Development 1/20
Well, I finally started doing some work on the SCC interface. Currently coding the objects to fit into the interface model that Edit currently uses. Work seems to be going fairly well. Was able to get most of the higher level objects created for actually getting items and projects and also the UndoCheckOut and CheckOut items coded and unit tested.
The big test will come when we try to integrate the component and actually let the user assign SCC items to schema items since the interface is very different, ie. you can only see one SCC project at a time. However, we may store projects that the user has used in the past and allow these to be treated as sibling folders to provide some manner of easier access, but the user will still have to go through the standard SCC interface when mapping to a new project. I'll keep the blog posted with the progress.
