Thank you; but I can't get this to work. I have the following in a
header in the file
/*============================================================================================================
$RCSfile: TimeFcns.c,v $
$Author: Copyright iMn MicroControl Ltd. - Robert Lewis$
Revision = "$WCREV$"
Modified = "$WCMODS?Modified:Not modified$"
Date = "$WCDATE$"
RevRange = "$WCRANGE$"
Mixed = "$WCMIXED?Mixed revision WC:Not mixed$"
URL = "$WCURL$"
$ID$
=============================================================================================================*/
I did the following:
1) committed a change to the file
2) did an update, nothing changed in the header
3) created a new directory, and checked out the code, and nothing
change in the header
4) selected the file with svn properties and added a file with the
above contents in the add dialog, committed the file, then updated.
Still nothing.
5) deleted the file, checked it out and still nothing
I can't get the keyword substitution to work, although that is exactly
what seems to be the solution.
What used to happen with CVS is that on every checkout the revision
number and all the other parameters was changed. This allowed us to
know what code was actually in the final build.
So any method is fine, if someone could give a working example or
explanation it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for all the
suggestions.
Regards
Robert
