I've stumbled across this scenario before: A build engineer explained to me how he had requested the system admin team to create a symbolic link called <TOOL>...
Hello, ... Makefiles, etc. ... I disagree with you. Putting a version id inside a Makefile is not a good idea for the same reason that putting a version id of...
... Granted, but I stand by my claim that doing so is vastly superior to the alternative, which was "oral request to the IT staff". (Ignoring for a moment the...
I agree with Frank. In fact, I am working very hard to get that information out of our makefile and into CM. Simply put, the version control tool client should...
... It seems a good solution to me. Why didn't it make it to production? In fact, any solution that provides a single entry point to the tool (regardless of...

... It didn't go into production because it would have increased the complexity of "local builds" without any corresponding benefit. As we had it, developers...
Hmm. The responsible party for the "software configuration" of this email list might want to spend just a little more time checking the configuration of the...
... I like that idea. if I couldn't at least do that, what about something like ... A Tool_Config.mk or Env_Config.mk file that is "included" by the other make...
... That's pretty much what we had. The Makefiles were a series of files, variously #included. The tools config file specified the paths and versions, and was...
... I'm using make, fwiw. An example would be thus: We have a component, call it XXXdata. The component contains a makefile that builds XXX.cmp. Long ago, that...

Hi, There are 2 questions in the poll: - Where is our success? - What areas do you need more information? I do not understand how the options in the answer...
Would appreciate any information on what you use to track configuration items. I'm looking into whether there are COTS options, or whether we should build our...
... Could you say more about what kinds of CIs you are tracking? Are they Software CIs? Hardware CIs? Would these be CIs that you produce or which are provided...
For me the software architecture is the blueprint of a software product. It identifies the breakdown structure and the capabilities of reuse. Configuration...
I think Brad tried to consider CM as the mathematical "derivative" of the architecture, which would make architecture the mathematical "integral" of CM. CM =...
We would be storing information about hardware and software CIs, all the way down to the settings on boxes and that type of thing. These CIs are typically...

Hi Shayne, ... The amount of job postings is about 15% during the last month, if you count all replies to threads as separate messages. According to the poll...
