SVN - Checkout a Solution

Checkout a Solution
In this exercise, you will learn how to check out a project from a repository. However, to make the experience more authentic, you'll first create a new Eclipse Workspace and switch into it. This approach will effectively simulate a second developer who is going to checkout the project that you've just shared.

1. On your file system, create a new blank folder called developer_2
2. In Servoy Developer, select from the menu bar, File > Switch Workspace > Other...

1. From the Workspace Launcher dialog, select Browse... and choose the folder that you've just created and click OK.

...Now you are ready to checkout the solution as if you are a second developer.

1. Return to the SVN Repository Exploring perspective. You can use the illustrated shortcut to switch to recent perspectives

1. Expand the Trunk folder and right-click the svnExample solution and select Checkout... from the contextual popup menu.

1. Use the default settings and click Finish. The project will be downloaded from the repository and assembled in the new workspace.

1. Repeat the previous steps for the resources project
2. Return to the Servoy Design perspective. Expanding the All Solutions node, right-click the new solution and select Activate Soution from the contextual popup. You should see the same solution with the same revision information as before.
