Hi
We have all our projects running on a (Mac OS X) server, on which the Sybase or Postgres database server is running as well. Now, as a trial, I created a new project which I like to have in the local servoy_repository, i. e. in the repository on my MacBook Pro as well as connecting to the locally (on my MBP) running instance of Sybase. I did that in the very same Servoy Eclipse (Version 4.1).
Now I get the following message when I try to continue work on the server based apps again. I just don’t understand what they are telling me.
As I have a servoy_10.0.1.2_resources folder in the servoy_workspace, I would have expected a new folder something like servoy_localhost_resources where I can switch between them. The second message points in this direction, as it doesn’t seem to find the resource project (any more).
I also noticed earlier that the repository_server within Eclipse is set to localhost, although we use the repository on the server.
How can I switch between a local project (with local db server) and projects on a server (with db servers running on the server as well)?
Regards, Robert
Robert,
Currently, Servoy really only supports 1 repository location to be used for the instance.
Since we are storing the repo information in the servoy.properties file in the installation directory, servoy likes to have only 1 repo provider for the installation.
We are planning to change storing the repo information (and other information currently stored at the installation) in the workspace.
When that is changed, it is best to have a workspace for your local projects, 1 for your svn projects and 1 for each remote repository you are using.
At this moment you can have a separate installation of Servoy for your local projects to workaround the problem.

Hello Rob
Thanks for clarifying this. Canyou already give an idea for which release, i. e. in which timeframe you think we get the new repository possibilities?
Could you also clarify the following: In Servoy 4.1 (Developer), under Database Servers > repository_server connection, the in our local (developer’s machines) Servoy 4.1 repository_server connection the URL is: jdbc:sybase:Tds:localhost:2638?ServiceName=servoy_repository&CHARSET=utf8
so one would assume it points to the local repository, but we are working on the (Mac OS X) server, not on the local machine. On the local machine is only the Servoy 4.1 Developr installed. I assume that when checking out from the repository, by entering the IP address, for example 10.0.1.2, Servoy makes a servoy_10.0.1.2_resources folder in the workspace and THERE is the information about the repository stored. Is this correct and where exactly is it stored?
