Have "make" report all the commands run as it goes

export QUIET_MAKE=" "

Environment variable QUIET_MAKE will cause make print all the executed commands to STDOUT.

Set it to space: " ".

Press "Ctrl" key while starting Java client to get a debug window

Will see the path searched, log files locations, LAX version, where the preferences are read from etc.

How to find the original process that owns / created the locks as shown by "ccm monitor -showlocks" (Synergy work tip)

Step 1:  show locks

Ø  ccm monitor -showlocks

Locked objects --

/data/synergydb//db+1306154

       ---> myserver:58903:132.106.241.41

Step 2:  find the sessions, including session owner

Ø  ccm ps -engine_address myserver:58903:132.106.241.41

Processes with engine_address = myserver:58903: 132.106.241.41, ...

1 processes located:

----------------------

rfc address (moses.corp.something.com:46106:10.140.2.182)

        process (cmd_interface)

        callback (ciserver:cb_init)

        display ()

        display_name (Classic Command Interface)

        pid (21295)

        user (mybuild)

        host (moses.corp.something.com)

        host_addr ()

        msg_handler_1 (uissys:message_handler)

        database (/data/synergydb//db)

        engine_address (myserver:58903:132.106.241.41)

How to set up the security read restrictions to all the members of specific project that belong to original component but not to other known components

•  ccm set role group_mgr
• ccm query -i group (this bring us the grop name)
•  ccm query "is_member_of('PROJNAME#<proj ver>') and type !='dir' and is_associated_object_of(cvtype='task' and release match '*') and not is_associated_object_of(cvtype='task' and release match 'COMP1*' or release match 'COMP2*' or release match 'COMP3*')" -u -f "%objectname %task_release %task" > compname_only.list
• ccm groups -a -v :readsource @ (this actually adds the group attribute with a read restriction)
• ccm set rile developer

E          Related: Synergy groups: setting up read-only access to sources of specific project that come from specific releases only.

Synergy conflilcts: "parallel, not included"

Conflicts report a lot of files, all belong to a single task, the task
is for release that is not in process rules (reconfigure properties).

Here is how to find:

1. List all the objects of the offending task (35742):
> ccm task -show objects  35742  -u -f %objectname >  35742 .obj

2. Query for all the immediate successors of the task objects:
> for obj in `cat  35742 .obj`;do ccm query "has_predecessor('$obj')" -f
"%objectname %task_release" >> successors;done

3. Grep the list for objects of your current release:
> grep 27.0.3.20 successors

2) trroute.c#KUKU_27.0.3.20.1:csrc:3 KUKU_27.0.3.20

End of story.

ccm ps -host gives you the command currently running on a specific database!

> ccm ps –host myhost

rfc address (myhost:36996:131.120.211.116)

        process (engine)

        callback (engine_startup:cb_init)

        platform (unix)

        pid (15767)

        user (mybuild)

        host (myhost)

        host_addr ()

        ui_address (client.corp.company.com:53851:10.213.1.130)

        database (/data/synergydb/mydb/db)

        reconfigure (1/project/KU110/Appl_1.11.08DL_B,1/project/KU110/Appl_1.11.08DL_B)

Set up Synergy Linux client to use non-default merge tool (work tip Synergy merge compare)

To customize merge and compare utilities for Synergy Java client running on Linux:

1. Exit java client.

2. Assuming you use BeyondCompare as a merge and compare tool, and it is installed as /usr/bin/bcompare

 Add into ~/.ccm.user.properties file the following lines:

  unix.tool.merge.ascii=/usr/bin/bcompare %file1 %file2 -mergeoutput\=%outfile

  unix.tool.compare.ascii=/usr/bin/bcompare %file1 %file2

Changes will have an effect when Synergy starts next time.
