Android Question B4A 3.2 & SVN

[EddyW]

We are working with 2 persons on the same project in B4A and using TortoiseSVN to manage the code.

Because version 3.2 saves the tabs you have open in the IDE we have problems with TortoiseSVN.
We both work in different parts of the code but because it saves the open tabs to the *.b4a file we have lot of version conflicts when we update/merge the code.

Think it would be better to split the projectfile (*.B4A) the Main Activiaty (main.bas ??) and the file that hold the settings of the open tabs for each developer separate files.

For now we remove all code to a 2th activity and the main opens only the 2th activity or does anyone has a better solution for this?

The difference is in the tab order which is now saved. I will add an option to save these settings in a different file.

 

[EddyW]

Thx that would solve most of our update/merge errors.

 

[EddyW]

Is this option available in version 3.5?

 

[Erel]

No. This is not a simple change and it is planned to be included together with "conditional compilation" feature.

Is this hidden somewhere very sneaky?

 

[Erel]

This issue has been fixes in v3.80. All the "dynamic" settings are stored in the meta file which you should not add to the source control.

Hmmm, it's working now - ModuleX= was being reordered in the project file and the .meta order was always straight 1,2,3,etc. For some reason it wasn't changing... I was reordering tabs to check for changes then removed an image file to tidy up in the process and after that, and re-adding and removing the meta from source control, the meta file is changing. This was a project started in a version previous to 1.8, used in 1.8B and now in the 1.8 release version so it might be a hiccup due to that.
