Hi all,
I am using SVN to control its sequence file versions.
All steps in the sequence files are steptypes. And they all are settable via edit steps.
One problem is that, when you set your step via edit steps, TS UI isn't refreshed so the programmer might think that the edit step failed programming the step.
See this NI TestStand Idea Exchange thread : http://forums.ni.com...p/idi-p/1753456 (please Kudo if you think the idea is great... ).
So NI advices to generate an IncChangeCount to force TS to refresh its interface. This method makes the sequence file to be seen as 'changed' (star next to its name in the TS tabs).
When launching an edit step, it loads the current programmed values of the step to display them on the edit step interface. If the user doesn't change them and the IncChangeCount is generated, then the file is seen modified ( ) and the 'Change counter' is incremented.
In these conditions, SVN doesn't detect any change to the file !!
This would mean that the 'change counter' is not stored in the file... Do you have any idea on where it could be stored ?
