I was unable to use native SVN connection in R2. After successful login and downloading files from SVN repository, PB threw error message "Could not add target because of bad library in ...pbt 

I assume this error refers to missing .pbl files. We do not store .pbl files in  SVN, don't they supposed to be created and loaded by PB ?

Thanks,

Yuri

Hi Yuri;

   What SVN software package are you trying to use with R2?

Chris, 



Not sure I understand your question. I am testing new feature of R2 - Native interface to Git & SVN

There are many variations of GIT & SVN software. What package are you using?

That's a new (and rather nice IMHO) feature of the Git and Subversion source control implementations.  In addition to the raw source code you do version the PBL files.  You also version the PBW file as well, which is also new.

You'll still be working with the raw source code files under the covers when you are doing edits and commits.  So you're not going to end up locking PBLs and keeping other developers from using them.

The main reason the PBW and PBLs are in source control is so another developer an do a "checkout" from source control and get everything they need to get started working with the code.  With the old MSSCCI interface, raw source code was the only thing that got versioned.  So when a new developer did a "checkout" that's all they got, raw source code.  They would either need to get a set of PBLs from another developer or generate the PBLs from source code.  That's no longer necessary.
