Comparing different versions stored in svn
« on: April 25, 2009, 02:46:11 am »
Hello!

I use EA with svn repository (version controling). I would like to compare two different versions of the same model. In theory when clicking on package name and choosing Package control / Compare with Controlled Version, I run comparition tool. However I don't have the possibility to change baseline as one of previous versions of my model stored in svn repository. Option Manage Packages Baseline doesn't work. I have to add that I have Professional Edition EA.

Is there any change using Professional Edition to compare two versions of models stored in svn repository? More precisely I want to compare class models to detect new/removed classes/attributes/relations?

Thanks for help!

Baseline/Merge is not available in the Professional edition.

The Compare utility, to compare a model branch with an XMI file or controlled package, is available in the Professional edition.

What you can do to compare version X with version Y (both stored in SVN) is:
- Get version X from SVN
- Import version X into a new repository
- Get version Y from SVN
- Compare the imported package (version X) with the xmi file (version Y)
