Dispatching Your Work
Dispatch consists of making public the work carried out from a private workspace, or the work of participants in a collaborative workspace.
Dispatch allows:
a user to make available to other users the modifications he/she has made to the repository.
users of a collaborative workspace to make available to other users the modifications they have made to the repository.
other users to have these updates available when they open a new workspace, whether this be after dispatch, refresh or discard of their current private workspace.
Dispatch:
executes an update of the HOPEX repository and the system repository.
creates a new workspace for the user containing all updates since creation of his/her previous private workspace.
Note that only one user can dispatch at a time. When several users dispatch their work at the same time, a dialog box appears asking the user if he/she wants to queue his/her dispatch. This allows the user to exit HOPEX without having to wait until the works from other queued private workspaces are dispatched.
