Re: New Programming Manual
 

Hello,

I read through your guide and it seems very complete and useful. I did notice that your version control section was lacking. My team has successfully set up a subversion server that intergrates into Netbeans. If your still working on the document, I would love to help you complete that section.

I've gotten git working as well (but not with NetBeans yet -- haven't tried). Might be useful for the *nix guys out there.

Well, still haven't seen the thread owner post back, but I'm going to try to write out a quick description of what our team did to set up the server for Netbeans in order to help all those teams out there the would like the info.

First, one needs to get a server. This can be done in two ways. One, use a free public hosting server service, like google code. Two, start your own apache server (If you know how to do that, you really don't need to be reading this). Google code project hosting is simple to set up and was used by our team last year to host our svn server.

Two, one needs to set up integration with netbeans. Instruction here are for Netbeans 6.9.1: Select the desired project to be used with subversion as the main project. From the Team menu option -> Subversion -> Import into repository. A series of windows will pop up that will ask you for the URL of the repository, username and password. The repository URL can be found for google code under the source tab usually of the form: https://projectname.googlecode.com/svn/trunk. Users have to be registered with the project and the password is the google code generated password that is provided. That should finish up configuring the repository.

To check out from the repository, one need to navigate to Team->Subversion->Checkout. Enter the URL, username, and password that can be found from above and checkout the project. Svn commands can be found by using the team menu option or by right clicking on the project name (Commit, Update)

-Any questions, just ask

Hi everyone!

I haven't checked Delphi in a while, I've been really busy with school and everything.

Because I posted both the pdf and the word, you should be able to edit it as you can come up with information/more clear explanations.

Brad Miller might be putting it up on the java section of First.wpi.edu
Unfortunately, I don't have any of the parts anymore because I'm at college, but anyone can update/test their ideas!

You set up the links correctly, but MS Word doesn't update automatically. Highlight the text with the link (you can "Select All" for the whole document) and hit F9 to "update field codes". I tried it on my downloaded copy and it seems to work fine.
