Import/Export of rulesets

Post by avonwyss » Mon Oct 01, 2007 6:49 am

Maybe I oversaw something, but I didn't find a way to store or retrieve customized / new rulesets (apart from directly going to the registry).

However, I would prefer our complete team to use the same ruleset. What I would therefore like is to be able to save and load the rulesets to a file, or even better, to be able to "mount" a file (or even a Vault-stored file) as ruleset (e.g. pointing to the file to be used as ruleset, so that one can use a file on a network drive or on a folder outside of the user profile, or even on a HTTP path)?

<p>I've been wanting to do this for a while now for a variety of reasons.
And I looked at putting it in for 3.1 (out this week), but there wasn't
time.
<p>I'll add your note to the bug/feature TODO list item that I have for it.
<p>I can't promise anything immediate, but hopefully I can get it into the next release.

Okay, perfect!

One thing I noted though is that - according to the About dialog - I have version 4.0.2. Which is obviously the version of Vault I did install.

To avoid confusions, it may be a good idea to keep the real DM version number in the Vault Client releases also, so that Vault users know what version of DM is really installed.
