Looking at the history of a file

You can check to see whether the files were checked in properly by looking at their history. Let's look at the history of a file.
In the Project Editor

  1. In the File List, highlight the file complex.C .
  2. Select the History check box (at the bottom of the tool).
    A new History window opens. For a discription of icons used, choose
    Help(?) > Quick Ref.

    Click for full size, then use Back button

    Since only one version of the project files has been checked in so far, the Version Tree only displays this version ( 1.1 ).
    INIT is used by SNiFF+ to refer to the initial version of a file in the Repository. The version number of the INIT version of a file is always 1.1 . The latest version on the main trunk or branch of a file's version tree is called HEAD . In this example, the HEAD and INIT versions of the file are naturally the same.

  3. In the Project Editor, clear the History check box to close the History window.
What's next
The next step is to open the project in your SOWE.
Although you can open projects in more than one working environment at a time, this tends to get confusing. We therefore suggest that you first close the project in the SSWE.
In the Launch Pad
To close the project in the SSWE:
  1. Highlight complex.shared - SSWE:Complex SSWE .
    You can see the name of the project and the working environment in which you opened it by increasing the size of the Launch Pad.
  2. Choose Project > Close Project complex.shared.
