saving a spectre_state directory as a cellview

we've noticed that when ADE saves a spectre_state directory it deletes
the existing dir and then saves a new version. we'd prefer it if ADE
just overwrote over the existing files rather than deleting (we're
versioning that dir and we need to maintain important dot files). is
there a way around this?

is there a pre/post state save we could use to put the files somewhere
safe
and then move them back after the save has completed? that would be
one way.,

How are you versioning it? Are you using one of the integrated DM
systems (e.g. Enovia MatrixOne DesignSync, IC Manage, Cliosoft SOS or
MethodICs VersIC)? Or VersionSync/TDM (if using IC5141)?

Andrew.

We're using MethodICs VersIC with a Subversion backend repository. SVN
keeps important meta-data in the directories it versions so when ADE
deletes the existing spectre_state directory we lose all that. This is
a non-issue with a VersIC/Perforce backend since there is no metadata
in the local workspace.

Hi,

please try 5.10.41.500.5.99 or newer.

There is a new public env var stateOverWriteSkipList. The user can specify all
files/dirs that should not be deleted while overwriting any ADE state as a
value of this env var (space separated list of dirs/files in string form like
dir1 file1 file6). Deleting rest of files/dirs inside state directory while
overwriting state.


Regards,
Marc

Sorry - I should have spotted it was you Simon. Anyway, Marc's suggestion is
a good one.

Andrew.
