're using a proxy, so i want to set the proxy-settings also at install-time. We have a split-setup: source at port 7001 and integrity at port 7003. The proxy is used only for source. But i didnt find an option to setup the client vie mksclient.properties for using the proxy only for source. MKS_PROXY_GLOBAL_USER=true is setting all connections to use the proxy, which we cannot use, because we want only one connection. There is no Option to set only one connection to the Proxy.

 

Any hints? Thanks,

 

Jens

MKS Source changes binary files automatically, how to prevent this?

MKS Source changes binary files automatically, how to prevent this? (migrated thread) Posted: Dec 8, 2011 7:54 AM

   andreas.ulbricht2    Posts: 47   Registered: Nov, 2007

We made the experience that MKS Source changes content of binary files, probably since we have upgraded to MKS2009 version. The change of the regarded binary files seems to be triggered by the archive type of these files, which is set automatically to text by the MKS source system. The workaround provided by MKS to prevent change of (binary) files after standard check in and check out actions consists of inclusion of the type of file characterized by the file extension into a policy. This is absolutely not practicable for us, as we cannot check any file by extension whether it is changed by the MKS system or not and include it in a policy. Furthermore the described behaviour is absolutely not what we expect from a version control system. We expect from a version control system that whatever file is put under version control, this file is NEVER changed automatically or non-transparently by the system. Does anyone know a method how we can prevent generally the automated change of whatever files by the MKS Source system ?
Please be aware that the same can happen or happens on your MKS source system without that you notice it.

Hello Andreas,

Upon further research, I see that you have already contacted Integrity Support, and that you are already on the feature request, which I have resubmitted for review.

Regards,
Kael

Hello Kael,

after several attempts to contact our key account for this subject, yesterday we had a TelCo with a senior supporter. After this conference our impression is that the problem is understood at MKS. A workaround that represents a solution for us could not be provided and in our understanding will not be provided until the RFC is implemented according to what we have understood in that TelCo. If an RFC is to be implemented and when this will happen is completely open. Anyway I do not understand why our key account or a substitute of him does not reply for two weeks when we have a major problem caused by MKS Source that endangers the delivery of our products.
The addressed topic is crucial for us. If the problem cannot be solved, MKS Source might be useless as version management tool in our company.
As support cannot provide a solution, any solution found by other users might be very helpful for us that's one reason why I post additionally here.
I assume that the problem we have detected casually might be as crucial for a whole lot of other MKS customers as it is for us. But the other customers probably do not know about this problems, because they still do not have detected it. That`s another reason why I post here.

Cheers !

The initial description of the problem is not correct. The behavior is the same since a couple of releases.
Binary Archive Files get's never changed by us. The Line Terminator get's changed for text archives depending on the policy which is set globaly / per project or per sandbox or defined for a specific type (f.e *.bin) or by a trigger.
To prevent this the Users should be trained to check in Binary Files (f.e *.bin's) as binary archive and not as text archives. To prevent this there is a trigger which checks the extensions and could give a message that this archive which is going to be created by the user should be a binary archive instead of a text archive.
In addition there is the possibility to update/change the archive from text to binary (on db-backend) to prevent this behavior with the line terminators.

The algorithm checks every newly created archive as this is a text or a binary archive. It is not possible (never) to cover all files that this algorithm works as - depending on the customer- expected.

There are a couple of possibilitys to prevent this behavior which is known since a long long time.

We are currently working with you on a possible resolution for this behavior

Hi Andreas,

we have the same issue with source files (ASCII) which we secure before check-in using file checksums. I agree that non-transparent changes of files should at least be made optional using appropriate server settings. This issue is considered critical for us as well.

We started computing the checksums anew on check-out in our test automation. Files where the checksum differs from the stored value are reported as we need to make sure that changes are solely based on this whitespace issue and not due to other file manipulation.

We strongly urge MKS to resolve this issue by at least making it optional using an appropriate server setting.

If you don't want files to be modified by MKS, why not always check them in as binary files? This can be configured through a policy
si.AddMembers.dataFormat=binary

To make diffs and merges, use an external like BeyondCompare or WinMerge.

Keyword expansion is not possible with binary files, but that would be a modification of the file again, so I expect you want to avoid that anyway.

Hi

 

I'm migrating my MKS Integrity Client 2009 SP5 on Solaris zoned server to a VMWARE ESX hosted Linux Debian 7 machine.

 

Suprise during testing performance beetwen the 2 machine using "si viewRevision command" (no I/O activity, only tcp connections to the same server) test cicle: Linux client is 8 time slower than Solarix box!

 

Any suggestion to improve Linux deployment?

 

Thanks

Hello

 

I am working at java tool which connects at the mks source integrity server that add new members in an mks project.

I read the following documentation

{

}

 

and I found java sample code only for connection with the server:

}catch (APIException e) {

###

{

 

IntegrationPointFactory ipf = IntegrationPointFactory.getInstance();CmdRunner cmdRunner;

try {

cmdRunner = ipf.createLocalIntegrationPoint().getCommonSession()

.createCmdRunner();

 

cmdRunner.setDefaultHostname(

"myserver");

cmdRunner.setDefaultPort(7001);

cmdRunner.setDefaultUsername(

"IntegrationUser");

cmdRunner.setDefaultPassword(

"secret");

 

e.printStackTrace();

}

 

However I have not found in the above documentation a sample for adding members in mks source integrity server using the mks java api.

Would you give me a sample code that do that or pointing me another documentation for the mks source integrity java api ?

 

 

 

 

 

 

Best Regards,

Implementer and SQL DDL thoughts/standards?

$

We are on the System i (aka AS/400) using Implementer.  We are transitioning from defining our physical and logical files using DDS to using SQL DDL to define SQL Tables and Views.  I would like to get some thoughts and opinions from other users of Implementer that are using SQL DDL as to how they structure their SQL DDL script source members within Implementer and promote them through their various environments?

 

Any input/thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Implementer Promotion of Physical Files Documentation

Can someone provide me with detailed documentation on the process that Implementer uses to promote Physical Files?  I am very interested in how it handles the optimized promotion process.  Our shop currently handles the promotion of physical files to the Production environment manually by running CL conversion programs to add/remove triggers, add/remove journaling, and saving/copying of the data.  The general feeling is that the Implementer process is not fast/efffecient enough so I would like to review what the detailed Implementer process does.

Modular Client Side Triggers

$

0

I'm using client side triggers, and I'd like to modularize my js code, but I can't figure out how to include another js file from with in the js file called by the trigger.  For example:

 

File : /Custom/library/ValueAdd.js

<code>

function ValueAdd (key)

{

     var k = key;

 

     var obj =

      {

          getKey : function ()

          {

               return k;

          }

     };

     return obj;

}

</code>

 

File : /Custom/TriggerFile.js

<code>

load("/library/ValueAdd.js"); // Command used by Rhino to load external files, doesn't seem to work here

var va = new ValueAdd("something");

</code>

 

When the map a trigger to the TriggerFile.js and the trigger is executed, I get an error "load is not defined".  It's possible that I have the path to the file wrong, but it doesn't even get that far.  How do I "import" ValueAdd.js into TriggerFile.js?
