Folks, I would like to suggest you (if you haven’t already) check out a paid product from the Foundation Shell App Store by Robert Livingston for a 4D database solution to storing the text from all your methods and object methods automatically.
ArchiveMethod <https://bowtie.mailbutler.io/tracking/hit/DB158AD1-C41D-4FDE-A44C-96F54999D529/AC9E34A4-0BAB-46C4-A2F3-F5B6CDBF858B/> for $97 compiled Robert has done a great job of solving version control for your 4D database methods. > ArchiveMethod is a 4D system that collects all your methods in your 4D > databases (as many as you want) into a single 4D database for version > control, documentation and archiving in a single location. This allows the > developer to monitor the changes over time and search for methods or code > they have used in the past. If you have ever wondered where your routine for > customizing mail addresses lives or what the latest version of your parsing > routine is – ArchiveMethod is the tool for you. > It is written by long-time 4D developer Dr. Robert Livingston to solve a need > he had for keeping track of all his database methods. It is now available for > all 4D programmers to use. He is always open to feature enhancements and > considers every request as an opportunity to improve the product. > The product includes complete user documentation as well as over-the-shoulder > video tutorials on best practices in using the ArchiveMethod system.
