>>So tell me, how do you currently cope with multiple developers wanting to make changes to the same file?
I am just moving from a ONE developer environment to a COUPLE OF developers "team", this is why I used the term "Simple". ;-) >>Do they download the file from a central server and then make their changes? No, everyone has a complete set of files on his PC, develop and test on it, then upload modification on the server, when everything work fine. Then others are warned and the get the new files by FTP from the server. Usually, I create a new sub-directory for any new module to develop, but there are a certain number of files that a common to all modules, like custom tags, application.cfm, language specific text files, etc. >>Do you restrict developers from working on the same files often? Yes, but generally for a short period of time, and we deal with this by telephone or eMail. I was just imagining that there could exist some more efficient method for programmers ;-) >> What if they both actually need to work on the same file over the course of a day or two day's worth of work, do they spend all day juggling the file back 'n forth? The longer they have to work on a file, the more likely they are alone to work on it, so it is not a problem. In this case, the file is locked only for security, it is not really a restriction. -- _______________________________________ REUSE CODE!
