Is there a way to work with a copy of Developer that has a solution with sample data but is not linked to any of it’s normally associated SQL databases?
Good question,
If there is answer for this issue then it will be very much helpful for me also.I also searching the answer for the same question.I think if this above query is answered then its useful to many developers.
Answers are welcomed.
Sure there is!
Temporarily disabling the normal server connections in Servoy Developer.
Make sure there is/are alternative server connections available.
Re-import the solution under a different name (clean import).
The import will complain it can’t find the defined server and you make a choice for the alternative connection.
Import sample data and you are set to go.
One thing to note is that, when you do this in the same repository, the style sheets are a repository wide thing and not a per solution thing.
Discussed many times on the forum I am sure…
Or you simply disable the connection, rename it and create new ones with the original name and point that to your (local) sample database.
This way you can simply switch between local and remote databases (after relaunching).
Of course things like Servoy managed sequences should be taken in consideration.
Hope this helps.
