Subversion / Subclipse. Like PVCS it is a versioning system.

SVN is some what similar to CVS (Version controlling tool).
I have followed the instructions that are provided in the below post
http://www.mqseries.net/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=28067 but its not working in SVN.
So, my question is can we automatically update the version in SVN? |

We are not able to set the version dynamically for the message flows. We use CVS and have a plug in that interacts with the broker toolkit. Following are the steps we followed
1) Right clicked the message flow background selected Properties.
2) In Version typed $id$ (We also tried $Id$).
3) Saved the message flow and checked the message flow project in CVS.
4) Checked out the message flow and added it to the bar file. (We were expecting the CVS version to be seen but we see $Id$ in the bar file under version. )
5) The same thing is seen when the flow is deployed.
Are we missing something? Can someone please help? |

I've seen this behaviour on previous projects where we used CVS and / or PVCS, where some message flows containing $Id$ (or the equivalent for that version control system) in the message flow properties were never replaced when it went into the version control system.
I'm guessing that there must be something about the way the .msgflow files are saved that occasionally causes the substitution string to be broken up somehow, meaning SVN/CVS/PVCS/whatever can't find the string to do the replacement on. But that is really just a guess on my part rather than any hard facts.
In our case it was an irritation rather than a show-stopper, so we didn't bother investigating further. If it is a real problem for you, perhaps you should raise a PMR with IBM to discuss it, and see if there are any workarounds / fixes. |

Hi,
To make keyword substitution work you have to change ascii/binary property to ASCII -kkv for you flows and esql files etc.
And for sub flows you have to use Passthrough node and its Label property and perhaps give a unique keyword based on for example sub flows name ($MQSI test_subflow.msgflow=$Revision: 1.0 $ $Date: 2008/09/04 08:40:00 $ $Author: marko $ MQSI$)
And commit flows and esql:s to cvs before you build a bar.
That works at my env.

| Thanks Marko. Changing the property was what we needed to do. |
