Rajesh,
Agreed with the comment about lack of FORCED comments, but not the lack of
comments.  If you right click on an object, you can add a Version Control
Label, and if I'm not mistaken, when that object is saved to the log, that
Label and the Comments of the label go with it.  I would not agree with the
'lack of control'.  As you know, just because someone modifies code, doesn't
mean you want to include the changes into your production system.  This is
where your integration would move the items into the external system you
want...and along with the above labels and comments you can decide if you
want to include it or not, in the same manner you would with previous
versions integrations.

Regarding the 'very slow'...I would be curious to know what sort of metrics
you have on this....because of the fact that it's just a form and such you
should be able to turn on logging and see where the time is spent.  I have
this turned on in Dev and Prod with no noticeable slow down.  Any delay that
I can conceive of would be related to exporting the object to def and
storing it in the log...this time obviously depends on the size of the
object.  The servers I have right now have about a dozen developers working
on them every day.

Regarding 'less load'....if you add a process that must take place on every
save (which is what the modification log does) then you aren't dealing with
less load, you are adding to the load...in the case of the modification log,
the load is added to the server (which should be able to scale well)...as
opposed to the previous integrations which were client based and thus less
scalable.  If you wanted to write your integration with Eclipse Plugins, you
can certainly do that as well...I imagine you could write a plugin that
fires on save and kicks off a dialog collecting the information you want and
putting it into source control from there...but I would think that would be
'more load'...not less

7.5 also has object reservation...which is similar to 'check out'....so you
could have the integration (plugin) fire on the removal of the
reservation....

All of these are options that you can explore as you wish...most functions
have a price, in this case, there WILL be an added load somewhere, server or
client, but there will be a load associated.

Hello LJ,

Thanks for the quick response.

The Problem with the 'Object Modification Log' is that :
1. It saves the def file, without prompting for any user comments.
2. We do not have any control over the changes which we want to commit and
the ones which we want to ignore.

Please correct me if  i am wrong.

Also We have observer that the server becomes very slow if we have enabled
the Object Modification Log functionality as their are multiple people
working on the server simultaneously.


I need to have a source control which can be integrated with Remedy 7.5,
hence giving user the choice of committing the changes with proper comments
and also less load on the server.




Regards,
Rajesh kumar Shinde
