JDev VSS Extension / News: Recent posts

The VSSExtension fires an event after every VSS Operation performed. This means that there is a possibility to perform additional automated actions, by extending the listener interface.

Example:

import org.jdev10.vss.api.VSSOperationListener
import org.jdev10.vss.api.OperationEvent

...
public void operationPerformed(OperationEvent e) {
switch (e.getOperationType()) {
case e.ADDED:
...
case e.CHECKED_IN:
...
case e.CHECKED_OUT:
...
case e.UNDO_CHECKOUT:
...
case e.GET_LATEST:
...
}
}
...

This is just a small bugfix release which contains a fix for bug ID 1535734 (SS Add adds files to wrong path in VSS)

This is to be concidered a bugfix release. Some new features have been added, but nothing major.
Users of 0.3 version, should however upgrade immediatelly. There were some critical bugs in the previous version, which are now resolved.

Through great help from Shay Shmeltzer and Brian Duff of the Oracle Corporation, this error has now been resolved.
Installing this extension from the JDeveloper Update center is now possible.

Enjoy!

The extension seems to malfunction on some computers if installed through the JDevelopers Update center.
I am currently in dialog with both Shay Shmeltzer and Brian Duff of the JDeveloper development team to figure out why.

If you are having problems installing this extension, follow these instructions:
* Download the zip onto your computer
* Unpack
* Find the org.jdev10.vss.VSSExtension.0.3.jar file, and copy it to your jdeveloper installation folder under /jdev/extensions/
* Restart JDeveloper. The extension should now be active.

Shay Shmeltzer from the Oracle corporation will be notified of this as soon as possible, and the extension will be available on the JDeveloper update center.
