We are a team of several developers, working with several modules, using the (default) Sybase server.
Now, when we try to open a solution that includes a “master”-module and someone has this master-module in layout-mode, Servoy does not proceed (waits apparently for the database).
Our solution is, to ask all developers to exit the layout-mode.
Anyone with comparable experiences (and a more adequate solution)? Maybe another databasemanager that handles record-locking more efficiently? Maybe Postgress (the greatest)???
Be aware, that Servoy is NOT build for this!!!
object loss can happen.
Multi-developer will be introduced in Servoy 3.1, I think. Servoy is working on it!
We assure that a module is opened by only one developer to prevent object-loss and we can not wait for v3.1.
Do you work in a (small) developer-team and have you found a solution for this lock-issue?
No, work allways with separate repositories, (because of the object-loss) and bring everything back into one repositorie at the end.
We do not encounter the problem of object-loss.
But, we regularly have to request the other developers to leave design-mode, which is quite annoying.
I wonder whether other databasemanagers have better handling of locking
