#Change Management

Hi, colleagues!

Suppose you have large set of cubes, pivots and dashboards in your DeepSee solution.

Then you change the level, measure or dimension in the cube and is there any way to test that your new input didn't break current pivots, dashboards, etc?

How to test this?

How do you test your DeepSee solutions?

I understand this is a rather broad topic (and at times involves religious sentiments) yet I would like to look at it from the Caché perspective:

Hi,

I'm wondering... what solutions if any, have users adopted in order to track changes made to the System Default Settings that hold environment-specific component settings ?

Do you manage to control access to, and track historical changes of, these values using Source Control system ??

thanks-

Steve

Hi, Community!

How do you store the source files of your Caché project? What is the directories structure? What are the benefits?

I prefer the following structure:

/cls/package/subpackage/class.cls

/mac/package/routine.mac

/int/package/routine.int

/inc/macro.inc

/dfi/folder/sample.pivot.dfi

Example

Benefits:

• folders are packages.
• easy to understand what type of sources are in the project.

What is your approach?

Hi All,

Am working on integrating our code with source control.

To make some security, I want to ask a password prompt from the studio itself while check in and checkout a code.

Is it possible to ask input in the studio like login page. Please suggest me.

Thanks,

Archunan K.

This is the second part of my long post about package managers in operating systems and language distributions. Now, hopefully, we have managed to convince you that convenient package manager and rich 3^rd party code repository is one key factor in establishing of a vibrant and fast growing ecosystem. (Another possible reason for ecosystem success is the consistent language design, but it will be topic for another day.)
