No arguments there, Fernando. I was replying to Fred's comment about using SVN with the PM.
I've been using SccTextX for years and use it to generate text files from VFP binary source code both externally and via the PM. I can also use COM automation with my diffing tool of choice (Araxis Merge) and have all that wrapped in little VFP programs. It should be easy enough to change the _SCCTEXT VFP system setting to point to FoxBin2 instead of SccTextX; I just haven't had any significant issues using SccTextX so taking out the time to test your solution hasn't been a priority for me. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. :-) Having said that, if I did have the time and ability to move on from VSS to another SCC provider like SVN, while retaining the PM integration, that would be a good opportunity to investigate replacing SccTextX with FoxBin2. -- rk -----Original Message----- From: ProfoxTech [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Fernando D.

But for VFP binary conversions it delegates the job on an external component like SccText(X), TwoFox or any program that can generate a text view from the binaries (I suppose that you can configure FoxBin2Prg <https://vfpx.codeplex.com/wikipage?title=FoxBin2Prg> too). Adventage of external components for text generation is that they let you use any modern SCM or DVCS tool. _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/DF1EEF11E586A64FB54A97F22A8BD04423C36373E9@ACKBWDDQH1.artfact.local ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
