One of our development groups has introduced JCAPS (formerly eGate,
formerly ICAN and now owned by Sun). They claim that JCAPS is a
completely integrated GUI source repository, ide, and build environment
with no command line interface and no useful way to export code.
If that's true, then we will be forced to setup a JCAPS repository and
keep it branched and labeled in sync with our Perforce repository that
holds the rest of the product code. It could also prevent us from
performing push button builds which we currently use to build and label
all our Perforce source when building a project. The only way around
this would be to find some automation tool to drive the GUI.
Does anyone have any experience with this product and whether or not it
is possible to store the source in Perforce somehow. I'm also
interested in any suggestions or experiences that people might have had
with similar difficulties related to source management and automated
builds.
Thanks in advance,
Jeff
