Title: Local path in tab "Files" of class
Post by: Michal C. on June 24, 2010, 06:11:05 pm

Hi

We use Control Version on projects. In dialog "Package Control Options" we specify XMI filename using "Local Path". This is usefull, because each user can define local path for working copy.
But problem is with "Files" tab on properties of class dialog. In "File path" field I can't use Local Path.
This mean, that links to files can't be used on users workstation (Launch button) beacause users have different paths to working copy.

Is it problem to enable Local Path in this place?
Or is any solution?

Hi,

this problem was reported "years" ago and changes were promised but it is still not solved.
I can not find the discussion thread now but I vote for this behavior again too.

I believe it has been implemented and just needs to undergo appropriate testing before being accepted into a release.

Hi Simon,

...three years later....

Is it problem to enable Location %xx% from version control in Local Path ?

Like XMI Filename: %MyRepo%\Class Model.xml ?
