One of the most basic tasks that a developer or even one of our designers or UI/UX integrator must undertake (yes, we’re large enough to have these…) is logging and documenting what they may have changed in a development project, basecamp, CVS or other system.
Here is an example of a log (info changed to protect the innocent (website)
Developer: Thomas Granger
2-28-05: Installed 2.2 Code base for OSC.
3-1-05: Configured OSC Store, Tax tables and administration
3-2-05: Installed USAePAY SDK and MID/TIDs, modified Code base :
Added to : /ecatalog/admin/includes/functions/general.php:
// Alias function for Store configuration values in the Administration Tool
function tep_cfg_select_multioption($select_array, $key_value, $key = '') {
for ($i=0; $i<sizeof($select_array); $i++) {
$name = (($key) ? 'configuration[' . $key . '][]' : 'configuration_value');
$string .= '<br><input type="checkbox" name="' . $name . '" value="' . $select_array[$i] . '"';
$key_values = explode( ", ", $key_value);
if ( in_array($select_array[$i], $key_values) ) $string .= ' CHECKED';
$string .= '> ' . $select_array[$i];
}
$string .= '<input type="hidden" name="' . $name . '" value="--none--">';
return $string;
}
