Tab Items

Use compression for data transfer

Uses compression for data transfer. Using Dynam-Zlib, files are compressed before being transmitted and uncompressed when received. File compression is an optional feature.

Use delta transfer for data transfer

Uses Delta transfer technology to transfer data. In non-LAN connection, it can speed up the file transfer greatly.

Use read-only flag for files that are not checked out

Changes the write attribute of the local file copies to be read-only when you perform the following operations: Get Latest Version, Add, Check In, or Undo Check Out.

Replace writable files

Specifies the way to handle the writable local files.

• Ask: Displays the Replace Writable Files dialog box.
   
• Replace: Replaces (overwrites) the writable local files.
   
• Skip: Leaves the local files alone (not retrieving the latest version from the server)
   
• Merge: Attempts a three-way merge if the file has been checked out by multiple users including you and your local file version number is smaller than that on the server. Besides, skips the local file copy.

Check in unchanged files

Specifies the way to handle unchanged files.

• Check In: Increases version number even if no changes is made to the file.
   
• Undo Check Out: Undoes the checkout of the files and keeps the old version number.
   
• Ask: Displays the Check In Unchanged File dialog box.

End-of-Line terminator

The EOL Terminator may need to be changed if the operating system where the working folders reside differs from the operating system Dynamsoft SourceAnywhere Hosted Client is currently running on.

The options for end-of-line terminator are as follows:

• Windows(\r\n)
• Unix(\n)
• Mac(\r)

Note: The EOL Terminator will not take effect if your local file copy is the same as that in the repository.

Temporary files

• Setting Folder for Temporary Files
  Specifies the folder you want Dynamsoft SourceAnywhere Hosted to store temporary files. Type the full path in this text box or click Browse to select one.

• Delete all temporary files

Note: Creating your Temp folder locally, rather than on the network, may increase the performance of Dynamsoft SourceAnywhere Hosted.
