Kumar,

It sounds like you are trying to use Atelier with client-side source control hooks against a shared development instance - is this correct?  If so, you are bound to experience frustration with this due to consistency issues.

Please review https://learning.intersystems.com/course/view.php?id=713 which discussed the 4 modes of development, which are to be avoided, and options available to you in a summary graphic from the training:

If you are going to be using Atelier with client-side hooks, I *strongly* recommend you move to giving each developer their own private instance to test against.

Kumar,

If you are using CCR then there are very specific  requirements in terms of development workflow which will provide assurances of no source loss, etc.  Please open a ticket with Support to discuss these specific concerns and considerations.

In summary, there can only be a single Disconnected BASE environments for each System, because the CCR Client Tools manage source concurrency within the Namespace, and if you have multiple BASE namespaces you have lost concurrency and therefore can lose source.  Atelier will work the same as Studio - you need a single Shared Dev Namespace using the CCR Client Tools (aka server-side source hooks) and at that point you can use either Atelier or Studio to edit the source in BASE.

IMPORTANT NOTE:  Server-side hooks will only work properly with Atelier if you are running a database version that includes CDS2924.  This is included in 2016.2.3+, 2017.1.2+ and 2017.2.0+ only.  If you are not sure if you have CDS2924 or not, please contact Support (if you use Atelier against a Shared Dev instance that doesn't have CDS2924 you don't have concurrency and therefore can lose source).

Hope that helps to get you started in the right direction :)

Geoffroy,

Welcome to Caché!  

Moving a database is really straightforward:

  1. Find the database definition in your 2007.1 instance in the System Management Portal
  2. Note the physical Directory where the cache.dat is located
  3. Shut down Caché and make a copy of the cache.dat file located in that Directory
  4. On your 2017.1 instance create a new database definition in the System Management Portal an point the Directory to the location of the copy of the cache.dat that you copied from your 2007.1 instance

Hope that helps!

See this thread which discusses several options for server-side Studio hooks for Git:

https://community.intersystems.com/post/are-there-server-side-git-studio...

NOTE - in my use-case I was looking for server-side hooks in order to allow concurrent server-based development, and I discovered that Git is very poorly suited for that purpose.  I ended up abandoning Git and using Perforce instead for my demo (Perforce is very well suited for server-side hooks with concurrent server-based development).  If you are you already operating in a single-developer / single instance setup and if you can move to one of the very latest versions of the product (2017.2.0+ or 2017.1.2+) then you should take a look at Atelier with client-side source control hooks.

For a thorough review of the different development models (private instance vs shared instance) and the different source control hook approaches (client-side vs server-side), I highly recommend that you watch the following session from last year' Global Summit:

Stephen,

An advantage to this is that the WRC will have a history of snapshots of your config and some basic operating data so that if you need to contact them about a performance issue, behavior change, etc, they could look back and see changes which have taken place in your system that might impact current behavior.  

Several large customers take advantage of this to make it easier to see trends in their instances.

HTH,

I have received a stream before as follows in my WebService client:

Method MyWebMethod(pAction As %String = "",  ByRef pFile As %FileCharacterStream = "", ByRef pDataSet As %XML.DataSet = "") As %xsd.base64Binary [ Final, ProcedureBlock = 1, SoapBindingStyle = document, SoapBodyUse = literal, WebMethod ]
{
...

}

I am able to use this method signature to both receive files from the web service as well as send files to the web service.

Hope that helps!
