filenames format in \sql\updates folder

Post by SaintPL »

Hi All,

I'd like to propose this a log time ago. As you can see, the content of \sql\updates folder is a bit messy. We can find there updates marked with a dates in a lot of date format.
What do you think about making a standard that will:
a) more clear for everyone
b) support the file sorting

It can contain the date of update in yyyymmdd format along with a DP revision. For example:
present filename: update10152006.sql
can be replaced with: 20061015-dp2197.sql
and merged with: 20061015-[dp2197].sql

If merge is not possible or not handy it can be marked with a proper letter (a, b, c...) as for one dp update we can have more than one sql update.

What do you think about this?

it makes sense and it was something we decided to try and do :)

most of us just look at when the file was created to work it out ;)
