I'm currently maintaining a CVS repository for source control. There is a push afoot to move to StarTeam. It has already been purchased and is a corporate standard for most projects. I was told by the corporate owners of the StarTeam servers that there is no known way to do a complete migration of our current CVS repository to StarTea...
I need to migrate a large project from StarTeam 5 to Subversion, and I'd like to keep snapshots of (at least) 5-10 of the major releases. I've considered the following: Manual or scripted export/import of each snapshot. Advantages: straightforward, easy to select labeled/dated versions. Disadvantages: time-consuming, does not preser...
I have a CVS repository on my local workstation. I've demonstrated to my employer that version control is a great idea. Alright! So now I want to migrate my CVS history from my local workstation onto a real server. I have installed CVS on the server and it is working. Now, can I just move my repository files? Or do I have to do some so...
Hello, So, maybe I'm a bit old-school, but when we created websites in the past, we'd develop the site on a development server, then publish or promote the pages and files to the production server. This has always seemed to be a good way to go so that users didn't see messed up pages or (God forbid) a downed server because one of us sc...
I have two machines... a development machine and a production machine. When I first brought my rails app onto the production server, I had no problem. I simply imported schema.rb by running rake db:schema:load RAILS_ENV=production. All was well. So, then on my development machine, I made some more changes and another migration, and t...
When there are one of more columns that reference another, I'm struggling for the best way to update that column while maintaining referential integrity. For example, if I have a table of labels and descriptions and two entries: Label | Description ------------------------------------ read | This item has been read READ | You read thi...
I have the following rails migration: create_table :articles do |t| t.integer :user_id, :allow_null => false t.integer :genre_id, :allow_null => false t.string :url, :limit => 255, :allow_null => false t.string :title, :limit => 60, :allow_null => false t.text :summary, :limit => 350, :allow_null => false t.integer :votes_co...
Does anyone know of any specific DSL implementations used to import legacy Oracle database schemas. I have tried to just run db:schema:dump on my existing db I want to port to a new ruby app. However, the rake dies about halfway through with out any error. It kinda just locks up. I started looking for the best way to tackle this and foun...
I'm a long-time ActionScript 2 user, now getting started with ActionScript 3. The one thing I'm missing is an easy way to duplicate the functionality of AS2's MovieClip.onReleaseOutside. It is almost always necessary to implement this event, otherwise you get funny bugs like flash thinks your mouse is down when really it's up. Accordin...
I'm looking for tutorials or walkthroughs for converting DTS packages into the new SSIS 2005. Any one knows. ...
This project is the probable first step in migrating a large CMS from Classic ASP to .Net. I'd like to use LINQ for querying the DB. Does anyone have any ideas for strategies to make this happen? I understand this is a vague question at this point, but I'm gathering information. Thanks, KevDog ...
I have a really large VB6 code base with a ton of 3rd party controls. Want to move it to .NET. Rewriting it is out of question - the client sees no value in spending money to get the same thing. Moving to .NET with the built-in upgrade wizard is basically a non-starter. Has anyone tried the VB Migration Partner from http://www.vbmigr...
I have a bunch of JUnit 3 classes which extend TestCase and would like to automatically migrate them to be JUnit4 tests with annotations such as @Before, @After, @Test, etc. Any tool out there to do this in a big batch run? ...
I've been spoiled by ActiveRecords. So I'm on the lookout for migration system that can be applied to SQL Server, and either is executed as Java application, or a Win32 Executable. (Of course further compatibility with other DB's and host OS's is welcome.) The real desire is having a clear schema change application with roll back, ide...
I am evaluating VisualSVN for me and a small team of developers. I set it up on the server (VisualSVN server) without problems and installed TortoiseSVN and VisualSVN in order to integrate it in Visual Studio 2008. So far, it works well and we use it for the development of our main application. I've heard good things about the new versi...
I have just converted a project from Visual Studio 2003 to 2005 and although most of it 'converted' fine, I have a series of STL errors from the following line: void SomeFn( std::vector<CSomeObject*>::iterator it, std::vector<CSomeObject*>::iterator itBegin = NULL, std::vector<CSomeObject*>::iterator itEnd = NULL ); The Visual Studio ...
We are considering moving the win32 build of our cross-platform C++ application from MS Visual Studio 2003 to MS Visual Studio 2005. (Yes, very forward-looking of us ;) Should we expect to many code changes to get it compiling and working? ...
Does anyone have any experience migrating from one DBMS to another? If you have done this, why did you do it? Features? Cost? Corporate Directive? At times, I've worked with DBAs who insisted that we not use features specific to a DBMS (for example, CLR Stored Procedures in SQL Server.) The DBAs point is, if we use these features, it ...
Is it possible have a migration script automatically generate from a table schema in Doctrine? For example, during heavy development of new features, I will oftern build out my tables first while writing the initial code. I usually don't create a migration to start because the definition of the table may change as the feature is still ...
I'm trying to import a large SQL file; created by mysqldump on one server, then converted with iconv; using these commands: $ mysqldump -uxxx -p xxx > data.sql $ iconv -f UTF-8 -t ISO-8859-1//TRANSLIT data.sql data.iconv.sql I noticed that the "\x91" in the database had turned into "\xc3\x82\xc2\x91" in the dump, because mysqldump tri...
