  • NAME
      (n) -Develop_End - complete development of a change
  • SYNOPSIS
      (n) -Develop_End [ option ... ]
      (n) -Develop_End -List [ option ... ]
      (n) -Develop_End -Help
  • DESCRIPTION
      The (n) -Develop_End command is used to notify (n) of the completion of the development of a change.

      This command checks that you have successfully completed an '(n) -Build' command since any change source file was edited. See aeb(1) for more information.

      This command checks that you have successfully completed an '(n) -DIFFerence' command since any change source file was edited. See aed(1) for more information.

      This command checks that you have successfully completed an '(n) -Test' command since the last successful build, unless the change has a test_exempt attribute. This command checks that you have successfully completed an '(n) -Test -BaseLine' command, unless the change has a test_baseline_exempt attribute. This command checks that you have successfully completed an '(n) -Test -REGression' command, unless the change has a test_regression_exempt attribute. See aet(1) and aecattr(5) for more information.

      If the change includes the project config file, this command checks project file names, to make sure they conform to the maximum_filename_length and posix_filename_charset field settings. See aepconf(5) for more information.

      Successful execution of the command advances the change from the "being developed" state to the "being reviewed" state, by default. The develop_%end_%action project attribute controls which of the following 3 paths are taken. boxwid = 1 down S30: box invis "develop_end_action:" "goto_awaiting_review" S31: box "being" "developed" arrow " develop" ljust " end" ljust S32: box "awaiting" "review" arrow " review" ljust " begin" ljust S33: box "being" "reviewed" arrow " review" ljust " pass" ljust S34: box "awaiting" "integration"
      S20: box invis "develop_end_action:" "goto_being_reviewed" with .w at S30.e+(0.5,0) S21: box "being" "developed" arrow " develop" ljust " end" ljust down 1.5 S22: box "being" "reviewed" arrow " review" ljust " pass" ljust S23: box "awaiting" "integration" box invis "(This is the default.)"
      S10: box invis "develop_end_action:" "goto_awaiting_integration" with .w at S20.e+(0.5,0) S11: box "being" "developed" arrow " develop" ljust " end" ljust down 2.5 S12: box "awaiting" "integration" Please Note: the third alternative, skipping reviews altogether, should only be used for single person projects. All self-respecting commercial enterprise will avoid this alternative.

      Because branches may extend for many months or even years, it is common for the user who initiated the branch to be no longer with the project, or even the company.  For this reason, project administrators may end the development of branches.  For normal changes in this situation, use the aechown(1) command.

      The change is no longer considered assigned to the developer. Branches If you get an error message telling you that you can't end a branch because a file needs to be merged, see the Branching chapter of the Aegis User Guide for more information.

      While changes and branches are almost identical in the ways you manipulate them within Aegis, actual file changes must always be done in a change. Thus, it is necessary to create a new change on the branch and do a cross-branch grandparent merge before you will be able to develop-end a branch which is giving you this error. Notification On successful completion of the command, the develop_%end_%notify_%command field of the project attributes file is run, if set.  See aepa(1) and aepattr(5) for more information.
  • OPTIONS
      The following options are understood:
      -Change number
      This option may be used to specify a particular change within a project. When no -Change option is specified, the AEGIS_CHANGE environment variable is consulted. If that does not exist, the user's $HOME/.aegisrc file is examined for a default change field (see aeuconf(5) for more information). If that does not exist, when the user is only working on one change within a project, that is the default change number. Otherwise, it is an error.
      -Help

      This option may be used to obtain more information about how to use the (n) program.
      -List

      This option may be used to obtain a list of suitable subjects for this command. The list may be more general than expected.
      -Project name
      This option may be used to select the project of interest. When no -Project option is specified, the AEGIS_PROJECT environment variable is consulted. If that does not exist, the user's $HOME/.aegisrc file is examined for a default project field (see aeuconf(5) for more information). If that does not exist, when the user is only working on changes within a single project, the project name defaults to that project. Otherwise, it is an error.
      -TERse

      This option may be used to cause listings to produce the bare minimum of information. It is usually useful for shell scripts.
      -Verbose
      This option may be used to cause (n) to produce more output. By default (n) only produces output on errors. When used with the -List option this option causes column headings to be added.
      -Wait
      This option may be used to require (N) commands to wait for access locks, if they cannot be obtained immediately. Defaults to the user's lock_wait_preference if not specified, see aeuconf(5) for more information.
      -No_Wait
      This option may be used to require (N) commands to emit a fatal error if access locks cannot be obtained immediately. Defaults to the user's lock_wait_preference if not specified, see aeuconf(5) for more information.


      All options may be abbreviated; the abbreviation is documented as the upper case letters, all lower case letters and underscores (_) are optional. You must use consecutive sequences of optional letters.

      All options are case insensitive, you may type them in upper case or lower case or a combination of both, case is not important.

      For example: the arguments "-project, "-PROJ" and "-p" are all interpreted to mean the -Project option. The argument "-prj" will not be understood, because consecutive optional characters were not supplied.

      Options and other command line arguments may be mixed arbitrarily on the command line, after the function selectors.


      The GNU long option names are understood. Since all option names for (n) are long, this means ignoring the extra leading '-'. The "--option=value" convention is also understood.
  • RECOMMENDED ALIAS
      The recommended alias for this command is 
      
csh% alias aede '(n) -de \!* -v'
      

sh$ aede(){(n) -de "$@" -v}
  • ERRORS
      It is an error if
      the change is not assigned to the current user.


      It is an error if
      The change is not in the
      "being developed"
       state.


      It is an error if
      there has been no successful
      "'(n) -Build'"
       command since a change file was last edited.


      It is an error if
      there has been no successful
      "'(n) -DIFFerence'"
       command since a change file was last edited.


      It is an error if
      there has been no successful
      "'(n) -Test'"
       command since a change file was last edited.


      It is an error if
      there has been no successful
      "'(n) -Test -BaseLine'"
       command since a change file was last edited.
      It is an error if
      an read-only file is still copied into the change.
      Read-only files are to insulate
      a change from the baseline during development;
      they must be removed before development may end.
