Re: [Flashcoders] [OT] SCM/Project management tool
Hey guys, thank you all for the replies, it really helped me on deciding which one to choose. After some research, I've found trac to be the one with most advantages. Before closing the thread, I would like to ask a few question about trac and flash projects: * How do you handle projects that consists of a client (flash) and a server written in another language? A trac enviroment for both of them? * About the syntax highliting, is there support for AS2/AS3? Marcelo.

Re: [Flashcoders] [OT] SCM/Project management tool
Hi Chris, It entirely depends on the project. There's an optional FTP task (requires some extra libs) that comes with Ant which we use for simple file uploads. Off the top of my head, we've used combinations of: - hand-written calls to SVN (i.e. using the exec task) to update and to tag - writing/reading of .properties files (to maintain build numbers etc.) using the property task - the optional FTP task - the Zip task for creating single-file packages (to, for example, send a server install/distribution to a client) - integration with NSIS (more exec tasks) to build Windows installers (for Flash projectors) - even, sometimes, simple copies across Windows/Samba fileshares for deployment In the past we've written our own extensions to Ant to make some of the tasks much simpler in Ant syntax; but over time (as Ant has developed) we moved away from that. At the place I worked four or five years ago we had a lot more integration on the server side; e.g. you checked in your shared classes and a hook (in CVS, in those days) fired off a server-side test suite and a rebuild of the API documentation based on those classes; but we've not had a need (yet!) for that here.

Re: [Flashcoders] [OT] SCM/Project management tool
Hi Marcelo, We use trac/wvn for all our projects and it works very well for us; and it does support simple user/password authentication. The only downside is that trac is designed to host only one project - multiple projects mean multiple databases (if you want to seperate tickets etc.) and there's no reporting across the multiple databases. To get around this we've written a very simple front-end which collates all the 'outstanding tickets' RSS info into one web page, so each developer can see what's on his ToDo list. :-) It's working very well.

Re: [Flashcoders] [OT] SCM/Project management tool
Hi Marcelo, SVN handles binary data in the same way as most versioning systems i.e. not very well. (although better than CVS). The trouble is that SVN has no built-in knowledge of what a binary file (such as a fla) _is_, or how to compare it to previous versions; it only knows that the file has changed, but doesn't know what has changed (to do so would mean including a complete .fla parser in the SVN code). On the flip side, we've had no problems with SVN and .fla files - we just use it to store them as we would any other binary asset. As long as your project files are organised sensibly and you store the bulk of your code as external .as files, you should be fine. As an aside, later versions of TortoiseSVN (which we use for keeping things in sync on our local machines) have diff views for some types of images, which is neat. The trac interface will give you previews of .jpg files and the like, but won't do so for .flas or .swfs. It sounds like we're doing similar sorts of projects to you, tho', with some flas being used for layouts and assets, and we've coped fine using trac without having to do any special workarounds for binaries.

Re: [Flashcoders] [OT] SCM/Project management tool
Sorry, just saw this post, hope i'm not being redundant or too OT. We use trac, but we don't use it with clients, only internally. We could potentially allow client access, but our custom-built system doesn't have much in the way of access control. Checking out the permissions page in my WebAdmin plugin, trac has the following priveleges you can grant deny on a per user/group basis: view/create/modify/grant/delete/admin/etc. (depends on item) on milestone/report/ticket/trac/wiki/log/file/etc. And we love Trac and Subversion. Definitely worth every penny ;) Peace C Marcelo de Moraes Serpa wrote: Oh Ok.. thanks for the help!

I apologize, but I said grant / deny, but you can only grant privileges in Trac. Chris Hill wrote: Sorry, just saw this post, hope i'm not being redundant or too OT.

RE: [Flashcoders] [OT] SCM/Project management tool
If you're looking for bug/feature tracking for your clients, check out Mantis. It's easy to set up, customize (if you know php), and best of all, it's free.

Re: [Flashcoders] [OT] SCM/Project management tool
Hi Steven, Mantis seems to be a good alternative to Trac. It seems to have all the features trac has plus a bunch more and still is simple and effective. I'm having problems installing mod_pythin on my cpanel enabled server so I'm considering other tool to use, and Mantis is certainly attractive :) Marcelo.
