Req. New Feature: Quick deploy

oscar_f

Hello

I'm a lazy guy,

and  when I started to use SM I immediatly got bored during the debugging:

there were a lots of  steps to do  manually each time  I made a modification...

 

why do not add a new  button in the ribbon  : "Quick Deploy" which will do:

1)Close FlexPendant (if it is running)

2)Save SM project

3)Build new solution

4)Deploy new solution

5)Restart FlexPendant

Hello,

This information may be helpful to you:

 

1. Build will save the project if not already saved. So step 2 is not mandatory always to be carried out.

2. When deploying check is made of Virtual FlexPendant is running and can be closed during deploy. So step 1 is not mandatory always to be carried out.

3. Restart FlexPendant after deploy would not be always the right solution because we would be dealing with both real and virtual flexpendants. There may be a risk invloved. Its more applicable while working with virtual flexpendant.

 

Thanks

So, 

it is necessary to :

1)Build

2)deploy

3)restart Virtual FlexPendant

 

It is possible to recognize if the controller is virtual and then start virtual FP...
