XMLSpy® 2009 includes support for various XML document and schema repository interfaces, as well as major version control systems. This offers enhanced groupware and collaboration features, which are directly accessible from within XMLSpy® 2009, as described below.

Source Control Support

XMLSpy® 2009 includes the capability to bind any XMLSpy® 2009 project to a project in a centralized version control or source control system. View the complete list of supported source control systems.

The Source Control menu makes it easy to work with your choice of version control system. Please see the XMLSpy Help file for complete details.

Once a project is bound to a version control system, XMLSpy® 2009 automatically monitors the status of all files and prompts the user to check out a file whenever he/she starts to modify the document. In addition, the actual state of each file is shown through checkmarks or locks in the upper left-hand corner of each file icon.

This allows a team or workgroup to collectively work on a set of XML documents with proper version and access control. Since most version control systems support many document types, seamless management of XML documents, schemas, and XSLT stylesheets can be achieved using the same proven tools already commonly used by C++, Visual Basic, Java, and Web developers.

The repository and source control features are tightly integrated with the XMLSpy® 2009 project management features, which allow you to group your files and frequently used URLs into logical folders for easy access in the project window.
