How Can Multiple Programmers Work on Same Project?

Hello All,

We've been asked this question several times, usually by people with broken VIs, and lost code.

So, I posted some of my thoughts and recommendations, and a video from a session done in Oakville Ontario this past week.

Find the video here: http://www.lvmastery.com/TipJar2009-01-27

In this blog entry, I discuss how multiple programmers can work together on the same project:
  • Communicate!
  • Split the tasks: dont all work on the same portion of the code
  • Take advantage of separate SubVIs and Typedefs
  • Make sure your files are where you think they are: files tab in project screen
  • How to split up the Robot Typedef into separate sub-typedefs
  • How to replace and "resynchronize" your project after changes are made
  • Backup code by zipping the entire project directory

Regards,
Ben
