| 19 | <h1>Code Management System</h1> |
|---|
| 20 | |
|---|
| 21 | <p>The code management commands provided by FCM are generally wrappers around |
|---|
| 22 | the underlying Subversion commands intended to add functionality or make the |
|---|
| 23 | system easier to use. Most of the wrappers are very simple and you can find |
|---|
| 24 | all the information you need from the <a href= |
|---|
| 25 | "../user_guide/command_ref.html">command reference section</a> of the FCM |
|---|
| 26 | User Guide and from the source code (which all resides within the Perl |
|---|
| 27 | package <a href= |
|---|
| 28 | "http://www-nwp/~fcm/FCM/src/lib/Fcm/Cm.pm"><em>Fcm::Cm</em></a>. |
|---|
| 29 | This section describes the few areas which merit further discussion.</p> |
|---|
| 30 | |
|---|
| 31 | <h2><a name="prompts">Interactive Prompts</a></h2> |
|---|
| 32 | |
|---|
| 33 | <p>Several of the commands prompt for further information interactively. This |
|---|
| 34 | is done using the function "&main::get_input". This allows a different |
|---|
| 35 | version of the function to be used depending on the calling program. When |
|---|
| 36 | called by the main <tt>fcm</tt> script this function simply prompts for |
|---|
| 37 | information on the command line. However, when called from |
|---|
| 38 | <tt>fcm_gui_internal</tt> (which runs commands within the GUI) this function |
|---|
| 39 | uses a dialog box generated using Perl-Tk.</p> |
|---|
| 40 | |
|---|
| 41 | <p>This design ensures that the main <tt>fcm</tt> command has no dependency |
|---|
| 42 | on the Perl <em>Tk</em> module.</p> |
