source code control in executable

[Svendsen]

LabVIEW 8 and 8.20 offers a connection to a scc server. I was thinking of making a tool wich could get versions from the scc server. But as I see it, it is not possible to create an executable which will be able to connect to a user specified scc server, since the vis uses the development setup. Are these VIs only for development use?

SCC stands for Source Code Control and is such designed to work with source code within a compatible development environment.

Perhaps an executable file can be stored as an auxiliary file to the source code, I dont know.

If you want an exe to be able to retrieve the latest version of a certain plug-in from a SCC provider, then I have no idea how this would be implemented (apart from manually of course).

I think you will need to implement the correct protocol within the executable yourself....

Anyone else know more?

That's something I need to remember.

Has some really nice applications in testing.....
